EAD/AP- Primary (myself): No update yet, case not found.
i485: Cases not found.
RN: SRC1290146***
Isn't it weird that dependent's EAD/AP gets approved first and primary's later?
I received combo card and can track both status. Spouse received a combo card and can only see EAD status and no AP status.Quote:

Gurus - I have a Quick Question. "Taking Infopass will delay the I-485 approval process?" More than one said that their attorneys told not to go for Infopass appt. and that is not advisable... Gurus - pls share your experience ...
BTW, i am the NSC - dec filer still waiting for the approval and thought of going for infopass this week ... Its already more than 108 days ....
Just called USCIS to check for my reciept number. I told them my wife (dependent) got the EAD/AP approval and combo card last week and I am still pending.
She said she is not sure why that would happen - someone must have pulled the wrong file from the shelf..our normal processing times are 90 days and it is too soon that she got her EAD/AP considering that the applications were received on February 2nd.
What should I make of this?
It only means you need to wait. Ther is not way they will revoke wife's EAD. But I am a bit puzzled - even if wrong file was pulled .... I would';ve thought that primary and secondary are all together. Apparently not!!

I am more tensed then before ... anxious to see actual text.
I live 45 miles from my service center ... hope i could go and collect the letter myself :-)
It's a blessing in disguise. You got a RFE but it means they are working your case. Usually it's pretty straightforward to address an EVL issue.Quote:

I have 3 dependents on my case .. they had no updates as of now .. what does that mean? Are there cases OK? Have there files been touched and are OK ? I had not so perfect NABC submitted for my wife alongwith affdavits/school docs etc .. so just want some opinions on that ... I understand no one knows for sure when they can open a rfe for any case but just looking at the pattern so far.. is it ok to guesstimate that dependent files are ok if only primary gets rfe ...
comment please

Thanks for the link. I called the FBI FP check at 304-625-5590. I had my FP done on 01/26/2012 and they said result was sent to USCIS the same day.However they gave me a different number to find out about Name Check and Background check which is 202-324-2399. But when I call this number it just tells me to check the website www.fbi.gov and frequently asked questions.So no luck there.Quote:

My wife's EAD arrived last week and my case's status was updated to "Card production" today stating that the card was mailed yesterday. Yesterday the case status was not searchable/found on USCIS website.Quote:

I assume if you go overseas and return on AP, you still get an I-94. Is the I-94 even relevant?(If this is wrong then no need to read further :D )
In such a case, the I-94 would probably be valid till the expiration date of the EAD card. Now, when you renew the EAD/AP card, do you need to leave the country and return to get a new I-94 ?
With H1, you get the I-94 with the I-797 approval notice but with EAD, you don't.
How does this work?
I had the same experience, my spouse's EAD/AP were approved on 9th March and he got the physical cards on 15th March. I could finally see my case status online yesterday for EAD. So it was around 10 days after my spouse got approved. Looks like the cases are being processed randomly.Quote:
