Wow all the Queens filers making me feel really good. I’m in Queens too. Praying that I’ll get some good news by summer. 

Good luck with your interview and keep us informed.

Anyone from Brooklyn heard anything yet? Grats to everyone that did!

[Galiz 31]

I’m  also from Brooklyn 

So far nothing😑 Since I got my EAD in September. Case is ready to be scheduled for interview since June 20th......

 

Would be nice to hear some good news, anyone? Interview notification?

Just saw that my I-765 status updated to "New Card Is Being Produced" -- no change to my I-131 status, but I hope that a combo card is coming! I wasn't expecting to get by EAD/AP until early May, so I'm pretty shocked to see this update! I'm a Queens filer and my priority date is 12/03/2018, so if I do get a combo card in the next few days, that would be just under 4 months.

 

I've been very heartened by all the news from Queens filers in this thread, so fingers crossed that more good news is on the way!

I'm pretty sure this has been asked, but I can't seem to find the answer (sorry!). Hubby and I filed May 2018 in Manhattan but are thinking about moving to Queens. Will we go to the back of the line if we do an address change to a different borough?

My card is in the mail, and should be delivered by Saturday! The great irony is the trip that I tried to expedite my AP for would have begun on Saturday...ah, cruel world! Very glad that my process went quickly, annoyed that it cut so close to the trip I thought was totally out of reach. 

 

For those curious, it'll be a total of 8 days from the "New Card is Being Produced" update to having the card in hand, and 117 days from the day my package arrived at the Lockbox to EAD in hand. My EAD status updated to "Card Has Been Mailed to Me" and "Card Has Been Picked Up By the United States Postal Service" in the interim, and hard copy approval letters for EAD and AP were in the mail today, dated 3/22.

Don’t know. We are in Manhattan and applied end of June 2018. Husband got ead/ap card end of Oct.  We’ve not heard anything except for those generic emails saying nothing has changed.  We’re going away for three weeks soon for our honeymoon and worried we’ll get interview then. Does anyone know how long ahead they schedule the interview from the letter being sent?  Going to have someone check our mail but we will mostly be unreachable.  

 

Sorry one other question.  When he applies for the EAD/AP renewal, can he travel on the current one he has until he receives the new one? I’ve read different things and he travels out of the country for work so want to check.  

 

Thank you!
