Cincinnati Filer:

Application sent: 11/01/2017
Application Received: 11/03/2017
Notification of Acceptance via email: 11/14/2017
Four letters of the receipt in mail: 11/18/2017
Letter for Biometric Appointment in mail: 11/26/2017. (I believed it came earlier because I was out of town).
Biometric Appointment: 12/7/2017 walk in completed!
Waiting: Begins

Please any idea of how long I have to wait to know if I have been approved for the EAD and AP?

It takes 60-90 days for the EAD/AP. I don't mean to burst your bubble early this stage, but there are some people who are sitting on 120+ and still waiting for their EAD/AP. And then again there are September 2017 filers who are starting to get their combo cards now. So, it's kind of hard to predict a timeline. All we can do is wait and hope that every thing will go smoothly. :)  Good luck!

I thought Cincinnati field office is a little fast compared to some field offices I have read about.

If that is the case, that's awesome. Mine was routed to Missouri. So, I don't know how fast or slow they are over there. Haha!

Mine was routed to Missouri as well. But I read/heard that Missouri is just responsible for the EAD/AP and the i-485 depends on your field office. I believe it will be fast because technically it seems there are not a lot of people filing from Cincinnati as compared to Dallas, New York

Oh I'm keeping tabs alright! Haha! There's an app you can download and upload your receipt # or you can also create a log in at USCIS webiste https://egov.uscis.gov so you can  keep track of your case. Or if you included Form G-1145 for e-notifications (text & email). Yes, they will send you a notice if your EAD/AP were approved.

Yes that's true. I have no idea where my I-485 is at right now, it will most likely end up in my local field office. I just hope my combo cards will get here soon.

No lawyer. My husband & I did every thing ourselves and it was very taxing filing up all the forms. Did you have any help from a lawyer?
