Immigration Q&A

Your Question
Hello guys, I submitted my EAD application 1 month ago online after reaching 150 days. However, I received the receipt notice a week after applying, but so far I still haven't received the card. I'm sincerely starting to be discouraged. It's hard to stay like this without working.

It is understandable to feel discouraged, but delays in EAD processing are common. After submitting Form I-765 based on a pending asylum application (category C08), USCIS typically takes 1 to 6 months to process work permits. Since you received your receipt notice, your case is in progress. You can check your case status on the USCIS website using the receipt number. If your case exceeds normal processing times, consider submitting an inquiry or requesting expedited processing if you have financial hardship. Stay patient, and keep monitoring your case for updates.
