Recently I have been to Baltimore District Office to collect my interim EAD, I was told that if INS Processing Center(Vermont) requested some additional documentation, that requested documentation should be sent to Vermont(that information should be updated in INS database), then only they can issue interim EAD. They are taking 30 days to issue Interim EAD.

I walked in to the Detroit USCIS Center on Monday Sept 9th 2003 at 11:30pm. They gave me the waiting number & gave me an application form for Employment Authorization. At around 3:00 pm the duty officer wanted receipt notices (over 90-day proof), the original I-765 application, I-94 & driving licence (proof of picture ID). She asked me to get photo copies of each of these documents, which I got it immediately for her. After an hour someone called my name and took my picture and provided the card good for 6 months.

Applied for INFOPASS appointment on completion of 90 days.



Went Federal plaza @12pm for a 1pm appointment, promptly admitted.



Directed to third floor no one on line, given a number and I765 to fill up and asked to go to 9th floor.



When I got off the elevator, and entered the room my number was called ( that fast, fortunately I took an I 765 form all filled up, or else I wouldn't have time to even complete it!!!)



1.30 hours wait for processing and photos/finger print etc.

* filed for EAD 3rd Renewal with RD June 28th at TSC but no response till today.



* went to San Jose USCIS office on Sep 27th for IEAD as I stay in Bay Area.



* Though had an appointment, it is about Hour and half before i was called to the window.



*Approved EAD for 8 months with no questions asked by just looking at EAD recipt notice & passport and taking a pre-filled EAD Application, copy of I-140 approval notice and I-485 notice.
