Hi Everyone, 

 

I just checked the processing times on the USCIS website for Employment Authorisation and it says it's taking 28.5 - 37 months at the NBC - does anyone know why this is? Until recently, processing times have only been 4 - 7 months 🙄

 

Thanks!

I've seen rumors (no confirmed sources) that they shifted priorities from processing these to processing adjustment of status applications because of the pending furlough (which now has been put on hold).  If that is true, then there would be no need for the employment authorization if the GC is approved - It would be wonderful if that is the case, but honestly who knows!  It could be a glitch, it could be anything.  If I have learned nothing by now, there is no rhyme or reason behind how the USCIS works.

Hey guys so I just called uscis and they told me I should expect my EAD approval in about 28 to 31 month!!! 

What is that?!

 

It was like 5 to 7 months a few weeks ago. 

 

This guy was pointless just reading a script I heard many times! I'm tired of it it's been 4 months and this fools keep telling me to check the myUSCIS account like it helps!

Hey everyone - just a heads up, I checked the USCIS website again and it looks like processing times are back to normal - 5 - 7.5 months at NBC 🤩
