When did you get your EAD?and when you applied for AOS

I applied for my AOS on June 23 2017. Received my EAD/AP June 7, 2018. Greencard is now coming sometime Sept 2018.

I have seen some many March filers got your EAD or GC, congratulations!

 

I really want to know how is your job hunting? Is it easy to get jobs with your EAD? What kinds of job? If you don’t mind, please share how you get the job. 

 

I just graduated last year, I don’t really have a skill. I am worried that it might be hard to get jobs, my first language is not English. I can speak English fluently but still not as good as native.

When is your 485 interview?

 

we have to wait for that now because we messed up on the 756.

 

Im not even sure how to understand processing times because the 485 gets mailed to Chicago Illinois but the USCIS site asks for a processing center and there are a ton of them.

i havent been scheduled yet. i dont understand it either but i know it gets sent to the city's field office where u reside and where u ll have ur interview. i think it would have been better to apply for EAD because it could take months to get an interview and your life wont have to be paused till u get your GC.

My husband was a 3/19 filer and just got his EAD approved last week - so, 164 days.  I would bet yours will be coming soon, but it has taken some more than 180 days.

Hey guys,

I just had my interview today, everything went well and the lady said that "she would approve that whenever she had a break" (the place was packed)..

My question is how long does it take to get an approval after the interview?

 

Hey!

 

Congratulations, how exciting!

 

I was wondering if you could give us any tips for the interview and what paperwork you needed to provide. Any help would be greatly apprecaited.

 

Thank you in advance

Thanks 😀

My interview was very fast and simple. The officer didn't ask for half of the documents that I took, not even the pictures. 

I would take all that it is mentioned in the interview letter and one thing that I had but I didn't know that they needed is proof of physical address, I had a letter from the doctor with my physical address and my husband just used his drivers license.

I think the amount of documents depends on the officer you get. Some officer that I saw there seemed to be in a terrible mod and were very rude.

I was very nervous but the officer was trying to lighting up the mod. 

One thing that the officer told me was that many people fail on getting the "dates right". She said that "our dates match". 

My main advice would be to be prepared and have all your documents (originals and copies). And don't start a conversation just answer what you are asked. 

Good luck for all of you guys.

Just be confident, there's nothing to fear.

EAD came July 7 2018 and and I applied for AOS June 23 2017. Sorry I thought I already replied to this.

I just checked USPS informed delivery and my EAD/AP combo card is due to arrive on Thursday! Overall it will take about 2 weeks from the approval date to receive the physical card, in my experience.

I filled March 19 and today I got an email saying that my EAD is being produced, finally!! And on USCIS processing time, shows that they are working on March already  so everyone should get their EAD in September! Yayyyy!
