USCIS claims we did not marry within 90 days, but we did.

Update: looks like things are moving forward

 

 

Strangely, the employment authorization application hasn't updated since biometrics were taken, so there is a chance she'll get her green card before the employment authorization? Hope the work authorization application wasn't a waste of money.

 

 

I never received any type of approval, notice (apart from the NOA-1) or the card for both EAD/AP. Co filed them with the AOS. I used to get random emails stating there was "action taken" on my EAD after my N400 was approved. I'm pretty sure our applications were free in those days as long as you filed them together with the AOS.

Don't look at it as wasted money, see it as an expedite fee.

Filing or not filing for EAD has no direct correlation with adjudication speed for AOS.

OP asked if it there was a change to get the AOS approved before the EAD. I answered it is because it happened to me

OP expressed hope the money was not waste. I suggested to view it as an expedite fee instead of wasting money. 

I don't think I made a claim about speeding things up.

Clearly a mistake by USCIS - Did you include your receipt number from the approved I-129F petition on the I-485 application on the "underlying petition #" part? Did you include a copy of the NOA2 and does your name match on the marriage certificate and the NOA2 from the I-129F? If yes to all of this, I would respond to this RFE stating that you indeed did marry within the 90 day deadline and again include the scan of the visa page with entry stamp, I-94, NOA2 from the I-129F and marriage certificate copy showing marriage within the required time.

I would follow that exact advice.  If you did not include a copy of the NOA2 or the marriage certificate, that could be the cause.  Otherwise it is just a mistake the above action will prompt them to correct.
