The fear of the physical copy of the biometrics appointment not arriving is another reason to really try to get the access code!
 
Glad you have the information!

I haven't seen a lot of new cases beeing created on the tool, so maybe they are doing new year preparation.

Considering the New Years, I'd give a few more days (I know, it seems we always been giving more days) before getting worried.
 
Did you submit a check? Was the check cashed?

You can create an account on USPS and you will have an option under the tab receive to sign up for Informed Delivery.
 
USCIS should inform you of your tracking code, in any case, as soon as the case status changes to Card Was Picked Up by USPS.

Yes, if mailing goes well. Mine changed yesterday to Produced, and today it was picked up by USPS and I got the tracking code. Should received it end of Week, or early next week, if mailing goes well.

Crossing my fingers for us! Never thought I would get so lucky with this timeline.

Got my approval last night at 2am ET for the EAD!

I applied a week after arrival, not married yet, and it got delivered a few days after.

I wasn’t asked for any. I went to a SSA with passport/visa, I-94 and my A-number and they did it for me. The SSN is restricted, so you can’t use it for work until you have your EAD, but it is helpful for bank account and other stuff.

I also just got approved for the EAD! That was fast. Was hoping for the combo card of EAD/AP,  but oh well.

I'm so impressed by and jealous of those folks who got EAD same day, I wonder why that happens for some folks and for others it takes months? They seem so random...

When applying for the Work Authorization, you will have to select which elegibility applies to you. You are going to have two options:
K1 - This will be only valid for the duration of your K1 visa (max 90 days, i.e. the permit would expire at the end of the 90 days after entrance with K1 visa) - in practice, I'm not sure how useful this is at the moment, as it is possible, if not more likely the permit would not be ready on timely manner, considering current processing times. Jointly with AOS. The duration of this one will be longer, and probably work for the time you wait for the Green Card; Processing times for EAD is heavily dependent on where you are applying for it. If you look into the timelines at VJ currently, some people are getting the work permit through AOS in roughly 30 days, others in a couple of months, and others have been sitting for quite some time.
 
To be fair with you, and this is not advice, I see no point in applying it through K1 currently. AOS seems to be the only viable option. But I may be wrong here. To be fair, haven't heard of anyone applying for the K1 EAD in the last few years. Maybe someone else have head.

Also got mine on Friday, and was able to retrieve it, but on Saturday got the physical letter itself with the appointment!

No Priority Date.
 
I got it a day after arrival, if I'm not mistaken. Most people are receiving it really quickly.
