My wife and I are planning on going to her home country of Vietnam for a month in May of 2018. I'm just worried that her green card interview might be scheduled during the time we are there in Vietnam. If so, is the interview something that can be easily rescheduled?

We rescheduled ours with no problem, got a new time a month later. Just sent them the boarding passes.

Question: My husband went to the social security office yesterday to remove the conditions on his SS card. When he was at the office he was told he doesn't need to remove any conditions he just has to present his work EAD card when he accepts his job.  

 

I know people have talked about having to remove conditions on this forum and was wondering if his was different because he has worked in the US for 6 years prior to this process? We were a little confused? Thanks

Based on what I've read here is that you go to remove the conditions after you get the GC not the EAD. His Social Security Card probably says "VALID FOR WORK ONLY WITH DHS AUTHORIZATION." and the EAD works as the "DHS AUTHORIZATION"  Good luck!

Just wanted to share my recent experience with USCIS. My EAD and AP was approved October 13th. Today I called since the case status hasn't changed to card is being produced. I asked a lady who seemed nice enough when I could expect my EAD, she replied that it takes up to 60 days, so I asked her if she could see whether production of the card had started. She told me it hasn't. Discouraged I sat down to check my informed delivery 10 minutes later for other reasons. To my surprise I see that my card is supposed to arrive on Friday. Although I'm happy that the card is on  its way it makes me wonder if the people  there just make up stuff as they go. Anyway best of luck to everyone on their journey.

Hi everyone! 

 

My NOA is August 1st so technically I'm an August filer, but I noticed people at the end of July got their EADs already, I was just wondering if you did expedite request? I'm hesitating, I didn't really know too much about expedite until recently, and since someone is willing to hire me ONCE I have the EAD, I'm pretty sure I could have asked for a job offer and do expedite. But at this point I don't know if it's worth it, because if you got your EAD without expedite then mine should come in the next few weeks?

 

thanks!

I don't think expediting the case will hurt, but I was in a similar situation and I just decided to wait in the end. My noa date is less than a week from yours and I got approved a couple of days ago. 

Is there anyone here who have expedited their EAD and know if you get the AP approved at the same time or is the expedite request only for EAD? Thanks
