I sent my package on December 31st too  

I-485 submitted on Dec 21st, 2018
CASE is ready to be scheduled for Interview as of 30th Sep 19.
Received letter on 7 October 19 with appointment date for Nov 4th.

Iryna had her green card adjustment of status interview in Baltimore, MD this morning.  We arrived at  USCIS at 810am for our 830am appointment. Went through security and then checked in with the reception area. Sat down and got called back for our appointment at about 9am. Was in the room for about 30 minutes. Very very easy process. She went over the application line by line and asked me (the US citizen the names of her parents) and asked Iryna for my Date of Birth, her date of entry into the US, which airport she arrived in the US and our date of marriage. She asked for additional documents and we provided joint bank statements for both checking and savings, authorized user on credit card, joint car insurance, joint tax return for 2018, life insurance beneficiary , 401K beneficiary, joint health and dental insurance, joint insurance on engagement ring, about 80 photos of us together (of which she only wanted to keep about 15 or so because it would make the file too big). She said we had plenty of other evidence. Said everything looks great and that Baltimore policy does not too approve on the spot and gave us a letter which says to give them 120 days to review everything to make their decision. She advised it shouldn’t take nearly that long as this file seems pretty straightforward and she wished us good luck. All in all a very very easy process.

Hello everyone!
 
How many people is struggling with EAD i AP still?
 
I completed the online inquiry on 08/01/2019 and I haven't received an answer still. Last week I called USCIS and heard the greatest stupidity. Tier 2 tried to prove to me that my case is in normal processing time and the website is only for pending I-485. I was completely shocked and said that my case is pending since December / January and he said that the processing time on the webside doesn't include my case. Total nonsense! He said I don't have EAD and AP because AOS takes more time and that's why I have to wait longer. We apply after EAD and AP because AOS takes more time not the opposite! I tried to have a normal and intelligent conversation with tier 2 but he answered the same as some machine.
 
I feel helpless and consider employing an immigration lawyer.

Many November filers just started receiving EAD/AP cards or getting interviews scheduled, so my guess is that you might receive good news soon. 
 
Hiring an immigration lawyer would not help. 

No idea what that operator is on about. Call them again and see if you can get to someone different because that operator doesn't know what they're doing. When prompted for case number, did you enter the EAD's number or the AOS's number?
 
I'm still waiting for my EAD since October. They ignored my first service request sent in July. I called them last week and all they could do was send another saying I'll hear by email within a week (or by letter within 2). Might call them again today or tomorrow, and if it's not good news, time to get politicians and ombudsman involved.

That's horrible to hear that October/November fillers are still waiting  When I called I entered my EAD number. 
 
I think I'll call again this/next week.

Morning!
Wanted to share that we are today celebrating 260 days and still have hear 1 word from anyone!!
Whoohooo

All:
 
I am not going to use pomp-and-pageantry here, because it's not the prudent thing to do.  Many of you have been following my postings, some with grins, some with disdain, and some in support.  
 
I was left with little-to-no-choice but to file an Expedite request, as my situation was looking extremely grim with the upcoming termination of my employment that not only would eliminate our family's survival income, but also do a huge dis-service to the folks I serve and the community we all serve in my employment capacity.  I'm not going in to great details of my employment...but truth-be-told, I work FOR the citizens, residents and visitors that we serve in our city.
 
As of 1:00pm today, June 7th, my status has been updated to: "New Card is Being Produced".
 
I want each and every one of you to know that while I am enormously relieved, the welling up of my eyes is for all of us...EVERY ONE OF US...who continues to deal with extreme anxiety, stress, and frustration waiting for the process to move along.  I am not leaving us, just because.  I'm going to stick around and keep an eye out and share my encouragement and support.
 
For it is us who are doing these processes the way in which we are supposed to...legally...methodically...properly.
 
I wish everyone a safe and pleasant weekend.  Please...please...PLEASE do not give up hope.  That's all I've been able to rely on...and what I need you all to rely on, as well.   ☮️

Congratulations! We had our 6 months yesterday  

Congratulations! We had our 6 months yesterday  

Today marks 6 months since we were married! Trying to enjoy that while chasing USCIS about our expedite request...hoping this week brings good news for lots of people! 

Got news today that my EAD card is being produced!!! Anyone knows how long does it take to get it in the mail?

It is a new week for us all. 
Day 140 since applications were received by USCIS. 
 
Day 97 since rfie response was received by USCIS. 
 
I hope to get updates. 
I wish us all to get good updates on our cases. 
🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

Same thing happened to us.  Saw a letter from USCIS for approval of the AP but still showed Case Received on the old site. The new site actually did have the updates so you may want to check there to see if there is an update. Some people have also stated that there is no update for AP if you are getting a combo card. 
 
Congratulations!!

Hi! I came on a K1 visa and I filled on January 7th. Good luck in the process everybody!

Yay! Good luck!

USCIS took the payment on credit card today! 😁

Thank you! Good luck to you too!
