Help for my little brother guys??

My brother got his EAD approved on the 7th and he just got it in the mail today, but
I-821D its still on initial review can he go get his ssn and DL with that still on initial review, or what should he do??? This is all initial DACA ofcourse , thanks for any advices ☺

They wouldn't give him his EAD without DACA approval which means the initial review you're seeing is a glitch in the system. He can certainly apply for an SSN and get his driver's license if he has his EAD card in hand.

Happened before, where I-765 is approved but I-821D sits in initial review.
You cannot have a work permit without having approved DACA. Unless he requires the notice for his driver's license (as some states do) the EAD alone is enough to get a social security number and license.

You're all set. That 821D should be getting approved in a day or two.

Ditto what everyone else said. You can't have one without the other . Congrats!

you can say he is lucky and didnt have to go through the pain most of us did

If you don't mind me asking....when did your brother apply?

Thank you all for your responces !!!! Sure do feel much more confident now

in reply to Diplok - dont mind at all, he applied on may 27 of this year took us a whole lot of time to be able to gather all his missing proofs and they could send his application!! but its done
