I-765 Approval (filed concurrently with I-130 and I-485) - IOE0929

Just wanted to give a timeline. I am a US citizen and my husband and I filed his I-130, I-485, and I-765 concurrently on 11/4/24.

I-765 was approved today (1/28/25). Still pending I-130 and I-485 but biometrics ha/ been completed for both. Note: I-765 was initially rejected due to missing I-485 receipt (even though we filed concurrently). It was resent with I-485 receipt on 12/21/24.

Such a blessing since my husband’s current work authorization expires next week (2/3/25) and we were concerned about a possible lapse in employment. He was initially an F-1 student on post-OPT. I will update when I-485 and I-130 are approved!
