My i130 was approved. My 601a was approved. I sent in my d260 application and all documents to NVC. I am waiting on my appointment in Mexico. Its been almost 10 weeks and NVC still has not sent my file to the embassy.

I have a job offer that is currently undergoing background checks and when they are complete and see that I'm not on e verify then what? The job is what I want, it's way above minimum wage and I'll be making way more than my husband. This EAD thing is holding me back. I've seen people not expedite and get approved in 50 something days. What was so wrong with october filers? I did not anticipate waiting more than 90 days to have it in hand.. I should have had it in hand already. Because then I have to go get a social security card and driver's license which is going to take time again to come in the mail. 

Hi EmpressBab, my husband came here on the K1 Fiance visa and after we got married we went to get his Social Security Card and Drivers License soon after. We are also still waiting to hear back for his i-765, i-131,and i-485. They needed his I-9 arrival card (which we obtained a new copy online) and our marriage certificate. And a few other documents we needed to provide that we looked up online. 

 

We live in the state of South Carolina (not sure if it is different in other states) ....but I would try to get your SSN/Drivers license while you wait for your work authorization!

 

I agree, this wait is driving me crazy too.... I am definitely not a patient person lol

I didn't come on a K1 visa so that doesn't apply to me.. I have a SSN already because I've came on many work programs.. I changed my last name to my husband's so waiting on the EAD to go get my new card..

Thank you! Hang in there, your approval is coming soon. Especially being so close to the 90 day mark.

Congrats for those who got updates! 

Checked mine this morning and AP status says, "New Card is being produced"

This is after 88 days our case was received.

Update about my service request (day 86 since filing AOS/EAD), I finally got a response today through e-mail. It looks very much like a standard e-mail;

The status of this service request is:

Recently, you contacted us regarding your Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization.  Your case is within our current processing time.  Our systems show that we received your response to our Request For Evidence (RFE) on your Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, on 12/19/2016.  Your Form I-765 will be processed within 90 days of the receipt of the requested evidence.

Seems like they still reset.

You and I have about the same timeline, I also got an RFE and nothing has moved since they received it over a month a go.

I have not done any service request though. It has been 84 days.

We are about a month behind you..  I'm just lurking and watching.

I got my congressman involved today. I'm okay with one time waiting approx 90 days or less or a little over but not two times. My husband makes enough to provide for both of us but after working for 9 years straight, never been laid off - nothing, I can't stay at home all day for another 90 days. I did contact the DMV also and she said there is a possibility for me to obtain a drivers license without my EAD so fingers crossed for both.

i know what you mean i have always been in school or working. This has been a really hard 87 days for me. I called my congressman about an hour ago and they told me to fax my job offer and the privacy release form they sent me. So I'll see how that goes.
