"USCIS has approved your application or petition, or request. USCIS will mail your proof of benefit or USCIS action to you."
Im so stoked!!! On to the waiting game of card production and reception. Hopefully all goes well and no delays like some of you guys are experiencing. Now to update that spreadsheet. Im an early May applicant, 05/04/2016, so I think USCIS is slowly progressing on their approvals. Good luck to all of you that are still waiting. Hopefully Im just the first of many approvals this week. Keep your hopes up guys!!!

Heres my timeline:
Expiration: 09/25/2016
App received: 05/04/2016
Bio received: 05/07/2016 scheduled for 05/26/2016.
Walk in: 05/16/2016
App Approval: 09/26/2016
EAD arrival: TBD

Like everyone, I am mentally and emotionally exhausted of waiting and dealing with such an imbecilic and incompetent government agency. There is no transparency, rampant inefficiency, and absolute lack of accountability.

I did some research last night and found that applicants of other types of EADs are also experiencing the same issue. Their jobs are also lost, and USCIS is doing nothing to fix the problem. No interim EADs for them, either. I don't get why this problem is not receiving more widespread attention.
