WOW that was fast, that is a great sign that things are moving faster. usually people are saying that within 2 weeks max you gets your EAD card, for the GC I think would require that the Visa Bulletin reach your PD, but maybe it can come faster, but having the EAD and AP the waiting for the GC gets easier becau you can work and travel for up 2 years.
Eb3 waitingApr 25, 2023
what was your status of i765 before approved? my i131 shows fingerprints were taken while i765 still in fees were waived
Greeen 2023Apr 25, 2023

PD is the date when you submitted your LC to DOL, not the date when you submitted to USCIS
Still Waiting Apr 25, 2023

Katherine NguyenApr 25, 2023

Greeen 2023Apr 25, 2023
yea @Katherine Nguyen probably your next step is interview or approval when the pd is current.
Katherine NguyenApr 25, 2023

wow, yours might be combo card.
Katherine NguyenApr 26, 2023
@Hanson Smith I thought it no more doing combo card.
BDV PUBLIC ENEMY #1Apr 26, 2023
@Katherine Nguyen yeah, I'm not too sure either. Mine were approved at the same time but I am waiting for delivery.
BDV PUBLIC ENEMY #1Apr 26, 2023
@Katherine Nguyen just checked my approval notice, it states a combo card. So read your I-765 approval notice. Hope yours are the same.
Katherine NguyenApr 26, 2023
@Hanson Smith thank you so much. I am waiting for the delivery also. Hopefully can get the combo card. How long of yours get delivered?
BDV PUBLIC ENEMY #1Apr 26, 2023
should arrived to me by end of weeks. I would say 2 weeks since 'new card being produced'.
Katherine NguyenApr 26, 2023
@Hanson Smith I see. What is your status before change to eb3 ?
BDV PUBLIC ENEMY #1Apr 26, 2023
