Waiting for work permit

[eminemd12 2]

Hi guys,

I provided my fingerprints by November 18th, But I did not receive my work permit yet, and whenever I check my status, I find the following:

On October 7, 2016, we received your Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization , Receipt Number MSC**********, and sent you the receipt notice that describes how we will process your case. Please follow the instructions in the notice. If you do not receive your receipt notice by November 6, 2016, please call Customer Service at 1-800-375-5283. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

Is it ok to wait that long. it is almost 75 days to be a week? Also it does not say in the previous statement about receiving my other documents. Is all this normal? Any recommendation?

Thank you

Yeah it's fine. When you reach the 75 days you can submit a service request.

What are those dates for?

Don't understand what you mean?

You have to sign us on USCIS website for each receipt you received from them for the petitions you filed.

You have the I-765 but sign up for a on line account for your I-485 and whatever else you sent in

I have pretty much the same dates as you and haven't heard anything about my EAD either. They received my documents October 7th and I did fingerprints November 16th

Perfectly normal waiting time. My husband had biometrics on November 25 and we aren't expecting EAD/AP until January if everything goes as planned. Hang in there, you will get yours soon.

Work permit takes two to three months after biometrics.

Fingerprints have no correlation with your EAD.

EAD is processed in 90 days. If it has been 75 days since the "received" date on your NOA, you can call USCIS and put in an expedite request. Also rember for USCIS to expedite you should have a valid reason like job loss, etc

You just did your fingerprints on November 18 expect to wait 3 months from them especially with many holidays this time . We filed April fingerprints end of April and work permit first week of July
