AP/EAD Frustrating

[meandterry 3]

Its been 66 days of waiting but nothing change for our application...Still INITIAL REVIEW.

Really don't know they don't have exact time line, others got it fast.

You are still within normal processing times, mine took 63 days to go from Initial Review to Card Production Ordered and I'm currently waiting for the card itself. Have you had any RFEs? If so then those slow the process down.

Hi Jason,

We don't receive any RFE, Yes I saw your timeline seems so fast.

I am just really worried since my father got stroke from Philippines and I want to see him while he's still can recognize me. I did not try to expedite worrying that it can cause delay so I decided to wait my luck.

I Knew it takes 70 to 90 days time line but as I read anybody's experience them takes less than 70 days mostly. So the best I can do is wait and wait.

Thanks.

You can try asking for an expedite with the reason - "Extreme emergent situation" on the basis of a family medical emergency but make sure you have a letter from your father's doctor or a medical report explaining the situation and if it isn't in English then get it translated by an official translator, if there aren't any other issues with your application they should then they should process it quickly.
