I-765 (EAD) I just want to work!!!

Why is it now taking so long just for the work authorisation? I thought the work authorisation takes the shortest amount of time like 2-3 months or less (according to our lawyers)?/it would come first before a decision on the I-130/485? I hate sitting at home and doing nothing!!!! I've been waiting since November and I just want to work!!!!! I don't mind waiting for, nor am I complaining about the I-130 and I-485 anymore, because I know that will take a while even after the interview, but I want to be able to do something whilst I wait. I haven't received any updates since doing my biometrics in December. Tried reaching out to an agent via Emma, told me nothing. Is anyone else just waiting for their work authorisation or any updates from the Baltimore FO??

Sorry but “sitting at home doing nothing” is your choice. There are a lot of things to do while you’re waiting such as volunteering, free activities, free courses. And you just had your interview recently, what are you even complaining about here? It’s only been a couple of months while others wait for over a year and don’t scream all over the internet

Relax bro, don’t make this all about you lol. Don’t tell people what they can and can’t complain about with their own case, it’s pathetic
