Virginia DMV office.😅  

I'm transferring my Japanese license to here so I knew it'll take some time (they said about 1 month), and shortly after the office closed so I am still waiting.. 

I should contact their customer service!

 

Wow that's crazy. You could have gotten 5 new ones in between 😉

Hey all, 

happy to see all the cases that have made some progress in the past weeks!

 

@Nostalgia @Meg101 @yoda one for me

I started to freelance this week  I have been on the job market for 3 months and didn't reach the final goal yet. I have been very picky though and applied for about 90 jobs "only". My husband works for a small startup that has been growing fast since the Covid outbreak. They increased their workforce from 35 to 50 people in the last 4 months and 80% of them report to him. They needed a project manager for the next 4-6 weeks and asked if I was interested. Because I was so tired of the job search, Corona, and the political situation I accepted. It is weird to work with your spouse but this week it worked really well. On day 2 they asked if I wanted to work there permanently and what my salary reqs were  I want to push this conversation into the future because I make way more money as a freelancer lol. And I also want to see how the new dynamics in our marriage go. Paperwork-wise: I track my hours and send them an invoice once a month to bill for my services. As far as I have researched I need to report my income to IRS once a quarter and pay 15.3% taxes after expenses.

Received my children’s SSN cards in the mail today. Not mine. And I so desperately need mine. 
 

their I-765 cases went straight to ‘case received’ to ‘card being produced’. Mine went from ‘case received’ to ‘card requested’ to ‘approved’. 
 

Has anyone received their card without notification that it was shipped?

It takes 3 weeks to have your card mailed out.

Ok thanks. My kids’ were approved last week - went straight to approved and received card this week. So weird. 

[Zsazsa 249]

I’m amazed at how long it takes for the EAD/AP cards to get produced/mailed. My children had their cases approved and cards received within a week. Funny because neither of them are even old enough to work. 🙄

Just received notification that my EAS card was mailed. No tracking number though. Hmmmmm? Did everyone else get a tracking number? Also, will my SSN be attached?

It always comes separately since SSA is the one that issues and sends SS cards.

You'll get another update when USPS has picked it up. That will include the tracking number

I don't recall anybody in the January group without biometrics

Anyone else have this twist to the wait for interview.   Back in May we achieved the status of "ready to be scheduled....for an interview".   Then we just had the status update that as of this date in July the status is "ready to be scheduled....for an interview".    So the only change I can see is they reset the date to end of July on the notification.   Still says they will schedule the interview and send a notice.     Anyone know what's up?    I am hoping it means they are actually scheduling interviews but I'm not sure why the updated the date in the Case Status to July?   Any clues as to what this implies as far as an interview date?

I think it was 6-7 weeks for me! 

Question, was that 6-7 weeks from when your EAD was approved or from when you received your EAD in the mail?
