February 2019 filers

[chrizziam07]

Hello angela421alex,

We are on the same boat and getting frustrated as well.

This is my information:
02/20/2019 i-485, i-131 and i-765 received.
03/18/2019 finger print appointment.

No update since then.

I am wondering the same as you if it is worth to call them or not.

Could you please share your timeline and processing center?

Good luck,

Carlos

Hi angela421alex and carlos
We are all on the same page. 144 days now and no signs of EAD. Im thinking of applying and try to call them if ever i get any job offer letter to expedite my EAD.
Gemini21 is correct I’ve been following December January and even March filers and it seems that some of this people got their GC without having the EAD approval. Hope we get ours soon!

Hi chrizziam07,

Thanks for sharing this hopeful information.

I really hope everybody will receive good news soon.

Just sharing "no" update so that everyone knows they're not alone

my timeline so far:

2/5/2019 package arrived
2/6/2019 I-797C Notice (I don't remember what day i physically received it but notice has the date 2/7/2019)
2/8/2019 Biometrics Appointment Letter scheduled for 2/26/2019 (along with I-797C, I don't remember when I had the letter in hand)
2/15/2019 Biometrics Walk-in
2/20/2019 Biometrics review completed (on case status)
2/21/2019 Case is ready to be scheduled for interview
4/15/2019 Card in production (combo)
4/19/2019 Card was mailed to me

I have my combo card with me but no movement on the interview scheduling

I think my combo card was unexpectedly "expedited" because I didn't formally request that case be expedited, yet I did reference (I had to include how I last got into US anyways) how I received advance parole and traveled last year due to my sick grandmother (emergency AP) and just wrote "it would mean a lot if the she gets to meet her granddaughter-in-law".

Can't really take any vacation time from work till late September but combo card being issued so fast did allow me to find cheaper plane ticket and plan it better.

Oh and I do have question about traveling on combo card. If I wanted to follow wife's family to Canada (They're taking a vacation trip because Texas is too warm during summer time), is this allowed? or is AP really only for emergency traveling and really isn't worth it to go out of country without valid reason.

They received my case on Feb 5th,
I have got update that case is ready to be schedule for an interview on March 20th, after that I haven't heard from them at all.
I would love to get interview as quick as possible but we are from NYC so I highly doubt it since the processing time here is out of this world

Yes, i believe its NBC. I have no idea how you check it, we sent everything to Texas, never got any info if NBC is processing it or if it’s being processed by Texas, I think they send it to NBC because Texas processing time passed Feb 5 and im still here with no EAD lol so yup, I must be at NBC

You just have to check the first 3 letters of your receipt number.

MSC – Missouri Service Center (now known as National Benefits Center)
LIN – Nebraska Service Center
TSC – Texas Service Center
VSC – Vermont Service Center
WAC – Western Adjudication Center (now known as California Service Center)

what if the interview was scheduled past my current visa admission date? (exactly one week difference)? would it be considered as a violation?

Case status

I?m a February filer too. Spouse of USC. I?m getting really worried, looked up my case status, and it says an rfe was mailed to me but I haven?t received my biometrics appointment notice yet. Does anyone have an idea of what it could be?
Form I-485, I-765, I-864
Timeline
1/22/19 - Priority date(I-130)
2/16/19- sent through USPS
2/22/19- I-485 received by USCis
2/25/19- finger fee accptd, card charged
2/26/19- 2 NoA texts
3/02/19- 2 NoA mail
3/06/19- rfe notice

If you want to know what the RFE is about, I suggest you set up an Infopass Appointment at a local USCIS office. Or you can call USCIS and ask the rep to do a Service Request in order for you to know the RFE. MY RFE arrived in the mail in 5 days.

We have exactly the same timeline. On March 20th my case was updated to ready to be schedule for interview, 118 days after and still no news, no ead. My friend filing from Florida who just filed last March just got an update today, her online account says Card was mailed to her for form i-485. Just like that no interview at all! Approved on the spot without the hustle and bustle of the interview process. I really dont know now how they process cases.
