over 300 days I485 still pending
filed NIW with priority date Nov 2020， then EB1b May 2024 which got approved May 2024, filed I485 June 2024, biometric Sept 4 2024, then no change at all for the last 8 months.
will lose the job July 31, realized I did not file I765 to apply EAD, so I submitted EAD last Friday, waiting for the receipt. it took 3 months for me to get I485 receipt last year ... don't know how long it will take for my EAD application. freak out and devastated, congressman, senator neither are helpful. talked with Emma 10-20 times, not helpful...
I just don't know why it took so long for my case.

don’t worry you’ll get an EAD in 3 months because they’ll use your existed biometrics, happened to me.. I’m on 250 days too, idk what they doing there, feels like u can’t do anything before that average time 12.9 months happens

yesterday I repeatedly tried EMMA 5 times and finally got a live agent who is willing to send a request to TIER2 agent, the Tier2 agent will email or call me for questions and request documents for expedite, my attorney said it will probably happen next week but they will not likely expedite 485, but you could expedite EAD.

I spoke to tier 2 agent - they will not expedite 485 but possibly can help with EAD.

@D King - how to speak to tier2 officer, what reason is good enough?
sha ShaApr 25, 2025
@D King that's my attorney said. However ， I only submit my 765 a week ago and I am not confident in receiving a receipt soon. without receipt number, they will not expedite EAD. all
