Hi guys,

 

Is anybody in this forum adjusting status from an active H1B ? I wonder if they take more time to issue an EAD for someone who is on a valid  H1B visa already ???  

I'm H2B I honestly don't have a clue if it makes any difference but from what I've noticed non k-1 holders seen to have a longer wait time to me!

I had that thought for the past few months until the email this morning Think yours should be any days now, the timeline in VJ is normally within 150 days when I checked the recent two months. Hang on and it will come!

Yep. Application to GC in 4.5 months. I never got my EAD/AP Combo card as a half way step which sucked but no regrets now. My lawyer said that if you have an H-1B for some time, especially if you have done renewals, it's likely the background check is done, so the process is quicker. I got my GC two days before my I-94 expired (I had lost my H-1B job earlier that year). I've said this before in this forum - lots of people report that their EADs/interviews and stuff tends to adjudicated right before your prior legal status expires.

So an update for you all.

We moved to Seattle, so we were scheduled to have two interviews (one cancelled and the other had to be cancelled too - since we left NC).

Now I have been in Limbo.

does anyone know if we go "to the back of the line" of sorts, when we transfer applications?

Unfortunately very likely you will, you moved from a faster area to a much more slower/populated area. Average math is NC office is 6-9 months, while Seattle is more like 15 months.

Yep.

Still waiting, I assume everyone else has had their interview?

When did USCIS receive your RFIE response? May 2018? USCIS won't accept a case inquiry from you until about 23 months from that date: https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ In the meantime, have you submitted your EAD and AP renewal yet?
