The I485 is in the California processing center and the other authorizations, they have not proceeded to go any further with processing it seems.

I am wondering which will they approve first is I guess anyone's guess, but i wish they would approve they EAD card first, but it looks like they will approve the I485 first, anyone have any idea's ?

 

thanks

It'd be nice if they simply approved the I-485, and didn't worry about the others, but truth is you need the AP and EAD while waiting for the green card.

 

The EAD and AP are usually processed by the NBC in Missouri, while the I-485 can be forwarded either to California or to a local service center for processing

 

California is usually good. If it goes to a local service center, she may be called in for an interview.

 

The next thing that happens is that you get called in for biometrics.

They already took biometrics on Dec 20th, just wondering if all security cks will be done and how long? Thanks again.

3 months to 2 years or longer. We're past 2 years.

 

But the EAD and AP should come within the 90 days.

You could just prepare for the worst and expect to file multiple

EADs & APs over the course of the next two years or so.

 

But the odds are that you are in the 90% that will get your two year GC in a timely manner.
