My PD is 7/29. Do you know others from here? I wonder how long does it take to get scheduled.

Im estimating 1 year for Santa Ana based on the posts of previous months topics.

We sent in our renewal paperwork about a month ago. We also got the combo card in September and wanted to make sure we give them as much time as possible for the renewal if needed. Really hoping we get the green card before that but better safe than sorry! Luckily since most of the information is exactly the same, it didn't take too long to pull everything together.

How soon can you send the renewal of EAD?

My PD is around the same. Do you know anyone else who has received interview notice recently from Santa Ana FO?

I dont know anyone else. I see a few post in April group who just got interview notice, so I guess it should take about a year for Santa Ana office.

Congratulation!!!!

 

I've just request to expedite my case this morning for financial loss. What was your reason and what proof did you give? 

I basically have a job offer and I have no income at the moment.

Thanks a lot

I submit 3 things

1. Letter from current employer stating they want to retain me to avoid having to train someone else, etc -> financial loss for company (Im currently on OPT)

2. Letter of personal financial loss (I have a baby, my wife working less because of covid).

3. The email they sent

Hope this helps. 

I expedite my EAD on Jan 5th and today the i-765 changes to new card is being produced.

Its a beautiful day today for me.

Good luck everyone.

A positive update from my end, I have been able to successfully expedite my EAD basis a job offer (filled under financial loss category). Posting a timeline of the same for reference. My card arrived on 1/9/2021 (shipped through premium priority mail) and my SSN arrived today 1/11/2021 ( I had applied for SSN by checking the option my EAD). It has been a fairly quick turn around since I requested the expedite on 12/18/2020 and I feel there is still hope for people who had their biometric after like 7 months of waiting. 

 

How long does it take after you fax the evidence to receive a decision? Thanks in advance.

Very simple.

 

1. Call USCIS or chat to an agent through Emma (I chose to do it through Emma) and request to expedite your EAD. They will give you a Referral number. (It’s like a receipt # but for requests) 

 

2. Wait for an email from USCIS requesting proof for the expedite. You should get this email within 5 days of initiating the expedite request. The email will include the Info on who to send the proof to (Fax #, Division # etc.) Don’t forget to include a cover letter!

 

3. Nothing else! Just wait until you receive another email with a case status of approval/denial. This can take up to 30 days but in my case it took 1 day!

 

This whole process took 6 days total for me

Thank you!

My EAD expedite request got approved TODAY!! Insanely fast considering I requested it 6 days ago and literally faxed my job offer yesterday in the afternoon. USCIS are working hard!

Hi Ela, can you walk me thru how to expedite EAD please? Thanks.

Same happened to me , my i131 changed to fingerprints were applied to it , after 3 weeks of receiving my ead, hopefully it is not your case! 
 

I called thousands of times and my lawyer as well requesting the bio to be applied into all 3 app’s , they repeated all the time that they were going to send me a letter with the bio appointment for i131 afterwards so now i guess i was and all the people here were correct. Some agents are not delivering 100% accurate info on the phone.  

It changes from case to case, i believe. Mine was exactly 4 weeks

Thanks for the info

Should I expect EAD to be delivered 1 month after bio?
