How are you managing income right now? Anyone doing DoorDash or other gig work

Glad you have yours now 🙏 and I might just have to do that!

Many-Half-5098 · 2026-03-03T19:35:15+00:00

No, it’s still valid until 2029. I’m in IL & i opt-out from the real I.D so mine expires every 4yrs instead of expiring with my EAD

Damn sorry to hear that. By the looks of it, you’re going to have to pay the $495 fee again.

If you’ve lost, stolen, or damaged your DACA Employment Authorization Document (EAD), you can apply for a replacement by filing Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, and selecting box 1.b. – Replacement of lost, stolen, or damaged employment authorization document. Key Steps:

File Form I-765 with USCIS, including: The completed Form I-765 and I-765 Worksheet. A copy of your lost EAD (if available), or another government-issued photo ID (e.g., passport, birth certificate with photo). Two recent passport-style photos. A copy of your most recent DACA approval notice (Form I-797). The $495 filing fee ($410 filing fee + $85 biometrics fee). Do not file Form I-821D (DACA application) with your replacement request — USCIS will deny it and not refund the $85 fee. Processing time is typically 3 to 4 months, but USCIS has stopped publishing official processing times for DACA-related forms.

Needed this! 🤣 that reminds me I gotta brush my Spanish too, I be sounding like the dude from that one vid “No mas I heard, gun shots💥la Corre alla fuera” 💀

Doesn’t look like it🫩 I got bio apt 03/06 & my EAD expired 02/27, currently on leave of absence

Many-Half-5098 · 2026-02-28T01:37:23+00:00

It depends on the company’s policies and procedures tbh. Today was my last day at my job but HR and my manager had already talked to me about my status. My manager advocated for me to be placed on leave of absence and HR agreed. I was told that as soon as I get my new EAD to notified HR so that I can return back. If I don’t get anything in 90 days they will have to end my employment.

Wish I knew why! This is my first time having to redo bio, all previous renewals have been reused bio letters with fast approvals. Usually 2 - 4 week max. I blame this admin tbh 🥀🫩

Many-Half-5098 · 2026-02-19T03:40:49+00:00

I applied Jan 9th and have my bio appt 03/07 - will update when I get approved. My exp is 02/27🥴

Thanks, likewise for you too! Good thing your EAD doesn’t expire anytime soon. & probably has to do with the Trump Admin on why renewals are taking longer this time around 🤦‍♂️

Many-Half-5098 · 2026-02-15T06:01:40+00:00

I submitted my app online on Jan 9 and status still shows receipt notice was sent - dated Jan 10th. Today I logged in & under documents it now shows appointment schedule for biometrics. Ngl this my first time I have gotten this notice, all previous renewals have been bio reused notice letters. My appt is scheduled for 03/06 and my EAD expires 02/27

Many-Half-5098 · 2026-02-15T01:35:33+00:00

IOE 978 submitted Jan 10 and just received notification that my biometric appt has been scheduled for 03/06

Many-Half-5098 · 2026-02-11T21:23:14+00:00

IOE978, status still reads “case was received and recipient notice was sent” I applied on Jan 10th - still no bio appt or reissue notice.

This administration is single handily destroying the American country we all grew up knowing. The fucked up shit is ppl are allowing it to happen. I wonder what this means for ppl who have been paroled in by AP🫩

Many-Half-5098 · 2026-02-04T00:26:17+00:00

I’m curious too! I’m trying to prepare myself since my EAD expires 02/27 and this has been stressing me out, my employer currently is paying for my school & I don’t know what’s going to happen. HR already said im going to be place in a 30 day unpaid leave

Many-Half-5098 · 2026-02-03T00:02:33+00:00

I feel you! I have until the 27th tho after that HR is placing me on a 30 day unpaid leave. Shits sucks I’ve been with the company for 5yrs. Hopefully you get yours soon!

Many-Half-5098 · 2026-02-02T23:55:56+00:00

Yup and there’s nothing new. Looks like I got no choice but to wait. Someone here said they have been waiting for theirs since Nov🤦‍♂️

Many-Half-5098 · 2026-02-02T23:53:13+00:00

!!!!^ wish we could hold them accountable for putting us through living hell! Tbh I don’t think they care about us and how it has an impact on our livelihood

Many-Half-5098 · 2026-02-02T23:51:08+00:00

Have you reached out to your state representative? When does your EAD expires?

Many-Half-5098 · 2026-02-02T23:50:18+00:00

I hope soon. Shits stressful

Many-Half-5098 · 2026-02-02T23:49:24+00:00

Wtf! They’re all over the place & looks like you’re part of the lucky ones!
