Case Processing
Still waiting on EAD after 4 months
Hi everyone,
I filed my Employment Authorization (I-765) along with I-485 and I-131 under a pending EB1-A (I-140) on March 31st, 2025. According to the USCIS website, 80% of EAD cases at the National Benefits Center (NBC) are completed within 3.5 months, but it’s been 4 months now and I haven’t received any updates.
National Benefits Center (NBC) IOE 09 314 Receipt date: March 31, 2025 Biometrics taken: May 16, 2025 Inquiry date: September 4, 2025
It’s getting a bit frustrating seeing so many people receiving their EADs within a much shorter timeframe while mine seems stuck. I’m working with a lawyer, and he mentioned we’ll submit a case inquiry if there’s still no update by the inquiry date.
Is anyone else in a similar situation (same IOE range or similar timeline)? Would love to hear your experience or any thoughts on what might be causing delays.
Thanks in advance!
2ND RFE here
so they are requesting secondary evidence of my country of birth, with at least one parents name.
I sent my birth certificate, so I am a little confused as to what more they need. I’m Canadian, does anyone have experience sending secondary birth evidence?
they are also asking me to recalculate my husbands income for I-864 and resend tax and w2 information. he does very clearly meet the sponsoring requirements so what else should we send as proof? would his current paystubs work? they mentioned a joint sponsor, but we really shouldn’t need one as my husbands income exceeds the requirements.
any help is welcome!
I-130 approved
Finally, finally finally Al Hamdullah After waiting almost 15 months just got my wife approval thank God I’m so happy today wish everybody who’s waiting good luck and don’t lose faith. You will get it soon. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

EAD renewal decision still pending. Anyone else in this situation ?
My EAD renewal has been pending for 217 days now. I only received the receipt notice from USCIS and nothing since then. I sent my renewal application via usps on Dec 21,2024. They received my case on Dec23,2024.
I’ve seen people who applied after me already get their EAD renewal approved.
My priority date is March 2022 (EB-3 Other Workers).
Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this kind of delay. And if you know any suggestion please recommend me in the comment .
Thank you.

Confirmation on when to file for citizenship.
Hi Everyone,
I have a question regarding when to file for citizenship. I know joining the military would make it faster.
I’m currently divorced, is it still gonna take 3years after receiving my Green card to file for Citizenship regardless of being married or not or I have to be married to a US citizen to achieve that?
Thanks in advance!
RFE Response to Activity Reviewing Timeline
My RFE response date is 10 October 2024. Recently my status got updated to actively reviewing on 10th July.
When do you think I should expect decision?
I heard that if they got late more than 2 weeks to make decision it’s most likely denial.
What’s your thought on this?

Did anyone update name on Indian passport (marriage) after Green card was approved?
We received green card this month. my wife is looking to update the last name (marriage name) on the card. I believe for that we have to get the Indian passport updated first..
what should be the sequence of the updates?
- INDIAN PASSPORT
- Green Card
- SSN
- DL
Any one did the similar updates, and any insights would help?
