Hey all, this may be a dumb question...but who does the EAD / AP cards?  Is it your local office or are they all handled by the National Service Center or something?  I'm just curious if your location has any impact on how fast you get the EAD/AP card...

National Service Center handles all EAD and AP Cards.....in yur NOAs you will hand the address where it came from.

Hi guys, I just want to update. I have got my EAD and I have applied for SSN. They said it will arrive within 2 weeks. All I do is fill up the form online, print it, bring it to SSA with passport and EAD. 

 

Congrats for everybody who have got their EAD, hope we will get the interview schedule soon!

 

Keep fighting guys if you haven't got your EAD

 

my timeline

8/23 PD

12/5 EAD/AP Approval

12/10 receiving EAD combo card

12/12 applying for SSN

Letter was not delivered? I would try calling USCIS and talk to Officer, ask him about your status and he will provide the latest information to you. This letter could be an RFE, your approval or who knows.....

 

There are lots of August Filers still yet to receive EAD.

I called yesterday and she said that my case has no records of anything being sent. Today I checked USCIS under my account and the following is showing:

 

As of December 13, 2017, your request to have your Employment Authorization Document resent to you, referral number T1D34xxxxxxx9MSC, is currently not assigned for processing.

 

I never mentioned it was the employment authorization. I said that a package was sent and she reinforced that nothing was showing under my receipt numbers.

Did you check with the Post Office afterwards? Sometimes they don't deliver a mail, judging by someone not being at the house or whatnot and the mail is at the post officer for a while before it's returned to the sender. Try look into that, maybe it's there

Called USPS again and after investigating what happened they informed that USCIS sent two pieces of mail or package under the same tracking number. Since they did not know which one they paid for for, it was sent back to the sender. 2 Priority mail/package with $100 dollars insurance coming from USCIS Lees Summit Production Facility.

 

Called USCIS again, explained the case and a Tier 2 will contact me. Will update here after receiving the call. Thank you for you reply.

Lees Summit is normally the production facility. People who had such mail received their EAD\AP.

Officer (level 2) should be able to provide your more info.....first level support, doesnt have much more than what you see on the USCIS Case Status.

They just got back to me and said that one letter was my card and the other one was the receipt notice about it. I explained what USPS people told me and she was surprised that happened. Moving forward, she asked for my email address and by Dec. 28 I will receive an email which will clarify next steps as well as new tracking number.

Since it was priority mail it left the same day and today arrived at the USCIS facility already. Tier two called me back and asked for my email address, by Dec. 28th I will receive an email clarifying the case. Case still under Status : CASE RECEIVED AUGUST 28th

So today I got an email saying that based on my service request, my EAD case is under review, and to expect a response within SIXTY DAYS. So not sure if things are moving along or not? Did others get this email for their SRs? Ugh!

 

When I logged back into myUSCIS, it now says my SR for the EAD has been completed. What does this mean??

 

@Aviinashh any progress? Who else is still waiting for their EAD/AP to be approved?

At least you got a timeframe. And it is progress, someone is making clicks. 

 

The email I received said this "The status of this service request is: Your case is currently under review. You should receive a decision or notice of other action shortly."

 

"shortly" and no news until now 

[Denglish 58]

Not sure what to make of our latest case updates:

 

- 11/30 expedite request was completed

- 12/14 service request and general inquiry were both assigned to an officer (these were broken up on separate entries online)

- 12/14 response to service request and general inquiry were both sent (these were broken up on separate entries online)

- 12/14 service request and general inquiry were both completed (these were broken up on separate entries online)

 

I didn't even notice that the expedite was completed on 11/30 but I haven't heard any news either way.  Curious as to what these responses to my service request and general inquiry are (i only filed an SR, not sure what general inquiry is, maybe from the congressman?).  I wish the responses would just show on the online system.

 

Has anyone had this happen?  Did good news follow?

Oh that's bizarre. I would've thought that email is just a stock response and everyone gets the same wording. 

 

I'd also say "shortly" is less than 60 days. haha. Well, good to know service requests are likely meaningless..
