It took 5 days from the website saying approved to showing up at our house. I signed up for informed delivery (I was impressed because they do it in Baltimore). And it will show you the moment they ship it and the estimated delivery date of the priority package!

 

Also probably good just to have informed delivery in Baltimore in general. I have lived in Baltimore for 7 years now and there was a period of time 5 years ago when my mail was disappearing. Also as you are probably aware, packages tend to disappear in the city on occasion. Good Old Charm City.

Did you do informed delivery for USPS or UPS or which one is it

im gonna sign up for it saves me checking the mail box everyday

Mines skipped the approval stage, online just straight to new card being produced. Which I’m hoping speed things up for me

Awesome! My husband received his EAD approval the same day as he received a job offer for a position that he had be interviewing for over 3 weeks. Timing always seems to be perfect! Hopefully it will continue this way

So after my status changed to new card being produced

How long until it comes through, I’m wary cos of thanksgiving it’s gonna delay things

Congratulations! I know you have been waiting for a while now!!! YAY!

Thank you 

the timings perfect, my work visa expires in 10 days so I shouldn’t have any issues with not working

So say, a week after you got the similar email I received today?

I called the number you gave me. I was just told to wait as well.

Thank you guys 

I was fortunate I have been able to work during this whole AOS 

my case ease went from being received to new card produced, thankfully 

Since Monday I have had congress enquire for me, I have spoke to Tier 1 who put another SR in for me and spoke to Tier 2 officer, 

11 minutes ago, AshMarty said:

We got an update from the website first and the approval letter a day or two later. From approval to receiving the card at the house it took 5 days

My online status  has changed to new card being produced, I got the text today. 

SO now I’m waiting on the approval letter and card 

So I got a notification by text today saying check my status and it  now says online 

New Card is Being Produced 

Just now, Ehri&Mark said:

Oh okay. It’s also my 3rd SR but it was never assigned or completed. So really hoping this time is good news. I never involved a congressman though.

My second SR which was completed was done in 12 days

when i rang and spoke to Tier 1/2 both said the same thing that it’s still pending 

the SR doesn’t help at all 

20 minutes ago, AshMarty said:

I got a letter similar to this and two days letter received an approved notification from the website. So fingers crossed it means someone is looking at your case. Good Luck!

Did you receive the approval first on paper or did your online status change first 

Just now, Ehri&Mark said:

Are you using a different website to check your case? Cause mine on the USCIs web only says case was received and nothing else.

I’m using the case tracker app, even on the website it shows the same thing, 

this is is my 3rd SR iv raised, 

1st SR didn’t get assigned 

2nd SR completed 

3rd SR currently in process 

my local congresswoman has also sent an enquiry for me on Monday 

5 minutes ago, Ehri&Mark said:

I really do hope that’s the case on mine too. That’s my 3rd SR, although I got an RFIE for AOS.

This is my current situation 

5 minutes ago, Ehri&Mark said:

Okay, so I just received an email from USCIS. I received an RFIE Oct 5th and I gave my response to them Nov 9th. On Nov 11th, I made an SR for my I-765. Today the email said:

Dear ******

On 11/11/2017 you, or the designated representative shown below, contacted us about your case.  Some of the key information given to us at that time was the following:

Caller indicated they are:
-- Applicant or Petitioner

Attorney Name:
-- Information not available

Case type:
-- I765

Filing date:
-- 07/10/2017

Receipt #:
-- MSC********

The status of this service request is:

Your case is currently under review.  You should receive a decision or notice of other action shortly.

 

 

Does that mean they assigned my SR to an officer and I should be able to hear something for my EAD soon?
 

That’s exactly what I got, and I still have no decision.

my Sr was completed and still no decision.

I tried them too, so I put one, never heard back, then I put another and it was responded to within 7 days! There are apparently different types or SRs, so put in another one and you will hear back for sure

 

The SR you heard back on did they give a decision or did it just say completed 

i have another SR in which they respond in 10 days and my local congresswoman has enquirerd for me

anyone with any updates at the moment?

Pointless 

No1 knows anything 

SR Request are a joke, they complete them and don’t say anything 

4 minutes ago, Ehri&Mark said:

What USCIS number did you call to speak to T2 officer? Any luck?

So i received a call back from Tier 2 officer, again not much help. All she could say to me is that they have not made a decision yet and to keep waiting.

The service request i started today means they have 10 days to answer me, however it doesnt mean they have to give me a decision by then, my EAD is still under review

I called the standard number, when i got through to a tier 1 officer, i requested tier 2 and then they called me back 5 hours later

Yes. It's been 128 days for my husband and he still has yet to receive his EAD or AP. I've submitted two SR's and contacted our local congressman. Going to call USCIS again and request a T2 office today and also call the congressman's office.

That is what is lacking with them. They should be more transparent and efficient with their service. :/ 

 

Let us pray for good news soon

It doesn’t matter to the people processing it. 

All we are is a number and that’s it, we got our local congressman involved to email in and see what happens

Just now, biggiehuggie said:

We are on the same boat although mine is on day 104. I have raised two SRs, none of which was assigned until now. One of them is supposed to give me feedback by Nov 15th. I intend to call them if I don't receive any reply in the next couple of days.

 

Now that they are already processing September filers as per the USCIS website, I sure hope that they can provide at the very least, an explanation as to why there is a hold up. 

 

Will keep everyone posted for any update. 

My SR was completed but still haven’t heard anything 

started a new SR today by the a tier 1 officer which gives me a response in 10 days

it wont tell me why it’s been held up though, 

Just now, FindingAnswers said:

I agree! I've seen that. The hoops you have to jump through throughout this entire process is beyond belief and then you have to put your entire life on hold. I contacted my local congressman's office (the washington offices only handle legislative issues) and they are forwarding a document that I must fill out to release information to them. They said they would contact USCIS on my behalf and get an update. 

Hopefully this gets the ball rolling! 

No wonder people come here illegally 

just called and spoke to Tier 1 agent, she was helpful, she has submitted another SR request for me which I’ll hear in 10 days what the hold up is

all she could say is that she doesn’t know why they take so long it’s at random 

Just now, FindingAnswers said:

I called today for Tier 2, wait time of 300 minutes lol

spoke to my local congress office, they are emailing for me today, to try find out, then they have to wait a few days before they can call 

Just now, T_P said:

I have SR also and waiting them to call me back since last monday. 

My 2nd SR has been completed, went to a person and completed but still haven’t heard nothing and no status change. 

Tier 1 offices are useless and don’t tell me anything.

my file date is July 26th 

Has anybody who filed in July not received there EAD yet.

Im currently on day 110, done 2 SR and now having my local congresswoman look in to it.

Tried to speak to Tier 2 officer, hopefully they call me back

Am sorry to say but if you receive a RFIE then the clock gets reset and starts again...

 

"""If we issue a request for initial evidence, the date for calculating the processing time will start over from the date we receive the initial evidence.

• For example, if your case has been pending for 60 days when we issue a request for initial evidence and you respond 30 days later, the date for calculating the processing time will start on the date we receive your response. """

https://www.uscis.gov/forms/tip-sheet-employment-authorization-applications-pending-more-75-days

@Aviinashh what does it mean if your Service Request has been completed, but I still haven’t heard anything.

My EAD has been 110 days now 

Thank you, my EAD has been pending 104 days

SR completes when I rang today all the woman kept saying to me was that I’ll know more soon but she didn’t give me a timeline
