We just called and spoke to a Tier 2.  She told me we have to wait 5 months for EAD.  Then she hung up

Yup.  Said our case hasn't even been assigned to an officer yet.  She talked in circles really... I think that they assume we are all idiots and don't understand the process because when you ask a question they change their answer and it conflicts with the info they gave previously.  I just emailed my Senator and have an infopass appointment later in the month.  It's complete BS.

We emailed the senator last week but have heard nothing since. I am thinking of contacting our congresswoman next week once we hit 90 days are if she can help

That was friggin rude of her to hang up on you. And wth 5 months?!

We called this week and they told us it would be 3 months no matter how the aos and the travel doc is delayed. Im sorry if you had to go through that #######. I undestand that it's frustrating not being able to work thoug  maybeyou could try doing freelance online?

Three months more or 3 months from applying? Funny how different each persons answers are. Why even bother taking calls if they just make up answers?!? Did they say the AP process is delayed?

Im in UT so not sure if it's the same as yours. For the aos, they're processing those from March 2017 same numbers last month when we called. It's like they arent processing at all. For the AP they're just on October 2017. Last month they're on Sept 2017. So 2 more months before I'd hear anything from the AP. Which by that point, I wont need anymore. Useless. 

To answer your question, 3 months from when they received it. I sent mine out on the 12/21 and they received it on the 27th. So 3 months from the 27th. Supposedly march 27th, though, tbh I really do t trust anything they say anymore.

half of them just have generic answers to stall on every thing. its all frustrating. at this rate if one doesn't expedite, it'll take some time.

I think assigning to an officer doesn't help much as well... My case is with an officer more than a month. As the last response of uscis to my congressman which is March 6th, it is still with the officer, and I must get a decision within 30 days. And today, I got an email from ombudsman saying that they did a follow-up inquiry to uscis since uscis didn't respond them as well. It is kinda joke or what?

It's all a racket.... misinformation everywhere. There is no reason they can't provide correct and accurate information

I am still waiting on my EAD (3 months in) 

 

A friend who lives in a different state than I going through this process got her EAD & Travel doc 2 months into the process. AND TODAY she got her approval for i-485. instant approval about 3 months after applying. Her case status tracker didnt even update. She didnt even have to have an interview! The letter told her she is approved and her permanent residence card (green card) will come in 3 weeks. 

WOW WOW WOW.  lucky girl.

yes i know! ugh i hate waiting.

 

I noticed you have an i485 interview date  already! thats awesome!

Did your case tracker update?

I am curious if you were in the "interview ready to schedule" at all or did it just go straight to interview scheduled.  I still havnt received an interview date and my case tracker updated to interview ready to schedule in january.
