My wife got the NOA that her EAD and AP was approved on 11/2. It's now 11/17 and we still don't have the card in the mail. Any idea how long it typically takes once you get that approval NOA? I'm getting concerned because she has a trip she needs to make back to Mexico in the first part of December and every day that it doesn't come in the mail has been concerning to me.

Thanks,

Brian

They'll update the case status when the card ships. My cases were approved on 11/4, and they shipped yesterday (8 business days later). Approximately two weeks from approval to delivery seems common.

If it isn't difficult, it isn't worth it.

It depends. You may or may not get a case status update when it ships (we did not). Typically once it is shipped, you get it within two to three days.

Ours took about 15 days to get once it had been approved on Oct 28th, but USCIS technically has 30 days to send it to you before they can inquire about it.
