Marriage Based Green Card

Question:

I live in Boston area and would like to know how much time does it takes to get an EAD card after applying for adjustment of status (I-130, I-485, I-765, I-864, G-325A). I am planning to apply all the documents simultaneously.

Answer:

if you don't get it in 90 days, you can go to the local office to get an interim EAD.

I'm wondering the same thing - I'll be applying by the beginning of June in Boston - so let me know if you get any responses!

please look at my website at http://www.article16.org/ for an overview of the issues.

the bad news: it sucks.

the good news: you are not alone. there is a lot of people in the same situation.

to answer your question: it takes anywhere from 5 - 6 years.

thing - I'll be applying by the beginning of June in Boston - so let me know if you get any responses!

As the EADs are now sent to MSC/NBC for processing, the timeline for Boston is irrelevant. It is the timeline for the MSC/NBC that is critical to your wait.

Note the one thing that has not changed is that on the 91st day after receipt of petition, if your EAD is not in your hand, you may go to the local district office and demand an interim EAD.

Expect to wait about 90 days to receive the EAD card from NBC/MSC. If you have not received your card within the 90 day timeframe you can go to the local office in Boston to pick up your interim card.
