I tried to access my cases online today but it’s saying that my receipt is invalid (all 4 of them). Does anyone else have that problem.

I got a text confirmation on my applications on the 24 of November

I been reading that it takes weeks and even months until it starts working

I just checked now and it has been updated. I can now access them on the app. Maybe it will work after you get the mail-in receipts. My I-485 status is Fingerprint fee was received.

Hi, everybody! I have been a frequent visitor of ImmiHelp since 2009, the year I first visited the US. I was then scouring the internet for information on what to do before, during and after a US travel, when I stumbled on ImmiHelp. The website has detailed, specific steps/procedures, including samples of filled-up dis/embarkation cards, which was amazing, to say the least, because what I read then was exactly what I went through on the plane and at the airport lol! So now, I'm going through another journey, and ImmiHelp is here to help me again. It's a website with a heart, so bless you all on ImmiHelp! Anyway, like all of us here, I am also anxiously waiting and praying for positive outcome. This is my journey so far.........

From the site, it says within 90 days from filing for the ead

That differs from case to case. Just look at my schedule down below. I got my GC the Friday after Thanksgiving so over 5 months for the entire process.

Like i said from the site, it is 90 days. I am assuming normal processing. It can take longer due to other factors like RFE, background check finger print and and name check is taking longer like if your name is common and you resulted in a record, etc.

But if everything checks out, hopefully you'll get it within that timeframe.

I got no RFE, I have been in the states for over 16 years so I am pretty sure they have performed a background check on me. Even for DACA I had to provide a criminal record report. The earliest you can get the EAD is 90 days but it can take longer.

Like I said, every case is different.

Background check is valid for 1 year. I agree it is case to case. But that number is there for a reason.
