OMG OMG OMG I JUST GOT APROVED TODAY!!!

Sorry for the caps I'm just sooo happy today. My EAD expires yesterday but took a leave of absence this week because of it. I'm going to try and enjoy my weeks and take this LOA as a vacation. Hopefully you all guys get approve ASAP.

Application received 7/6/16
Bios 7/28/16
October 26, 2016, we began producing your new card for your Form I-765
Expire 10/28/16

Edit: Yesterday I was bummed out because everyone around my submission date were getting approved, but I had faith it was going to be approved soon.

When I managed to get through to a T2 rep last week he said something interesting about the receipt date and zip code being "the magic formula". I dunno what the hell he meant with that and when I asked he didn't give me an answer. Perhaps what he said was of substance and your region plays a role on how fast/slow an application is reviewed, along with receipt date, expiration, and lady luck. For example, I'm sure southern Cali (where I'm from) has a shit ton of applicants compared to Montana; thus an applicant from southern Cali would have to wait longer. Or maybe he was just talking out of his ass and I'm over-thinking this as a symptom of progressively losing my marbles as this prolonged anxiety continues with each day....

Congrats!!!

Hey guys got another update. My case tracker just started showing the tracking number. The card was picked up today at 3:25pm. Says it should arrive Saturday 10/29. So in summary:

Received App: 5/11
Biometrics: 5/31

where did you see the tracking #

Case tracker APP will let you know once it updates.

It seems for some of us, it doesn't show the tracking number at all. At least for me, the case tracker still shows my I-765 as approved and my card has been produced since October 24th. I've even tried searching for it by signing up for myusps and there's no packages to be delivered to me. I'm afraid they just produced it and haven't sent it out. Still hoping I can get it by early next week.

I'm hiring a lawyer for $1000 to help me with my case. Supposedly the law firm has a good relationship with USCIS.
Almost two weeks and still expired.

Received a tracking number and my EAD should be delivered Monday.
