How long for standalone AP document to be produced?

[joe.b 33]

My husband's expedite request for his AP was approved yesterday (hooray!). For reference, his EAD was approved about 3 months ago, but there had been no movement on the AP until we submitted an expedite request at the beginning of July. I'm wondering if anyone has experienced receiving a standalone AP document (that is, receiving the physical document itself, not just getting approved), and how long after approval that it took USCIS to send it.

 

I ask because I've read some individuals' reports on a different website of waiting a month or more after approval of a standalone AP for the document to actually be produced. These reports are from this year, but I'm not sure if they're outliers.

 

Of course, I'm being impatient, since it's only been a day since my husband's AP was approved, and hopefully USCIS will send the document quickly. But I just wanted to check if it might be more typical to expect a long wait.

 

Thanks!

Hi there - If you're open to sharing, can you tell me what reason you used for the expedite? My husband's mom is unwell and he would like to get back home to visit her. We applied Jan 19th and got our EAD, but still waiting on AP.
