EAD Update but no Travel Parole Update

[Ashley903 7]

Hi guys,

Just curious

I requested an expedite for my husbands EAD Card on 6-9-14 because it had been over 75 days since our receipt date (Mar 25) and yesterday the website updated showing the card to be sent and also provided a tracking number.

This is wonderful news for us--but I am wondering if this will be the combo card? I did also request the Travel Parole (I-131) but that case number is still showing "initial review"

Will this be seperate?

Thanks in advance!

The scenario you describe seems to be happening frequently these days. The on-line notification system is not system is not often updated. A review of recent timelines and forum threads would reveal that EAD/AP combo card processing is taking from 60-90 days. My bet is on that when you receive your EAD card it will also have printed along the lower border of the the card "Serves as I-512 Advance Parole, making it your EAD/AP combo card.

Good luck!

Yes I have noticed that as well by reading other posts but definitely wanted to be sure

Thanks so much!

My AP's status is still at Initial Review but I already received my combo card for EAD/AP about 2 weeks.

Mine did the same,combo card issued but AP still said initial review. It'll be fine.

Out of interest I looked up my status on USCIS regarding my AP and it still says "post decision activity" even though I received combo card in January.
