Hi everyone!

 

My husband and I are trying to make travel plans for the summer with a pending application. I submitted my documents February 14th. I have received the notices and now have an upcoming biometrics appointment. Everything seems to be going "according to plan". I hope to receive my AP/EAD combo card in May or June at the latest. Based on previous experiences, what are the chances that my interview will be scheduled for July or August? It seems highly unlikely, but I'm so worried about making travel plans (gone for July and some of August) and then receiving a notice about an interview appointment, cutting our trip short. Would love to hear any input and thoughts.

No one can tell you it really depends on a lot.

 

Are you a K-1 you might not get an interview.

 

You other thread about the same: 

 

No, I'm adjusting from F-1. The other thread isn't entirely the same, includes questions about USC requirements for traveling to Europe. But thanks anyways.

Then you will have an interview. Try and look at the processing time for your local office.

Looking at other people from Chicago who are applying for AOS, adjusting from "Other" (which on this site means non-K1/CR1), many of them had their interviews in about 3-5 months from NOA1.  You could take a look at their timelines and figure out if any are also F-1 and try to estimate what to expect.  But of course, it's all just an educated guess!

 

To see timelines, click on Immigration Timelines in the blue menu bar at the top of the page, then click AOS, and then use the filters at the bottom of the chart to adjust for local office and visa type.  Good luck!

Spoiler

12/18/2015- NOA 1

1/29/2016- NOA 2

2/18/2016- Letter from NVC saying they're forwarding to Guangzhou

3/4/2016- Received P3, returned it about a week later

3/22/2016- P4 email

5/12/16- Interview. Approved!

5/16/16- After a few days saying administrative processing, CEAC now says issued!

Additional snafu: my fiancé came over on his visa, but just a month later (and the day before we were going to get married) he had an emergency that necessitated him returning to China.  I contacted the Guangzhou consulate via their email system, provided the requested documents/proof, and he was granted a second interview for "reissuance."  He had to re-do the medical, redo the interview (bringing yet another copy of all of the things he had to bring the first time) and we were approved again!  He received what looked like a new visa in his passport, but the original 90 day countdown for marriage was still ticking.  He came back to the US and we got married right away!

8/22/16- Married!

 

AOS

 

 


9/30/16- Filed for AOS, EA, AP

12/13/16- EA and AP approved!

no news... case status on website still says "fingerprint fee received..."

4/11/17- submitted online service request for case out of normal processing time (over 6 months)

5/2/17- USCIS website updated to "My card is being produced!"

5/10/17- Green Card received

I calculated an interview time slot for myself May - August.

Your will most likely be June - September.

 

I wouldn't travel if I were you. It's such a high chance you will miss your interview. They only give you a 3-4 week-notice for an interview.

 

If you must travel, ask someone to check your mail and then they will have to send a reschedule letter back to USCIS (there is a check box on the interview letter that asks to reschedule) and USCIS will reschedule but people say it takes another 3-5 months.

 

I hope you will get your interview early so you get to travel! That would be awesome. :dancing:
