I’ve got a knock on my door! I’ve got the EAD! I’m literally holding it in my hand! Next week I can go to apply for the SSN!

Looks like our EAD/AP card was approved last night 😃

I checked our case status earlier today for EAD and saw no changes.  I just checked again for the EAD and saw this
New Card Is Being Produced
We should have in hand by end of the month, so we don't have to wait for the AOS interview for my hubby to start working
 
 
 

Oh. I’m sorry for that. I will be sending case inquiry too. I hope you hear from them soon!
Thank you! ☺️

Soooo this just happened!!!!! I am actually crying 😂😂😭😭🥺🥺 So happy!!!!!
 
 

not alone, no movement at all on EAD / AP as well.

Guy!!! Right now at 1 am I’ve got an email that’s says for my EAD the new card is being produced!!! I can’t go back to sleep just crying!! But they are happy tears!!!

Huge update on the the USCIS site. It says estimated wait time for EAD and AP approval moved from 6-8 months to 2.5-5 months for the NBC. I really hope its not a glitch or something but I just checked both and 10 minutes ago it was 6-8 months. It literally just changed to 2.5-5 months

Same here , I don’t even have a SSN ( I went to the office like everyone else , waited 6 weeks only to be told I can’t have one at this time) yet never mind AP EAD or AOS interview. I got a job  so I could get a letter to expedite only to get rejected, even though my husband lost his job in the process. 
 
I don’t depend on my husband for money I had a good job and made sure Id be fine and would have enough to get a car and get myself started and be able to go back home to see my family .
Now after we apply it’s suddenly 6-8.5 months for EAD? While some people
have their green cards already ?! 
I really do think they try and break you so you just give up and go home. Now every week my job here asks , can you start yet?? No I have to stay home and look out the window till probably October till someone ticks a box. First place I’m going when I do get AP is back to Ireland before I loose my mind. 
Sorry I needed to rant 😫 

We were notified via USCIS app that his perm residency was approved! GC on it's way! 5/31/19 interview. 7/1/19 approval! 

OMG guys, we just got the interview scheduled!! 😮 I have to wait for the notice to know the exact date but from what I saw in our thread the interview is usually in one month or so from the day the status changed, is that right? Or can it be much later on?
 
I did not expect that! USCIS processing times for our office are 7.5-24.5 months but according to VJ estimates some people in KC recently had the interview in 3 months after biometrics. Would match our timeline assuming we'll have the interview in a month or so. Crazy!

Got this little surprise this morning. At least now I can continue working.

I picked up the mail, and our interview seems to be on the 4th of June. For anyone interested here is a list (scan) of what is asked for the interview.

Hey everyone,
My case was updated 05/02  - interview scheduled. 
NOA 03/05, received an RFE, reply received 04/10 and today this. I wasn’t expecting it to go this fast. 
Now we’re waiting for the letter to find out the date. I hope things are going smoothly for all other Marchers! 

Anyone else find it EXTRA annoying when you put a comment about your USCIS status and someone always has to put
 
‘There are people from January 1989 still waiting so calm down’.
 
Yes Susan I am well aware of this as most of us here have been on the K1 or Spousal journey so we know how it works so calm yourself down, we are still allowed to talk about our case too 🙄🙄🙄🙄
 
Not been directed at me yet but I’ve seen it on others and man does it wind me up.
 
Rant over, have a nice evening y’all 😂😂😂😂

My understanding (please correct me whoever already gone through this process!) that if USCIS requires I-693 they will send you "pink courtesy letter" explicitly requesting it. It is not same as RFE, as they do not want you to send it to them, but they do let you know you have to get one, and bring with you to the interview. I do not think it is same as what you got which is interview scheduling appointment. This is a sample of the aforementioned letter:
