Any January Filers receive EAD card or interview notice?

Congratulations! Thank you for sharing the news. This also confirms our (conspiracy) theory about the glitch. It's good to know!
Thank you! I?ve reading your posts and it helped us alot. Wishing for fast processing on your case and to the rest, too. I believe, the trend for 2018 marriage based filers with zero RFE will have an interview first. I believe they will not issue ead and paraole first as it will save time for them to process given that GC will satisfy ead and parole.
Marriage based interview for GC approved on 01/04/2018
But still haven't received any notification or my GC.
How much time it take to receive GC after approval any idea?
I am in Phoenix, AZ and I have DACA, then applied for Advanced Parole (was approved) and now am adjusting through my spouse who is a USC.
USCIS received my case 1/23/2018
Biometrics 02/12/2018
Interview notice received 04/02/2018
Interview is 05/08/2018
Not sure why or how it went to fast but I am thankful. I have been married to my husband for ten years now, we have two boys together. Hopefully I get an answer that same day

Another DACA Recipient got a speedy case too on here. IDK if DACA Recipients are made first priority or what but congrats

My filed office is Phoenix too but I am still waiting for my interview notice. USCIS website told me they were scheduling my interview since Oct 5th 2017. I didn't even expect it would be that busy in Phoenix. It's probably the longest waiting time office through the whole country. SIGH
11/14/2017, I-765 status was changed to "New card is being produced".
11/16/2017, I-765 status was changed to "Card was Mailed To Me".
11/18/2017, Approval notices were received in mail for I-765 and 1-131. they would be valid for one year.
11/20/2017, Combo card was delivered.
09/06/2018, EAD renewal was received.
09/17/2018, Fingerprint Review was completed.
11/19/2018, Interview was scheduled.

Just my opinion tho.
You're welcome! You know, it just makes business sense to skip the EAD/AP and go straight to interviews. Let's hope your prediction is true. My spouse's biometrics got cleared the same day on the 12th. There was an update "we reviewed your biometrics and are still reviewing your case", AND USPS shows an envelope from USCIS coming in the mail.- postmarked April 12th. It was supposed to arrive yesterday, but we had a two day blizzard. I'm hoping this is not a RFE. Hayzoos!

I wish they can streamline the process esp if it is marriage based filing. Saves time and manpower/resources.
My status is just the same. "case received" and "received biometrics fee" for both. my PD is 02/20/2018. Hope to hear something soon.
PD - 2/20/18

February 10 received appointment for biometrics
February 28 biometrics done
April 17 received initial appointment letter scheduled for May 21
I didn?t receive any update through mail or texts. My online account still says case received.
I?ll update you guys on any other changes.

I'd say that there's likely a highly efficient adjudicator getting out cases that are easy/straightforward approvals. I mean, why make those people wait? I would think being a DACA recipient has to help. You're in the system, you've probably renewed your EAD several times, and in her case, she's been married for 10 years. That interview is more of a formality. She is going for the 10 year green card. Let's send her home.
My spouse had just gotten the F1 EAD approved back in August. So the biometrics were cleared the same day it seems. Having 4 names PROBABLY helps, too.

You were right! It was the I-693 courtesy letter. When I saw yellow, huge relief. And now the wait continues...
Thats a huge relief! For sure you will get the interview notice soon as you front loaded your application and given also the trend of having a interview sooner before they get the tidal wave for the employment based and DACA applications.
