EAD and AP timeline

[izus]

figures...

so the folks that filed after the change is getting the better deal, unless ofcourse they get their GC when they are suppose to get it

Actually not so, for most AOS takes less than 1 year but rarely more than 2.

 

We filed for AOS this past may, and got away with the $295 fee for AOS only, but if was going to go long, then $295+$340 is still less than $1010.

 

AOS I-485 fee used to be $325+$70 for fingerprints is $395.

 

But $395 AOS fee + $170 for AP + $180 for EAD, and then $340 for EAD renewal comes to $1085 at the one year point. And then up from there the longer USCIS takes.

 

There are plenty of us in that boat.

I knew it ended in 95, yep $395 paid.

we'll have paid the 395 for the initial AOS filing then 180 for her first EAD and 340 for her second and another 340 for her first AP.

thats 1255.

the governement owes me 245.00

without sounding like an a$$, i am somewhat relieved to hear this kind of responses from folks who applied before the rate change. at first i was shocked by how much the government is now charging for AOS. it doesn't sound too bad now.

 

as someone else pointed out, i guess our love toward SOs worth much much more than whatever we are paying to get them here to be with us. :-)
