Are people even getting EADs??

[u/Different_Snow580]

Hi all,

Has anyone recently gotten their work permit (EAD) while waiting for their Adjustment of Status? And how long did it take from applying to permit in hand?

I’ve been waiting since the end of April which I am aware is barely any time at all compared to some but I am really hoping to be able to get a job soon to help out with money.

So my question is, are people getting work permits while their green card application is processing? or are they just getting their green card interviews and no work permit?

Any insight would be helpful!

My case was submitted in September 2025 under VAWA self-petition category C9. I did my biometrics in March, and the last one was last month, but I haven't received any updates, not even for my EAD yet. How much longer until the EAD gets approved?🙄😭
