EAD EXPEDITE INFO
Hey there everyone,
I have been doing some research and googling, trying to understand the reasons behind the aproaval of the EAD expedite. There has been cases that had EAD approved with a job offer letter, however some places say it needs to be for a more serious cause, so job loss etc ,Google: USCIS rejects the requests even if you have a job offer that might expire if you do not get EAD approval.
Has anyone expedited their first request for i765 in (or not) in Houston want to share their story?
thanks

I submitted an expedite request because of a job offer, the offer has no expiration date. it’s been a month, and USCIS didn’t get back to me.

Is there no case update on the portal like ‘Expedite request has been received’?
Sam ANov 24, 2021
I submitted it based on emergency and humanitarian reasons. The job reason is very mainstream I think and a lot of people use it
John DoeNov 24, 2021
Nope! nothing! also, I asked the congressman to check the status for me, and they didnt even respond to him. I ask the agent through Emma, and they keep telling me it’s still being processed.
First they said it takes 7 days, after the 7 days passed, they started telling me that it takes 7 to 30 days.
This Saturday markes the 30 days since I submitted it. Im sure they won’t even bother getting back to me with anything.

Sam A was your request aproaved or denied?
P NNov 24, 2021
Sam I haven’t submitted it yet because I want to think about it before doing so 😩😆
Sam ANov 24, 2021
I submitted expedite request last Friday and there was a status update to ‘Expedite request received’ on Monday. No updates after that. I think they can take 2-3 weeks to approve, deny or request additional documentation for the reason you want to expedite.
P NNov 24, 2021
thanks Sam, will you keep me posted please ? if you can! hope they approve it fast for you
Sam ANov 24, 2021
@john doe is there a current expedite request in progress? You can try creating a new one, if there is one already in progress they will let you know
Sam ANov 24, 2021
@N PSK I can keep you updated. I had my biometrics on 5th October so expecting status change for interview request soon
John DoeNov 24, 2021
It’s still in progress, I’m still waiting for a decision on it. The logic for submitting an expedite request, is because there’s urgency for it. might be the same to just wait for the work permit to come normally in this caee
P NNov 24, 2021
Sam I had biometrics 10/14!!!!

I had a job but with current visa expiring would need to quit. I argued that this hurts me financially as well as it would be a serious setback for the company as it would be hard to replace me in due time in the current climate. (I had an employer letter ready but they never asked) expedite request was accepted based on that.

PD renewal was August, expedited on Oct 27 based on financial loss, and didn’t hear back from them but yesterday my case changed to your new card has been ordered. This is for my 4th EAD tho not first

I had one rejected yesterday (TSC), they said they are being extremely strict with them and only approving ‘emergency’ situations which makes me think the severe financial loss is not being considered. I provided substantial back up.

congrats Sam, what service centre were you again? Also, is this off the back of your expedite request?
Sam ADec 23, 2021
Service Center is Lee Summit, MO. Maybe, I followed up with them on Tuesday regarding my expedite request and they had no updates. Still no updates on i485 after biometrics
