I read somewhere that it's a bug, but I also read somewhere that it's "employment based" because they intend to bypass the EAD.

Oh really? Yeah i dont know what it is. you can never know for certain with them.. 

thanks tho

That makes six of us. I got mine updated last night with “employment-based interview was scheduled.” Weird am filing for aos based on marriage (pd january 2). I have not gotten any mail yet though. So we’ll see. 

I am definitely not going to call. It says in the letter that i received that it is marriage based so i will just go with that for now and show up at the interview.

There is no way they made a mistake with the letter that they mailed so im thinking that it should be a computer error or smth!

Have you guys received anything about EAD yet ?

Hi Julia80, my status just updated the same as your, it is showing now "employment base interview was scheduled" while I am K1 AOS. I am abit confusing too 

Same here! I am adjusting from f1 visa based on marriage. 

But my online status shows as " employment base interview" im confused but it must be a glitch in the system or smth since we all got the same

The office of the congressman wouldn't do anything out of the ordinary, they are simply gonna send in inquiry on your behalf just like everyone else..

 

Nevertheless, please exhaust all your options, as for me I've done expedite request, service request and also gone through my congressman's office.. 78 days as of today..

 

 

That really sucks to hear that!! So then when should we expect it around what day 90, 100, 200 perhaps lolll ?

Mine is 79th day as of today im getting so tired of this so frustrating ugh

I believe the average processing time for EAD applications is 90 days, but it has been taking longer recently. 77 days is still one month below average, so unless you submitted an expedite request, I wouldn't really be getting my hopes up. Many Nov and Dec filers are still waiting for their EAD.

I am planning to do an expedite request as well. I heard those takes time too. 

So idk its just a mess. If anything after 90 days im thinking to contact the congressman office as well. 

Have you received your EAD yet? Looks like you case is moving fast. i see you have an interview scheduled 

I call them yesterday it was my 77 day  for my EAD  and put on a SR. She said they will get back to me within 2 weeks or so. Anybody done SR? 

What number do u call to expedite EAD and how do u get directed to an officer? like what numbers do u have to pick

Nope, the online status stops on March 1st, that was to let me know that they received my faxed documents and no updates since then. Today marks Day 70 and I'm not in the mood to rush anymore, don't want to deal with the anxiety that involves.  

Mine is day 70 as well today and im getting anxious. 

 I thought you would be approved as of now. omg it takes forever

My PD is January 2nd. You can search the forum for expedite tips. I applied due to a job offer.

What ever happened to your case? Did you EAD get expedited and approved? 

17 minutes ago, Wayoo said:

Medicals bills with due date and am email correspondence between me and a potential employer... That's all I've got...

Thank you! Sounds a lot like my situation. I will give them a call tomorrow too.

Have you gotten any response so far?

Let us know what happens and good luck

I actually gave them a call on Friday as regards my EAD application and I requested for an expedition.

 

The officer listed the criteria upon which such a request could be made and also be given some sort of consideration.

 

So I decided to go for financial loss even though it doesn't really encompass my reason. Later that evening I got a mail asking me to fax in some evidence to support my request..

 

Hopefully something good comes out of it.. And am on my 68th day by the way..

 

 

What did u provide as evidence ? Can u please share that 

Hi guys, 

i will be reaching 75 days this week for my EAD application. Do you think is a good idea to do an SR online about that?

Has anyone been successful with just an SR? 

I know most ppl didnt even hear back about SR they submitted. So idk what to do

Thank you!

I’m kind of tired of waiting for this ead. Got my lawyer to send in a request. Also got my congressman to do as well. Trying to reach my senator. 

Do you have a job offer yet? or did you just sent in a request cuz you have completed the days

A lot of 2017 filers still don't have an interview schedule, so don't worry about it. People normally get their interview schedule around 5+ months from the filing date, so me getting that interview letter is a rare case. Pure luck, I would say.

 

As for EAD, we're all still waiting. 1 month from your bio is still early tbh, but there's a good chance that some of us will get an approval this month. Hang in there, miss!

Has ur status been updated online like does it say the interview is scheduled already ? Or what does the status say online ? Just wondering trying to correlate with mine haha

Today, March 1st, my EAD online status updated again to "On March 1, 2018, your request to have your case expedited, referral number T1xxxxxMSC, was completed." I called in and they told me that my expedite case is still under review. So I guess they got my fax from Feb 27th and started to look at my case. Will see what their decision is.

That’s so awesome

congrtas! I’m sure it will get approved very soon
