Hi everyone! Sharing my timeline and looking for others with a similar case, especially those who filed H-1B + H-4 + H-4 EAD together by paper under Premium Processing.

Timeline:

• July 22: Filed H-1B amendment + H-4 + H-4 EAD together as a paper bundle.
• July 23: USCIS received all three applications. H-1B received an IOE receipt number, while H-4 and H-4 EAD received SRC receipt numbers.
• July 24: H-4 and H-4 EAD cases were transferred to another jurisdiction.
• August 10: H-1B amendment and H-4 were both approved.
• August 10: Received the biometrics appointment notice for August 18 for the H-4 EAD.
• August 11: I was able to reschedule the biometrics appointment to August 11 because I didn't want to wait an additional week for biometrics.
• August 11: Biometrics completed.
• H-4 EAD: Still pending.

For those who had a similar H-1B + H-4 + H-4 EAD bundled filing with Premium Processing, especially where the H-4 was approved first and biometrics were completed afterward:

How long did it take for your H-4 EAD to be approved after biometrics?
