February 2016 AOS Filers

[EandM 20]

Nope. Nada. I'm in a more specific situation than the rest of you guys I think. This EAD approving process is taking longer than I expected this time around. I already have a EAD card from my OPT via F1 visa and it only took 75ish days.

EDIT: Actually now that you got me wondering, does a RFIE/RFE notice show up in your online myUSCIS account? Under "Case History". I'm seriously hoping I didn't miss a RFIE mail.

im the same case as you im adjusting from F1 and i had an ead for opt. I got approved for the aos ead last week though

I am definitely hope I don't have to call them cuz it's a pain to have to call I am just happy that the last person I spoke to was nice, ya she told me about the 75 day rule so urs would be on the 16th of May as the 75th day , worse comes to worse if we don't get our EAD/AP by then I'll let you know what they told me

OK girl . Tks ... !! Waiting just sucks. We can't do with out ead or gc accept being pretty house b***s lmao

Hello - I can't seem to find the person who posted about the 4 weeks for SSN. It happened to me too, they said they could not find me in the system. Not sure why.

Also for those wondering about RFIE and EAD/AP, I got an RFIE, sent a response immediately and had my EAD/AP approved 13 days later and also received my card 3 days after the approval. A Combo.

My RFIE was an error on Form I-864 and they wanted our 1040 for 2014 OR 2015.

Congrats!!!

Thank you MASH! I'm sure you will get yours soon!!

Thanks a lot minina!! Please update tomorrow! We're planning to go to SSA next week

I sure will!! I have heard from experts on VJ that it is best to wait at least 1 or 2 weeks so that the new work authorized status appears properly in the database. I got approved on the 19th, 10 days sounds decent to me. But if I have any trouble tomorrow I will let you know... My only concern is that now that my GC was approved yesterday, I wonder if that is going to affect the process at all as I was reading that there are 3 different types of SSN. who knows I will find out tomorrow

very quiet in here today!

I was thinking the same!

Also I forgot who it was, but someone in here (simonbln maybe?) has their AOS interview tomorrow, good luck! Let us know how it goes.

looks like we will have to wait too, don't want to screw this up again as we screwed our chance to get ssn when i just got here.. I just can't wait to get my license so i won't be stuck at home all day!

I see it on your timeline! you got a super fast process! Congrats! mine is stuck at the same status...no updates, nothing......

While we are on the topic of SSN's. Do we need to get a new after being approved for GC (ie. are we supposed to get one that doesn't state valid for work only with DHS authorization?)

Yepp.. They told me to come back as soon as i receive the gc.

And about waiting.. I went there the day after received the ead . No problem at all and 4 days later i received it..

I went to get my SSN yesterday and the lady said to wait for a few weeks ( she seemed uncomfortable when she told us to wait for it in the mail ). Lesson learned from yesterday (maybe just for LA) get there early ! We arrived there before the door was opened and there already a long line !
