EAD approved but no AP
Hello, my case is being processed in Texas, it is a I-485 employment based. I apply at the same time for EAD and AP both being processed also in Texas. Today I got notification that my EAD Card is being produced but nothing about the AP. I thought that they were going to send both in a Combo Card, is it normal?

I got mine and it was only the EAD. “not valid for re entry “ still waiting on my travel document. lawyer told me some are getting approved as combo cards others like mine have to wait a little longer. at least I’m able to work 🤷‍♀️

Thanks Maria, for how long have you been waiting since your EAD was approved?
Maria MotaJun 9, 2022
I submitted my case Feb 7 this year EAD got approved March 10. I 485 is being actively reviewed and travel document was received and receipt notice was sent.

I hope you get lucky and get the combo card.

Usually, AP gets approved a day after EAD. That’s what happened to mine.

same thing happened in our case - they separated the combo card to move through the EAD approval quicker, there was some new on this back in March/April. Our case was approved before AP was processed

I just got a notification “card produced” on ead I checked online and it’s the combo card!!
P
Pablo GomisJun 9, 2022
Where did you see that it was a combo card?
P
P RJun 9, 2022
@Pablo Gomis under document on my account. *only my ead updated my travel still on “case received” but when I check on my account it’s combo card approved under the I-765 tab
P
Pablo GomisJun 9, 2022
@ P R thanks for the info. can you explain what do you mean with “under document on my account”?
P
P RJun 9, 2022
IOE*** have an online account that you create when you start your process. USCIS send you codes to create your account
P GJun 10, 2022
yeah I had the same as @P R updates only showed on my I765 but the notice said it was an approval for combo card and both employment and AP. check the notice not just the status. if it says combo card then you got both of only EAD then AP will follow
P
Pablo GomisJun 10, 2022
i don’t know where to check the notice
P GJun 10, 2022
@Pablo Gomis either on your online account or the letter you received in the mail. How did you get the notification for EAD being produced? Just here in the app?
P
Pablo GomisJun 10, 2022
it says: “on June 9, 2022 we order your new card for Receipt Number ……. and will mail it to the address you gave us”
P
Pablo GomisJun 10, 2022
for you did it say: “we order your new combo card?”
P GJun 10, 2022
no not in that part but in the letter scanned in documents
P
Pablo GomisJun 10, 2022
I just don’t know how to get there
P
Pablo GomisJun 10, 2022
how to get to documents, I log in into my USCIS account and I don’t know how to go to documents
P GJun 10, 2022
so on my account under the case I have 4 tabs: case status, case history, documents, representative do you see those? does your receipt number start with IOE?
P
Pablo GomisJun 10, 2022
no, I’m SRC not IOE
P GJun 10, 2022
that could be a reason for it. I believe IOE cases -IOE - USCIS Electronic Immigration System (ELIS)- have more access online maybe
P
Pablo GomisJun 10, 2022
I guess that is it
P GJun 10, 2022
good luck sir

The status of your I-131 is still "received"? I just got the approval of my I-765 this morning but nothing about the AP. I would cry of happiness if I receive a combo card!
P
Pablo GomisJun 10, 2022
the status of my I-131 is fingerprints were applied to you case
P GJun 10, 2022
for me they didn't update the status on 131 even though the notice says it's a combo card
L
L BJun 10, 2022
Got it. I can’t see if it’s a combo card online so will have to wait until I get it. Thank you!!!
P GJun 10, 2022
good luck

Pablo GomisJun 10, 2022
