EAD renewal under AOS c(9) at SRC approved
I want to share that my EAD renewal under AOS was just approved at the Texas Service Center. my PD is 2/9/2021.
I tried to expedite 3 times, 2 myself and one through congresswoman, they were all denied.
I hope this helps somebody.
approval took 310 days, my 180-days extension ended on 12/12.
I don’t know if this was just luck.

thank you for sharing and congratulations. is this for pending i485? if so what is your timeline for that case?
C LpDec 16, 2021
what a relief! at least you were only 4 days without your ead… I am at the same boat… praying to receive my renewal at least until March 20 when my extension will end. good luck in your whole process
P GDec 16, 2021

P G was this a renewal you had?
C LpDec 16, 2021
his ead pd is 2/9/2021 according to the text
P GDec 16, 2021
@C Lp no RFE so far, still on “received” status, I am really hoping to see some movement soon
P GDec 16, 2021
@CG 7 yes it’s a renewal
C LpDec 16, 2021
hopefully for all of us 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I am hopeful for all of the you as well. to be honest this was a big surprise, I did not expect it to be approved before February. we are still waiting for my husband’s one, which was filed a month later (he has a different expiration) and we are really hoping we get his renewal before expiration as our healt insurance and even housing is connected to his job. so although a big positive surprise is only half of the story

An early Christmas present, congrats! I would do anything to get mine before Christmas or at least by end of Jan.

@P G Congratulations! I am also in eb2 niw. my stem OPT EAD will expire on next month and I'm the breadwinner for my family. I have already submitted EAD expedite request under AOS. what kind of documents did you provide for expedite your EAD?
P GDec 16, 2021
@p palle I submitted a letter from my company stating the amount of $ loss my work interruption would cause and other things like that. but I wasn’t successful with the expedite.

I also did the same PG and it was pretty substantial response, contract negotiations etc. - the response I got was that it was not ‘emergent in nature’ - even though the standards ask to show severe financial loss, not an emergency.
