HOW LONG HAS IT TAKEN FOR ANY OF YOU TO GET YOUR WORK PERMIT? OR HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WAITING?

Hi,

 

You can either review VJ's timeline section or do a search on the board for how long EAD is taking. Currently it is around 4 to 6 months.

EAD (work permit) & advance parole (for traveling and re-entering the country) for AOS applicants are processed through the NBC. EAD is taking 3-5 months on average to process. I got mine in exactly 4 months earlier this year.

Hi, May I ask how did you expedite your work permit request?

 

Thanks

You call USCIS and request an Expedite, they'll contact you requesting evidence for your request in 3-5 days. I submitted bank statements as well as medical bills. You could also use a job offer. Good luck!
