Start working without EAD (due to EAD card delay)

[ciculove]

Hi everyone, I ran into this info on USCIS site, stating that we can use the notice/receipt to use as "EAD" for now and start working.
Anyone knows about this or have extra information?

Is it for Marriage based also?

I believe its the approval receipt they are talking about, not the received receipt.

is it confirmed. does it mean the approval receipt or just receipt that we have I 765 pending? work permit is the most important, esp right now. someone please confirm this

From what I understand, USCIS is having problems printing the cards, so now the approval NOA (not the receipt NOA) is valid to start working without the need to receive the actual card that it could take time to be printed and delivered.

Make sense! Thanks so much guys!

Yes you can, show the notice of action to your place of work or dmv. But check first the "automatic extension of EAD in USCIS guidelines" if your case fall in those list.
I hope it helps.
