That's great, congrats! You must be really relieved to finally see some movement on your case.

I don't know how it will work with biometrics. My guess will be that they will just prepare it and send it as is as your appointment isn't for a while yet, but that's just a guess.

Thank you!

I actually have not expected any movement or update until i got my biometrics done. And it was the first time i ever received a text update from USCIS. Haha.

At 1:51am today, i received a text notification that my case number for EAD (I-765) has been updated. When i logged in online to check, it says that my case was approved on October 31. Then on the case history, it says

08/09/2016

We received your Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization.

So will thay mean i will probably get my EAD withoutmy fingerprint or they will still wait for ky biometrics before the next update like card being produce or card mailed to me? I haven't done my biometrics yet. But I'm glad EAD was approved. ?

Congrats!

thank you! I was reading some posts and experiences that they actually received their EAD card without doing the biometrics. the card just says "fingerprint unavailable". Although, they said its rare, i still hope same goes to me!

You can receive EAD without fingerprint. For AOS -i485, you have to do fingerprint though.

Something weird just happened: I went to upload my cases in the app and all the cases are there but the I-485 disappeared! I checked their website and it's still there but that scared me... The other cases are still "fee was received"...
