Interview scheduled before my ead

[jaykay85]

Hi
i checked my case status online and he says my i485 Case is ready to be scheduled for interview; and i haven't even received my working authorization yet. do i have a reason to be concerned?
My other worry is, how can i provide evidence of bonafide marriage without a social security number.(joint bank account, car insurance etc)
As of now the only thing my husband and i have together in our names are the lease, military spouse id, which is also a health insurance card and a few court wedding pictures.
Are there anything else we can have together in our names without necessarily needing a social. Thanks

Hi,

First of all, your statut "case is ready to be scheduled for interview" can stay like this for few months. My case is ready to be schedule for interview since October 11 but I didn't receive the date yet.. and receive my work permit last week !

I'm still waiting for my social security number (I applied last friday when I received my work permit) but I opened a joint bank account with my husband 1 year ago, without social. I also am on the car, life and health Insurance of my husband.

Hope it can help you.

Why should you be concerned? You should be happy that your case is moving fast. If your green card is approved before the EAD is processed, you don't even need the EAD (and it will be automatically denied).

You don't need a social security number to open bank accounts or be added to insurance, etc.

No worries, same thing happened to me. on june 3 got the message "that interview will be scheduled" , then 11 days later it said "interview for july 19.. We went to the interview and got approved right away, and stats changed to "card being produced".. one week later I received my green card, and about a month later The EAD which you can put it away since your Green card is the Document you want to use. Good luck with everything!
