I have been waiting for 5 months now and still didn't get my EAD card yet. You can start or switch jobs after you get the EAD card. Assuming that you are already in legal standing in the US.

Same!!

I’m assuming you’re already in a job and in legal standing where documentation is concerned. Once you’re married and have started the process of adjusting your status you can find a new job.

Following. How long will EAD take? Read something about 5-7 months. Is this accurate?

Thanks so much!

Oh wow 3 months would be amazing!

I have been waiting for 9 months now…

Mine is either Californian or national benefits. It could be because I applied for the combo card, but then I left the country without getting AP. They need to RFE me which delays things. Online i saw is 7.5-12 months🤷‍♀️ anyways I don’t really need the EAD at the moment, will just wait for the green card. Lawyer told me they see green card wait time is 15mo-25mo but mostly 15mo
