Interim EAD Issuance at Jacksonville, FL

State
Florida

My prossessing of the EAD took more than the 90 days (Big Surprise) so I booked an appointment through Infopass for 7:30 this morning. I arrived at 7:15 and walked right in. Thanks to the notes on this site I already had a I-765 filled out and I was finished the checkup in 12 minutes. Most of that time was spent watching the agent pulling things up and printing them. Then he had to photocopy my Driver's License. He told me that another person actually made the cards and he didn't start doing that until 11:00 and gave me a pass to get back in.

Applied for EAD renewal MAY 2004

State
NY

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.

iEAD Experience at NYC

I had a 11 AM appointment (ND-4/6/2004 at VSC) via infopass but showed up at 10 AM just in case.

1. The guard at the building entrance asked me to enter at the beginning of the Q since I had an infopass appointment.
2. In room 310, I stood in the line just like everyone else. Got a ticket at 10:30 and headed to room 900 on the 9th floor.
3. My number was called at 11 AM and I handed my infopass appointment sheet and filled out 765 form. The person at the counter asked me to wait for the number to be called again.

Made an appointment with Tampa USCIS

State
FL

I applied for an EAD in April 2004 along with an I-485 etc. The EAD was applied for through e-file.

I heard nothing for 90 days, then made an appointment with Tampa USCIS.

I arrived and was told that as I e-filed the EAD application before I received my I-485 notice of action (but after I sent the I-485 pack) that my EAD COULD be denied. I was told that they couldn't issue an interim EAD and that I'd need to apply again. She then laughed at me and I was asked to leave for no reason.
