MicaAshani, let's be filing buddies! My timeline is super close to yours! I'd be very interested in seeing if our cases track. I am a USC, filing for spouse. I assume you're also MSC YYYY ZZZ?
We still haven't gotten a status update for the I-485

Hey,

2/20 as well, wife is a USC. Had no rfe/rfie. Went to infopass since i get the user defined error was told also at process for interview to be scheduled.

May try to expedite EAD soon, was on a work visa and company laid off new company has been slow to give job offer and they thought EAD is 90days. Seems USCIS timelines totally changed these days.

Hi! Quick question - do you think you received your EAD so quick because you asked to expedite the process? My husband and I submitted our paperwork April 5th and so far my statuses say ?case is ready to be scheduled for an interview? (for the green card) and ?received fingerprints?. I just really want and need to start workind soon and have no clue how long it will take since it seems like they are still processing the papers from December 2017

Great. I too am a USC filing for Jamaican spouse. I am also MSC YYYY YYYY X. The last status update we received was on 4/18/18.

Would love to be in touch with you and see how things are going. We are pretty close in dates, submitted my papers in April

[Ch_Lusitano]

Am confused you guys, can anyone explain this to me

PD is 02/23/2018
completed biometrics: 03/29/18
last status update was 04/07/18 saying fingerprint review completed
Raised SR on 05/22/18 for severe financial loss (I have a job offer)

I just checked USCIS case status because the L2 officer said I will hear back in 5 days but I haven't heard anything

on the site it says:

05/22/2018: On May 22, 2018, your request to have your case expedited, referral number TxxxxxMSC, was assigned to an officer for response.
05/22/2018: On May 22, 2018, we sent a response to your request to have your case expedited, referral number TxxxxxMSC.
05/22/2018: On May 22, 2018, your request to have your case expedited, referral number TxxxxxxMSC, was completed.

What does this mean? where was the response sent to? I didn't receive a response?

how was everything reviews, responded to and completed on the same day?

Should i call back?
I am really confused.

PS: I have a job offer

To your home address. I had same thing happen to me. The letter will just say your case is under review.
I just had an infopass yesterday and took my employer letter saying they would have to fire me if EAD doesn't get to me in time.
Now, I have to wait some more.
The agent did say my case was on the queue for the EAD and for the interview, so we'll see.
PD was Jan 18th(on DHS website), Jan 12th (on USCIS website).

How do you check for the expedited request updates? When I put my MSC number and it doesn't show anything about my expedited request.

How do you check for the expedited request updates? When I put my MSC number and it doesn't show anything about my expedited request.

Try creating an account for case completion times in USCIS Website. Go to "Check Case Processing Times" on USCIS website, then enter your form number and processing center, (ex. I-765, National Benefits Center) Press the "Get processing time". In the middle of the screen you will see a link with the following text:
"Sign in or create a new account to see your personalized case completion time"
Click on it and create your account, after that you will be able to add your cases with the receipt number and you will find your case updates including expedited requests.

Good luck.

Can anyone tell me how long it takes after you fax over the requested proof(job offer) to USCIS to expedite EAD...how long does it take to hear back from them? I received their response in the mail and faxed them proof on monday but no update yet on uscis case status account. So am just wondering how long it takes

[hopeless12]

02-06-2018 We received your biometrics fee and are reviewing your case
02-06-2018 We received your case
02-23-2018 We need more information from you ( in between this time biometrics was done)
03-13-2018 We received your response to our request for more information. Your case is no longer on hold

Does the EAD have anything to do with this? If so since the case was on hold does anyone know if the clock starts back from the time they received the case initially or from when they uplifted the hold? I'm getting frustrated, my husband has no income what so ever.

Just wanted to see if anything had happened further on your EAD. My biometrics were done on 4/19/2018 and nothing has changed just curious so see if anything has happened for you at this point.

[Londonbroil]

Your case

Hi there I am curious to know if expediting made this quicker for you. I had all my filings done together I-30 approved I495 and I765

Biometrics 4/19
Case ready for interview I495 6/5
EAD no change still shows fingerprints have been received.
Next week will be the 90 days, not too sure its working out like that since the update to site.

I would appreciate any feedback, I too have a job offer that I am going to have to decline by the end of the month if there is no update to the situation.

Thanks in advance
