October 2018 Filers

[CentralPerk]

The EAD/AP are contingent upon the background check. The bio appointment takes your fingerprints, picture and basically starts the background check with the FBI. The sooner you go in for bio, the sooner your background check will clear, hence putting you in line for the EAD/AP. Barring any RFEs, you will also be put in line for the interview for the I-485. It is not a huge gain, just a few days, but it is still something.

Wrong information ,

Biometrics are for I485 , Not for EAD /AP . Oct. filers ( non-MSC ) have started getting EAD/AP before their biometrics appointment is scheduled .

For those who applied for the I-765 along with the I-485, the bio appointment is for both. The bio appointment letter contains both barcodes for both forms. The EAD can?t be issued before the biometrics.

My PD is Oct 1st. Had my biometrics appointment on Oct 31st. I also haven't received any updates. Not sure why it's taking so long. I filed with a lawyer so I was hoping we have submitted all the evidence. So we're on the same boat

July 2018 people still don?t have any updates on their EAD?s. I filed July 13 with a lawyer and have had no RFE?s and still no EAD update.

Do they let you know by text or in your case files online, like they do upon accepting the paperwork, that the biometrics appointment letter is on the way? Or do you just receive it in the mail with your date to go in?

Hi - no they don't, I believe it's basically sent out the day after the biometrics fee is marked as accepted on your i-485 tracking - see my timeline, I basically received the biometrics a few days after the NoAs.

Same here, no updates after biometric was done. The case tracker hasnt made any single change since i got my receipts. It looks like its going to be a long wait
