There is no way to know when your expedite will be looked at by an officer.

You followed the procedure to expedite EAD? 

Ie. You called after you received your Noa1 receipt notice for I765 and they asked you to provide evidence of a job offer and you provided it?

Hi,

 

I asked for an expedite of the case. They gave me a case number, i was not asked to submit any proofs. This was 4 weeks ago. When called the cust care, i was told that the case has no processor or officer assigned. I am not sure as to what needs to be done next. Can someone please help me here. Is there a deadline for the expedite. It cannot be like we can have expedite open for 6 months and nobody looks at it and we are not submit another request.

I think you need to be a bit patient OP. What is the purpose of your expedite?

 

I am a mil spouse and went through the AOS process in the height of covid. They took almost two months to send my initial receipt after receiving my packet, and then I was called for biometrics for AP and EAD about 3 months later. You can check out my timeline.

 

you can try and request an expedited case but unless there’s a valid reason, it doesn’t seem likely. 
 

what is your local office? I was in a relatively small area so my case moved quickly and I also believe it is because our packet was meticulously put forget her and I’m from a low fraud country.

Purpose is first PCS to OCONUS. Wanted to get the green card before we travel.

 

Understood, but i am seeing civilians without expediting their case getting earlier. So wanted to see if atleast i can get a EAD before anything.

Mine is on the west coast. Understood, my fiance arrived here on K1 visa. So USCIS would have done their due diligence right.

Understood, thanks for clearing that up! Be sure that when you call them that you’re calling the Military line. 
 

you have a good case for expedition, just keep on them about it. I was in WA and got mine very quick. 
 

how long are you going to be OCONUS? It’s likely you’ll have the AP for your wife by then which will allow her to travel outside the US depending on when you guys leave. 
 

hopefully it all sorts itself out for you! Stay on top of them. If there’s a delay, you can reach out to your local congressman. A friend of mine had major issues with their visa (their own fault) but were supported by local congressmen and were able to get taken care of
