mostly vawa they reuse the biometric fingerprint.

exactly my thoughts as the case updated to fingerprint print relating as been applied but seing the notice for appointment again make me feel somehow

you will have to attend the biometrics appointment, 3 years ago is way too long it won’t be valid.

I think I had to do another biometrics and I was concerned that I already did one. However I went, and I am glad I did. Please go to your appointment. I can't remember the explanation they gave me when I did it the second time

Thank you all

when did you file the c09 ead application?

july 30, 2026

I have been waiting for EAD - c09 since May 28th 2025. Unbeliveable.

I don't think they are sending any of the work permits to anybody until the end of the year. process is slowed down crazy.

@sku skit same to me, I have Biometric on 17th this month for EAD , and filed since March 21st 2025

@Mark Douglas are you VAWA?

@sku skit oh okay, I filed mine May 7, 2026 & fingerprints were applied on May 22 from 2025 … they say we can expect approval in 3-5 months so expect good things soon

@S c yeap

@sku skit what day is the new biometrics appointment scheduled for?

@Jesus baby 08/26.it Wednesday

@sku skit

@Jesus baby hi

@sku skit Heyy, what updates have you received after you did the biometrics? have they approved your EAD?

@Jesus baby I got approved this last Friday. my lawyer told me yesterday. there is no update when I check online but the lawyer got approval notice already. even this app did not show the approval

@sku skit oh wow, that’s strange congratulations to you 🎊

card got delivered just now, what's update on yours?

@sku skit still no update yet for me, I did my biometrics 08/20 and even the extension expires soon, it’s going to be 540 days soon since the initial EAD expired…. congratulations to you though I’m happy for you, hopefully I hear some good news soon as well.

@sku skit are you by any chance from one of the banned countries then?

yes @Jesus baby I'm from Nigeria.

@sku skit I’m from Nigeria as well. so that means they have truly started processing the applications from banned countries then… when was your Vawa filed though?

yes @Jesus baby march 2024. this is my first work permit from Vawa, the previous EAD was from the fail marriage

@sku skit oh I see, okay goodluck with everything

you too @Jesus baby
