I honestly think that those update are just a bunch of BS. I have seen people get approved in 1 month and some in 1 year. It seems to be a hit or miss. 

 

I am just wondering if I should apply for I-131 or not. I should have done it with EAD. I want to travel in October and looking at current processing times reported by VJ users I think it is unlikely that I will have my GC by then...

If I were you I'd apply for AP ASAP, its free and can't hurt to have it. You never know when you may need it.

Well figured I would pop in here and say hello. We were a part of the April K1 group.

 

We got the NOA1 for everything on the 25th of January, did our Biometrics on the 23rd of February. Tracker has never updated and just sitting in the dark. Would love to see the EAD & AP soon so she can get her drivers license back. Being the only one working or driving gets a bit old.

We have almost the same timelines for the AOS process and I haven't gotten an update yet on any of the processes.

Yeah, I hear you. I haven't gotten my driver license yet. Just waiting for the EAD card so I can apply for it and stop walking around with my passport.

Still nobody with an interview from January?

My interview in on April 3. I believe I am the second one from January filers. @Kaitmarie has hers this week.

Awesome! That is probably your interview schedule! :)

I agree, everytime i see someone post some good news I get my hopes up but nothing changes. I don't understsnd why this process have to be so loooooong and drawn out. I know they have thousands of application to process but I really think they can be done quicker

It's really sad what goes on at NBC

 

An agency like that should have enough manpower to handle cases fast, considering how much revenue is being generated from their exorbitant fees..

 

The most disheartening part of it for me is the pace at which ead applications are being processed.. If as at Dec 31st they were processing ead applications of Oct, how do they explain them processing ead applications of Nov as of March 15th... 

 

Isn't that crazy!? 

 

Am just gonna get my mind off till something substantial happens to me and stop getting my hopes high off other people's suggestive posts..

 

 

Idk which status you two are adjusting from, but I can tell you AOS is not as excruciating as K1. At least now I am no longer half a world away from my husband. I say enjoy all this free time you can spend with your spouse and maybe start a new hobby or learn something new. Distractions make all this waiting not so painful. I know it feels kinda bad when someone gets good news and you check your case and nada, but hang in there, stay positive and keep busy. Time will go much faster if you don't keep thinking about/checking your case. :)

I call them yesterday it was my 77 day  for my EAD  and put on a SR. She said they will get back to me within 2 weeks or so. Anybody done SR? 

I believe the average processing time for EAD applications is 90 days, but it has been taking longer recently. 77 days is still one month below average, so unless you submitted an expedite request, I wouldn't really be getting my hopes up. Many Nov and Dec filers are still waiting for their EAD.

I am planning to do an expedite request as well. I heard those takes time too. 

So idk its just a mess. If anything after 90 days im thinking to contact the congressman office as well. 

 

Have you received your EAD yet? Looks like you case is moving fast. i see you have an interview scheduled

That’s weird, I got my licence with the NOA from the ead. I didn’t have to wait for the ead, just the i797 was enough. I’m in Indiana where they usually make stuff difficult but that was really straightforward.

It is. I wouldn’t mind if it was the same for everyone but I see people already with updates or even receiving their ead and ap who applied after me and it’s heartbreaking when I’m waiting on that AP to see my brother get married in the UK (and I’m also a bridesmaid), I’ll be devastated if I don’t get it in time.

The office of the congressman wouldn't do anything out of the ordinary, they are simply gonna send in inquiry on your behalf just like everyone else..

 

Nevertheless, please exhaust all your options, as for me I've done expedite request, service request and also gone through my congressman's office.. 78 days as of today..
