RFE was for i485 not EAD or AP. So it doesn't affect the EAD/AP Approval. 71 Days approval is lucky.

No that is what a normal RFE would do. Pause the time and then keep on processing from the day you submit the requested documents. However a RFIE (Initial evidence) reverses the entire time back to 0 from the day the requested documents are submitted. That's also what USCIS describes in the quote. 

The USCIS lady told me the exact same thing even though I told her that technically if the RFIE is done before the biometrics it shouldn't affect the application since USCIS doesn't start processing until they have the biometrics anyways. She obviously didn't agree with it and said that I need to take the day the status changes to documents received as my new day number one and then start counting. You can find lots of threads about this topic. 

 

I-765 is filed concurrently with I-485 and vice versa 

Ok fair enough. yeah i know their are lots of threads and I'm aware I can go and search through VJ, but I like to stick to this thread specifically for the positivity and support.

Mini update after another phone call to USCIS this morning, my RFIE isn't sending my EAD back to 0, the woman told me it just just puts my i485 (the form that for the RFIE) and all forms filed concurrently on pause, adds an extra 60 days of processing time on to the i485 but my EAD and AP are just put on pause, and as soon a second my RFIE is received will start back from where it left off :) so thankful for the support from this group! sending my positive vibes to anyone who needs it today :)

Thank you for this information! I'm really hoping that the EAD processing number of days will not go back to zero.
I can wait for the interview a little longer than expected but I need my work authorization soon.

Yeah I understand how you feel, we all do! Everyone wants to be able to work asap, I've used up so much of my savings, and movingly into a new apartment in July. It sucks that you aren't able to get your driving license without EAD. 

Also, if you are really concerned about your RFIE/RFE affecting your EAD give USCIS a call, the woman I spoke to was lovely, pulled up the info on my RFIE, asked for my receipt number for my EAD looked at my case and told me it wasn't affected that badly :) only affected by the number of days it takes me to get the RFIE sent back in :)
