Hm weird...I got two separate letters, one for AP and one for EAD even though the EAD letter mentioned that AP was also approved.

I received two separate letters. 1 was for AP was approved. One was for ead was approved. Then a third that said combo card was approved. So don't panic yet. I think they are just auto generated as things get approved.

What's strange about mine is that the are no updates on the website

Actually, that's not strange at all. The website isn't updated frequently AT ALL imo--I've heard of people already receiving their EAD/AP cards and then the website suddenly updates with a tracking number even though they already have the card. I'm sure everything is fine

64 days and no news, I've been impatient since about day 50! Any filers from 29 Feb heard anything?

Today was a very hard day for me

I know I am trying hard to be positive about the EAD/AP an I still am but I just wish it would just come cause as of now I need to get out my husbands family home as the mother is now becoming more controlling and tells me I have to do the cooking and cleaning for her now since I am living in her home rent free and take care of her mother while she is out doing her thing ..so much stress and that I went to the doctors this morning I didn't want to say anything to my family or anyone I was pregnant till I was more months into the pregnancy but seeing the doctor they said there is no longer a heartbeat and advised me I have a low chance of having a baby go into full term and that alone shattered me to pieces as since I was 5 my dream was to be a mom and the sec I come back to the home his mother is telling me to do all this or I have to go get a cash paying job and give her rent or she will kick me n my husband out

Idk how anyone can be this heartless, I knew she didn't like me at first cause of my background but I thought after 8 years of getting to know me she would change , I'm honestly in tears and I'm hoping me n my husband can move out soon but without my EAD we won't have enough to survive on our own as the money he makes is mainly enough for our groceries and his bills

I'm sorry to write all of this but I didn't know where else to type and I need advice on what to do as I don't want to worry my family back home

Mash, I am so so sorry to hear what happened to you! I know how bad you feel now. I know how hard life could be. But you have to be strong, and I am sure you will get your EAD very very soon. Things will work, everything will change very very soon. I wish to hear your EAD ASAP. Don't let others make you sad. You will gain your life soon. We are all here to support you!

I got my noa on 2nd of Feb and still haven't heard about my EAD. I've called and just get told they are behind etc even though most people that filed later have theirs. I'm getting tired of waiting too. I had a RFIE for I-485 and they received the response on March 25th. I haven't heard anything about this either since.

Well MASH I just don't how it could get any worse. So sorry for the news you received at the doctors today. Obviously follow their medical advice for now. Surely they were only saying that it was unlikely to go full term for now not fir the future too.

On top of that the added pressure of home life. Talk it through with your spouse and see what he says. It might just need him sitting down with his mum to explain things and reduce the stress levels in the house.

At some point you would want your own place anyway it just might be sooner!

You thought about expediting your EAP, You can prove financial loss quite easily and the urgency for the need to work although I'm sure that's not at the forefront of your mind right now.

If you have any job offer they would look at it favourably I would hope.

Stay positive, these bumps in the road are here to test us so have a mindset to overcome it all. You will both be stronger when you come out the other side

Thank you so much , I'll try to be even more positive today but cause what I have been hearing about my miscarriage an being used by his mother , my husband is defending me which I am happy but most of the time he says it's not that bad, reason why he says that cause he is at work for 12 hrs and doesn't see when his mother is being abusive to me by yelling at me to do the house chores while she is sitting down watching tv or going out till night so when he comes home he barely sees her, my husband does believe but since he is not seeing it in front of him he won't fully comprehend it and that I guess it's his mom so idk what to do

I am so sorry you have been such a strong person I look up to on this forum for sure! My heart is aching for you!! I'm sending positive thoughts and hoping you will get your EAD AP very quickly it's very hard living with families that aren't completely supportive!! I'm very lucky that my husbands parents are so supportive I couldn't imagine it being any other way! Just remember we are all here for you to talk to no judgement ever . I really hope you get news soon !!!
