EAD (WorkPermit)

Hello all, to those of you waiting I can't even begin to understand the frustration and anxiety that comes with this waiting game. Just know that if it has been too long keep pushing with whatever you can to contact any additional help. (Congressman, ombudsman). Don't sit idle, especially if the file date is way past 90 days. With all the DACA renewals all normal cases, mostly October and November filers got backlogged like crazy. Seems that from December onwards it's taking 120+ days to get the EAD in hand.

Here is my timeline;

AOS C09 married to USC

Case was received: 12/21/2017
Biometrics Appointment: 1/22/2018
First SR (74 days): 03/07/2018
Contacted Ombudsman: 03/22/2018
Second SR (90 days): 03/23/2018
Card is being produced: 04/19/2018
Case was approved: 04/21/2018
Approval notice in mail: 04/23/2018
Card was mailed: 04/24/2018
EAD in hand: 04/26/2018

I called every chance I got to USCIS. Even if I knew the info from the online case status I always wanted reassurance that it was correct. Called them for tracking number since I don't believe they post it online anymore.

I'm very blessed to receive my card. I hope the many of you that have waited or are going to start waiting to keep faith in God and try to stay positive. In this limbo waiting game God is the best strength we have.
