How is it possible to get EAD by June?

I thought you need atleast a year or so to get EAD. Correct me if I am wrong.

[schaumburg]

Yes. Received receipt dated Feb 28.

[eb3to2b2]

schaumburg,

Did you get any update on your case, approved or not? I was filed my I140 premium on Feb 23, they received it on Feb 24th, received the receipt notice on Mar 5th, even today it self my case status is showing as initial review.

Thanks.

Hi eb3to2b2,

Then your case has been pending more than 15 days right? If this is premium, does it mean you're getting the $1000 fee back?

Thanks,

[eb3to2b2]

matlab,

Yes it's more than 15 days, don't know how to deal with it, I have to check with my lawyer.

[Riya_Pal]

Hi alice_csl

eb3to2b2, I checked my status online today and it says approved on mar 11.

hi riya pal,

to answer your question, errr..i just applied, i mean, the attorney applied. the premium processing is a hoax and $$ maker for attorneys and government.. even if u knw 140 approval in 5 days, it means nothing, one still has to wait for at least 6 month for 485 approval, and if you are like me where h1b expires in june, you can also apply for EAD..that i think takes 3 months or so these days..hopefully less. so i chose not to have premium..by the time all the 485 and EAD gets in, i should be fine..thats if everything goes as plan.. your attorney should be able to advise you in this matter. ps: there is another form>> i forgot waht it is called, it is for if you want to travel outside the state while you are under this situation, but i do not plan to travel until i get everything, so that saves me $500.
