Pakistani Green card holder with canadian spouse adjusting status, taking unusually long?

I-130 & I-485 (Family/Adjustment of status)

will keep it short:

I'm green card holder, pakistani national

my wife is canadian citizen who's adjusting status to green card.

I haven't been in the loop exactly a lot and idk if some things/rules/timelines have shifted but I was always told by others that EAD(and SSN) comes within a month of biometrics but its been nearly 6months since the last update. I'm confused why's it taking so long.

I've also applied for her travel permit but I know that takes some time

please advise thank you!
