Is EAD based on pending i-485 issued after i-130/i-485 is processed?
Hello,
I am a USC and filed for AOS for my wife from F1 in 07/21. We sent the i-130, i-485 and i-765 together. However, due to some missing paper, the i-765 was sent back and we were able to send it back and it was accepted on 09/21.
She could have applied for EAD based on F1 opt and would have been faster. However, we applied for EAD based on pending i-485. We were wondering if EAD based on pending i-485 is approved much earlier than the GC is or it takes a long time to get EAD based on this category?
Is it based on approval of i-130 or i-485?
Thanks for your answers.
