Our EAD/AP combo card just arrived in the post today after receiving the approval NOA via the post on Monday. Happy days! Hope those that are still waiting will receive theirs shortly!

EAD approved yesterday with Case Status Online now showing as "New Card is Being Processed." To what everyone else was commenting, the AP is still showing status as "Case was Received." So while we did apply for the combo EAD/AP card, the site does only update one of the applications. While happy, would have been nice if the EAD/AP was approved around the holidays given we had an Asia trip planned  

 

All works out though since in two weeks we're going to Maui/Kauai  for our postponed honeymoon  

I have the same information on the website and yesterday I received the NOA for both EAD and AP in our snail mail. Don't worry about it, they'll both come at the same time.

How can I sign up for USPS to see which mail is coming in?

 

I saw in some posts that some people are using this function....however, I am not sure where I have to register. Can anyone forward me the link?

 

Thanks!

Sign up for USPS Informed Delivery

We just received a notification for EA being approved/card being produced. Based on the last couple of comments, it seems I should receive both AP and EA at the same time. Great start to 2019!

Thank you! I know the USCIS status update is not reliable and I shouldn't worry too much not having updates, but there's always the doubt that I could be missing something!

I think I'll call them to wish an happy new year and check if I'm not missing an RFE or something.

Based on months of following this thread, there are many others in the same situation so I would not worry too much about it.

For EAD and AP, I think the website only updates when it is approved.

For AOS, the only use for it now is that it removes the need for EAD and AP if that comes first. It's not going to happen for us since we're based in NY which seems to have a huge backlog of cases.

Things should start moving soon for Aug filers like us!

What status did you have on your I-485 before that? I think mine are not working, it's still showing fingerprint fee received even 1 months after I did my biometrics.

Same as you. We had fingerprint fee received since NOA. No updates until yesterday. All of a sudden I received 18 of the same text messages in the course of a night after not hearing anything for months. The old USCIS website is reflecting the update but not the new one. I will stop using the new USCIS for anything -- it's total #######!

Our NOA was received on Aug 8 and only today I received 3 of the same text messages and an email that AOS interview is ready to be scheduled. I checked the website and the same is updated. No interview date yet. I know from previous responses, a lot of AOS applicants had this reflect shortly after the biometrics. Ours just took much longer. Anyone else received any text messages today?

I did my biometrics on Sep 6 and it still hasn't changed. I called USCIS about that and they said the biometrics was ok and that for EAD and Travel the status doesn't change until it is approved. For AOS, mine is still the same before the biometrics. I think it won't change until the case office in New York picks it up.

Looking at AOS New York City filers for 2018, it seems there's been only 2 interviews so far this year. How is this possible? Or are people not updating their timelines.

We did my biometrics on Sep 6 but there has been no update on the USCIS website following that. I see a lot of you have "Case ready to be scheduled" or something more positive. Anyone else having the same problem as us? 

Filed on Sep 12 and received our NOA1 on Sep 21.

@neuronewyork. Stephen and I are US-UK same sex filers in September as well. Best of luck!
