[Mr and Mrs Bird 0]

I filed my EAD seperatly to Laguna Niguel California July 24 2007.

I haven't heard a word yet since they recieved my case which was August 9

Has anyone any experience to file to this office?

So you haven't heard anything in 14 days? EADs take around 90 days. What are you expecting to happen so fast?

Also I want to hear if somebody knows about filing to especially this local office

i also sent in an EAD but on 27 July (to beat fee increase) nothing yet. My check hasn't been cashed either. I am going cancel mine since it's a fairly moot pont now though.

Ok thank you.

Now I can at least look at your timeline and see what happens.

We almost filed the same time

Your profile shows K-1, did you file for EAD with or after filing AOS? K-1 filing for EAD at the service center with jurisdiction over your area using code (a )(6 ) only results in an EAD card that expires the same time as the I-94 card in passport (90 days from entry) since EAD can take up to 90 days to get, all the K-1 ends up with is a useless card, or even an invalid card, as what happened to the OP.

Also this is explained in the guides:

Immediately, before filing for AOS. As a K-1 visa holder you are technically eligible to file for an EAD immediately when you arrive. However, this EAD will expire when you K-1 expires (90 days) and because of this and the wait time (>90 days) it is a waist of both time and money to bother applying.

Your EAD should have been filed to Chicago Lockbox as it is based on catagory c9 AOS applicant... so not sure why you filed it to Laguna Niguel California....

K-1 and K-3 can file at CSC if filing for EAD BEFORE filing AOS. K-3 (a )(9 ) and K-1 (a )(6 ) the K-3 can benefit from this but the K-1 wont benefit due to the expire set to the I-94 expire. K-3 can get EAD valid up to 2 years, This was designed originally si that the K-3 could work while waiting for the CR-1 process to complete with NVC and Consulate so the the K-3 could then return to the consulate to interview for the CR-1, also the K-3 could put off filing for AOS until just before 2nd wedding anniversary avoiding conditions being placed on the green card.

In any case the K-1 should file for EAD through the Chicago address with AOS or after filing for AOS.

When will they inform us if it is the wrong place?

At the time we did Claudeth's AOS/EAD everything went to Chicago. The AOS was eventually transferred to CSC and they issued her green card but the EAD was out of MSC. Has anything changed?

[JessiPooh 0]

I filed my EAD pre-AOS to Chicago. They then transfered it to CSC where it is sitting there pending...
