National Benefit Center EAD Processing Time 37 months????

[ciculove]

Hi everyone,

My AOS and EAD applications are at National Benefit Center. I filed on April. It's currently said the processing time is for I-765 at NBC is 28-37 months? Does this mean to get the physical card, or to have the EAD card approved? How could anyone live here for 37 months without working while waiting for AOS?

Can anyone help explain? Thank you

Looks like a error. the 2017 date is way off. I applied in 04/18 and got it in 10/01/18. somebody screwed up.

my lawyers screwed me up BIG TIME....they never filed the I 765 with my AoS packet(apparently, the trainee paralegal forgot, anyways).... filed my own in June, tried to request 'Expedite' and this is USCIS reply, "Upon receipt of your request for expeditious processing, your case was reviewed and a determination was made that we need additional information to make a decision regarding your request. Please fax supporting documentation to 816-251-2299 Attn: LA0735, Div. 2, Team 1. Please include this notice with your fax." I am filling for an expedited on humanitarian grounds, wife laid off due to pandemic, we have 5 kids, I have degree but hands tied because of no work permit, please advice. what proof can i FAX. I NEED THIS WORK PERMIT ASAP, greencard can wait. I NEED TO LEGALLY WORK. thank you in advance

Usually, a job offer is needed. Good luck.

I hope so too! This is really crazy.

It is because of the furloughs and a way to avoid cases enquiries. Because now it is hard to be "outside normal processing time" right?

Your wife’s paperwork showing she’s laid off. Send kids birthday certificate so they see you have kids to take care of. Send all past due bills or even the current ones so they see that y’all are struggling.
