Seattle is one of those field offices that’s really backed up, so I’m afraid you’re right according to processing times though it could be a few months earlier than that. As for your EAD expect between 4 to 6 months. Used to be under 3 months but nationwide backlogs have pushed it further as well.

My AOS case is at the Seattle WA office too, and my EAD is at the NBC. Just curious, where were you seeing the 900 days figure? On http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/aosstats.php it says Seattle WA takes an average of 344 days to interview (307 days between biometrics and interview) based on 19 records for that office. The USCIS egov website says 11.5-17.5 months on average, with family based applications taking 10.5 Months to 23.5 Months and work based  applications taking 10 Months to 14.5 Months. As for EAD, 4-6 months seems to be a good estimate right now. My receipt date is February 26, and most of the other people who filed around my time are now receiving EAD's. I have not, most likely due to my case being on hold from March 26 - April 24 due to an RFE (probably added a month). But if you haven't had an RFE then you can probably count 6 months as being the longest it could take.

I think the OP limited the search to only the past 90 days (http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/aosstats.php?history=90). This only has 1 record, which is well outside the norm.

Gotcha! Looks like that's it, thank you! 😃 Yeah I agree. It's important to look at the overall picture. One record is more likely to be a complicated case/outlier than a reflection of the average case processing time.
