is biometric appointment for h4 COS also adding to delays for h4 COS and EAD? or we can schedule an appointment as soon as COS is applied? someone told me it’s taking 2 years these days for h 4 ead approval 1 year for h4 cos another year wait time for biometric and few months for ead is that true? From what i read and understood it takes around 12 months for entire process including biometric

2 years? Wtf 😳 I thought H4 + EAD was taking around 10 months
That would suck!

exactly ...to be honest i am not sure if 2 years is correct that’s what somebody told me but i am not sure about this biometric process as well

Thanks for sharing this ... Keeping fingers crossed
