I received the  appointment letter for my wife's biometrics today in the mail. It is 2 weeks from today. I thought the appointment would be in San Francisco, 2 hours away. Fortunately, there is a local USCIS office in Santa Rosa, only 45 minutes away.:D Last weekend we lost the 3 letters that our applications were received. My wife's purse was stolen from the car and the purse contained the 3 letters. :angry:

The PO box is for regular and priority mail, the other address is for Express and Courier service. it varies based on your type of RFIE. for example ours said that exact PO Box, but the Chipman Rd address did not have a suite number, it just said "USCIS, Attention: Adjustment of Status" then the address. 

 

Make sure you choose an address from your specific letter :) 

Thank you :)

My biometrics appointment is this week about 20 mins away from my house conviniently located on my way to work ;)    Still don't have any updates on my request to expedite my EAD but since they need fingerprints for the card I'm assuming I'll hear something after my appointment. In the mean time my current EAD expires May 19.

On your way to work? How are you working if you don't have your EAD yet? Unless you mean that it is in your way to your future working place.

Has anyone got an EAD approval yet? looking on the section for average wait times looks to be about 30 days ish from biometrics appointment. (varies on if you filed via mail or efiled) 42 if you e-file or 29 if by mail. (weird I know you would think it would be the opposite!) Here is the link for those that are curious! http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/eadstats.php

 

On another note! I really wish they had something like we had with Igors List like we did with the K1s for theses AOS EAD AP would really be nice!! Does anyone know if there is? I seem to rememeber a place whecasre it populated a list according to your case number and it would populate a list of so many (that you specified) and you could see statuses of cases near yours.

Sorry if I have to ask the question again but which of the date is the one where I can estimate when I get my EAD?

 

I sent AOS,EAD and AP to USCIS on February 21st. They received it on February 24th. Got NOA1 in the mail on March 14th.

You're looking at the list wrong. The average time between biometrics and EAD approval is 57 days according to the stats. I don't even know how you'd e-file it. And that works out, because the average from the first NOA to biometrics is roughly 30 days and then another 60ish = 90 days. 

 

@Becci391

You go by the USCIS received date that you find online.
