Yesss! Woke up this morning to see an email from USCIS. they said a decision has been taken on my case and i should log into my account to view their decision. i just checked and it said my I-765 was approved and that my card was mailed to me on march 23rd! i got up and rushed to my mailbox and behold MY EAD!!!!!! Thank you lord! been waiting forever for this. Time to get that drivers license and get a job!

It's Day 110...Nothing either. Put in for a request last week. Should hear something on April 2. Hoping we all hear something soon. Its getting ridiculous.

Here is my suggestion...Just go back to Philippines were you can get all the peace and quiet you want there...Ijs...

Overall : interview went Good. Field Office :  Pittsburgh Pennsylvania
Waited 15mn ==> They called me.
Lady called me first alone: 
   1-Asked me to swear to say the truth before I we sit down 
   2-Took a picture of me and fingerprints of the right and left index.
   3-Took my passport to check and my wife's ID too
   3-Started asking the questions in the I-485 : my name, when I entered, 
   parents names..and then all the security questions at the end of the 
   form I-485. after that I signed at the end of the form.
   4-Called my wife in, made her to swear too.
   5-then we visited normally. She asked is was joking and laughing to us 
   and professional. The rest of the interview we were just visiting. She 
   didn't ask for any specific thing but she said you "Do you have 
    something  you want to give that you didn't send with he package" so 
    we showed her the pictures and she asked why my wife's family is not 
    there and explained why...Then I gave her all documents, lease , 
    insurance...proof of living together..She liked how we are organized...I 
    was fully relaxed me and my wife and we joked.
    6-At the end she said that she is going to give a standard paper saying  
    I came to my interview and she said based on the interview of today 
    she is recommending to approve me just one thing she has to verify 
    first is the background check before making the decision.Then she 
    asked if we have question ?
    7-So my wife asked how it works for ROC and  citizenship....And I 
    asked about E-verify...That is all. Than she took a copy of the form she 
   gave me and we joked and we left. 
As I remember she said I need to wait few days to get a update on my status. And she also said it will take up to 3 weeks for GC to be in hand.
Overall is good, no issues at all. They are nice. 
It was the end of the week (Friday) and didn't get any update online..So hoping to get an update by Tuesday next week.

we are at day 110 for EAD and AP and nothing, so i called USCIS today and put a service request in, Typical answer should hear something 15-30 days. so wait and hope!!!!!

My husband received his green card for permanent residency today out of the blue, without any updates or notifications from USCIS.  It arrived via Priority USPS mail (and therefore did not show up on the USPS Informed Delivery email because I'd have had to have logged into my USPS ID account to view packages, which I did not do).  The envelope arrived from Lee's Summit, MO.  Our Case Status is still dated November 27!!!  No interview, no notification of interview being waived, no texts, no emails.  
 
So, just because you haven't heard anything, doesn't mean that's a bad thing.  Keep your eyes on the mail!

Has your status ever changed from Fingerprint Fee Received?  We haven't gotten any updates since NOA1.  yawnnnnnnn.....

Gives me a little bit of comfort (somehow) knowing that there are others 100+ days in with no updates. 103 for me too.
 
Biometrics happened so fast that I thought things were moving, but then nothing after that.
 
My timeline is looking an awful lot like yours, @mighty836 plus about 10 days.

Hi guys, I just wanted to share smt with you, maybe that helps. I was trying to learn my tracking number for ead card, and I haven't seen any package on informed delivery (it sometimes happens), so I read somewhere that you can take tracking info when you chat through Emma on Uscis website. So, I tried, and I typed 'tracking number', i got some options and clicked technical difficulties, and after that I got an option like 'chat with a live representative'. It is much more easy than talking through phone in my opinion. He/she couldn't give me the number though, because card is just complete yesterday, but he/she said I can get the info through this chat when it is available. And first level customer representative that I talked on the phone was still seeing 'received' for my case, 'cause I think they are just allowed to see the updates on 'case status' page, not the other one. But this live chat representative knew my card is complete, etc. I just wanted to share:)

Thank you!  I would take just about any of those messages right now   Congrats!

We just called and spoke to a Tier 2.  She told me we have to wait 5 months for EAD.  Then she hung up

Good to know! I did check it out and it's all the same dates from the standard tracker info. I'll be stalking it like I stalk the other site

We're leaving to go to our interview in 10 mins, so nervoussssss. 
 
Let you all know how it goes  

the best tips or info we received was watching Youtube videos on everything from assembling the packet to questions asked at the interview, you name it they had videos on the process.
we submitted her CENOMAR with our original packet.
 
 

CMON now your talking about the US Govt. nothing happens quickly or rationally with them.

The timelines keep getting pushed back.  Ours is now at the end of March, beginning of April.  It's pushed back almost an entire month.  I don't get it.  We literally JUST did this with K1.  You would think it would be so easy for them to just get the file turned and on it's way.  

Hi! I was able to change me last name after we got the marriage certificate.. The lady from Social Security needed original marriage cert to check and I filled out a form stating that I want my last name change.. this is before we filed the AOS.. 

NO EAD and AP yet and even the tracking case in online never change into case was received and also my AOS still says finger print for biometrics where in i sent my RFE already

Hello guys, just got online update NEW CARD IS BEING PRODUCED
i’m super excited. Here is my timeline
 
filed nov 30
noa dec 4 
bio. Dec 29

Because the green card comes from the local office and my local office is probably one of the busier ones in the country so who knows how long it will take to get it.  As stated on here before, people with the exact same dates as me already have interviews scheduled and we haven't heard anything.  

I was just clarifying that the one year is issued date to issued date (which is shown on the visa in the passport) .. some are not aware on the exact date.  It sounds like you have everything well in hand and will be done easily.  All the best with the process.
 
Did you pay the visa fee?   
 
Process is the same as with the K-1, with only a few things age related.

And of course don't forget the CFO sticker.  Because of age, attending counseling is not required.   

Were they married?   No.  
 
The mother has SOLE custody of the child.  - that is the law in the Philippines.  You need NOTHING from the father.
 
Do remember the wording for FOLLOW TO JOIN is the K-2 visa must be ISSUED within a year of when the K-1 visa was issued, so start early enough to complete this process within the one year.

For children born to unmarried mothers in the Philippines the mother automatically has sole custody. 
 
I'll move this to the Philippines sub-forum also, as it is country-specific.
