Filed I485 on 08/15/2013 Nebraska Service Center
FP walk in 09/27/2013
I filed for an EAD with this and got an RFE for picture ID on 10/29/13 and I responded and I have received nothing from them. I am probably approaching 100 days on EAD application.
I have seen people with later dates getting greened. This process is excruciatingly painful.
After responding back to RFE, USCIS does not generally contact the applicant unless they need more documents. The best way is to sign up for notification/alert on any updates. The typical processing time for I-485 is currently 4 months (this does not include RFE). You can try calling USCIS but they would say the same thing (about current processing time).
I called USCIS they said it takes 60 days to process RFE materials I sent and then to make a decision. I still do not have an EAD 103 days later. The website shows the same information they told me. I was hoping to get EAD card at least. Normal processing time for those is 3 months.
I got greened on 11/27/2013 am so happy journey is over!
Congrats on the approval. There was another person whose EAD was approved after his GC was approved. You may get another email about EAD/AP approval (if you have signed up for notification).
