Did anyone that filed after June get EAD/AP yet, or are approvals stalled?

Up until recently, the dates at https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/ for the latest approved EAD and AP were moving very quickly. Since about a month ago, those dates are still exactly the same (June 7 and June 11, respectively). Consequently, my own EAD/AP expected approval date keeps moving back -- it was February, and now it's back to June.

 

What's going on here? Did USCIS stop processing newer EAD/AP requests? Or is this just a problem with how the site is reporting or calculating the most recent dates?

I’m asking myself the same question. We filed end of June, PD 06/30/2020, biometrics 12/11/2020 and I’m still waiting. I’ve also noticed how this website keep pushing the date. It has been a long wait and it’s been extremely frustrating.

I found this data useful, the timelines of people that have recently reported their EAD as approved: https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/eadlist.php?cfl=&op5=4,7,11,12

 

Looking for patterns in recent approvals, you can see that the approval date seems to almost always be within 1-2 months of the biometrics date. Some take a little longer but that seems to be the general pattern.

 

So the premise of my question is a bit wrong -- it doesn't seem to be based on your NOA date, it seems to be based on your biometrics date. I've also heard that all outstanding RFE/RFIE need to be resolved as well (e.g. for I-944 that lots of us just got) before the card is approved. So once your case is marked as "ready for interview", it seems like you should expect the card within 1-2 months.
