Is i-766 the same as i-765?
Applying for Form I-766 is the same application process as applying for Form I-765 because they are both the employment authorization document. Follow the steps below to apply for your official Form I-766 employment authorization document.
How long does it take for USCIS to approve work authorization?
It takes anywhere between 150 to 200 days to get a US I-765 work permit. Earlier the I-765 processing time was around 90. However, an increase in applications leading to backlogs has now caused a delay. An applicant now has to wait for 5 to 7 months as the usual I-765 processing time has gone up.
What is the difference between i-765 and i-766?
You can expect the completion of the EAD process within 60 to 90 days after you submit the requested evidence.
What is the I-765 form used for?
Having an Employment Authorization Document (Form I-766/EAD) is one way to prove that you are authorized to work in the United States for a specific time period. To request an EAD, you generally must file Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization.
