""To address the increased processing times, USCIS is allocating additional employee overtime and recruiting to fill vacancies across the country," a statement from the agency read."

 

hmmm....well...I still haven't received any news about my EAD

I am surprised that you haven't heard anything yet. Processing times sure have changed a lot since last year.

My husband recieved his EAD in the mail yesterday! YAY! The status online never changed from "case is approved." Going to SSN office tomorrow to apply for his SSN.  Good luck to everyone still waiting!

Hey Aviinashh, I am doing ok? I called USCIS this morning and was told case was assigned to an officer, just waiting an approval. I asked about I-485 updates , learnt that they have requested interview from Sept 27th. So even though we might not get the updates on their site, I believe that they working on our case....but maybe our files are not at the top of the pile that is assigned to the officer, let's hope that they get to our filed soon.  Another thing I am tired of hearing they say "you will hear from us shortly"   curious what does USCIS shortly means???

@Texasfiler, this is a good development. Hopefully, very very soon. I wont be surprised if your interview comes before the EAD.

You can start dancing in advance.

My husband kept telling me not to stress about it, whenever EAD comes it comes - but I need my SSN in order to get my DL - I cant stand not being able to drive my own vehicle.
