My appointment was scheduled for 2pm. I arrived early at 1:30, the lady officer at the door said it was pretty empty and I could go in - I was out of the door in less than 10 minutes. 

They couldn't fix the typo on my last name but she made a note about it. Overall really good and trying to calm down people, nothing like some bad reviews I read. I checked my account outside, and it had changed to "actively being processed"

 

I received the "classic" 3 texts and emails today at about 3:30am Pacific, probably an automated system - just the same status change of when I left the building "case is actively being processed" for AOS and EAD, AP still only shows case received. 

 

Not sure what happens next since it seems to be a mix of people just waiting, others that received EAD approval a few days after bios and others right away. Most cases here are AOS post K1, so I'm reluctant to make any assumption based on that. I don't know, just wait and see, I guess! 

Good luck to us all! 

Sounds exactly like how mine went! I was in and out in 15 minutes, my cases also got updated to actively being reviewed immediately after.

 

I know what you mean, I was on edge right after thinking I’d get the EAD the same day but I guess not 😅 good luck to us all for real!

Hubby had biometrics today in Milwaukee.  Took a few minutes.  No one said anything to him other than biometrics.  By the time we got home status was changed to 'actively being reviewed'.    Now we wait.  Like everyone else!  But it's all good :)

Hi all, 

 

Just coming to you with an update. On 9/15 I requested an expedite through Emma. They told me I’d hear back in 7 days. 
 

On 9/24 I got an email saying they are reviewing my expedite request. Today 9/26 MY EAD GOT APPROVED!!! They did not ask for evidence. 
 

Obviously super stoked and I can’t believe it, I was desperate and needed to try. Happy to answer any questions!

Financial loss to a company. They were my previous employers and wanted me back ASAP.

Financial loss to a company. They wanted me to come back ASAP as I had worked for them before.

Welcome! 
 

I am in GA but my field office (where I had my biometrics) is in Jacksonville, FL.

 

The service center that processed my EAD is National Benefits Center (NBC).

A little update on my side, my EAD ONLY got approved (status: Card being produced). AP, no update since received documents 😞 

 

More waiting then!

 

august 18th filer here on the 16th of September we received the EAD but no status change for AP. Only 485 showing active review after biometrics. Can someone tell me if they received a letter for interview appointment please?!

Hey guys, how do you actually go about expediting your EAD? You speak to Emma and say what exactly? 'I'd like to expedite my EAD and the reason being 'financial loss to a company'

 

And that's it or do you have to explain further? 

 

Thank you :)

Well yeah, that’s one of the criteria to expedite. But you need to be a bit more specific when you’re talking to an agent on phone or through Emma.

 

In my experience what you say right then is the most important, and determines whether your expedite gets approved or not. 
 

Make sure you have some kind of proof, just in case they ask. Good luck!
