After biometrics, the next update could be fingerprints applied, EAD approval, AP approval, RFE, transfer, interview, or simply no update for a while. Biometrics does not guarantee EAD approval within a set number of days. For I-485 approval, your priority date, visa availability, medical, background checks, and officer review all matter. For EAD, some people see movement in weeks, but others wait months.
If you have any other questions, feel free to ask them in our next Lawfully office hours session!
