I see. They sure take their sweet time. I already did the Biometrics in February. Ill keep everyone posted. 

 

Congrats on your approval again. 

 

 

We also got my wife's Biometrics done in February, but have yet to see any updates or confirmation that they received them... Did you get any updates with yours?  So far the last update we got was the piece of mail that told us her scheduled biometrics time and location.  Her i131 and i765 are still listed as received as well.

Hi, 

 

I did not get a notification or letter after doing the biometrics. Got nothing. However, I did call the USCIS yesterday and asked them if they could see my case status and they said yes. They told me they saw that I did the biometrics. Besides that Im just waiting, hoping to get it soon. Ill let you know.

No good news bruh. No EAD yet and my I-485 case still in the user-defined error(s). It hasn’t been easy for me for the last six month since I moved here. I sometimes imagine what’s going on here. We were thoroughly investigated, saw that we had a bonafide relationship before being awarded the K1 Visa with the option to get married within 90 days to be eligible for permanent residency which we did. Yet nothing as of now. I mean absolutely nothing. Sad!

Same on my side.  EAD and i485 were sent end of January and were all received early February.  Had biometrics done, but no notification or update with that since.  No updates or notifications on EAD or i485 either.  Just the "We received your..." messages...

Nothing since the interview on the 14th.  No updates on the case trackers, nothing in the mail, just waiting.  Our case tracker still says "We received your case", we never even got an update about the interview being scheduled through that, it just showed up in the mail.  Hopefully we will, and everyone else will, get some good news soon!

Same for us. just hang in there guys! For sure our time will come.

Anyway, if you’re feeling bored you might want to try some online courses and do some volunteering.

I did some online courses on Udemy and also some volunteering in a public library near our place.

I raised a service request for expedite on my EAD.i Submitted in Jan but my PD is Feb 5 since then all i see is we received your mail.

I told them i needed to work badly they replied by telling me to Fax evidences.. i sent my children hospital bills and the report of one of them having chronic ear infections and the report from his school that he needed urgent medical attention.. All ENT clinics around here if you don't have insurance you will pay minimum of $ 400 deposit..i sent them the Doctor's report and referral..my spouse income is quite small and we have 3 children. i have to work

They replied by saying

I did the same thing regarding my AP.. I NEED to fly back to the U.K. end of August to bring my son back there and I need to book tickets this week. Requested expedite and got the EXACT same reply within less than 24 hrs.. I mean they didn’t even look at the case properly..I’m getting extremely frustrated, I also got $2500 in medical bills already cos I had a miscarriage in February and needed to got to ER and we’ve not reached deductables yet. So extremely fed up with this process....

I will call it frustration

That would very likely be the reason. Need to remember they are expediting people’s cases due to the company needing them. In reality employment visas take precedence for same reason. They dont want low paying jobs just filled. Instead showing both some loss to immigrat and employer.

I included the job offer, but rejected with the same exact response.
