By asking the question of when they will call you, I will assume that you have made an affirmative application for asylum and that you are not under removal proceedings at present. Normally an interview notice follows very quickly after the fingerprinting notice. You should obtain an interview notice within the next one – three months. An employment authorization document is given when an individual makes an application on form I-765 after the asylum application has been in existence for 150 days without being denied. Kindly note that periods of time which elapse due to you or your attorney's request for extension or delay will stop the running of the number of days.

The fingerprinting for the I-589 is only for the I-589. You will only be able to file for the work permit (EAD) after 150 days have passed from the filing of your I-589. You will need to prepare and file form I-765 (http://www.uscis.gov/i-765). Your first EAD is free, bt you will need to pay a fee of $380 for every EAD thereafter. Prepare and send the I-765 along with a copy of your I-589 receipt notice, 2 passport photos and a copy of an identification document (passport, national ID card, driver's license) to this address:
USCIS Phoenix Lockbox
For U.S. Postal Service (USPS) deliveries:
USCISP.O. Box 21281Phoenix, AZ 85036
For Express mail and courier deliveries:
USCISAttn: AOS1820 E. Skyharbor Circle S Suite 100Phoenix, AZ 85034
The work permit should then arrive in 30-45 days.
