AOS FILERS - March 2008

[unforgettable fire 2]

I went to interview to Disney. applied for position called -telephone operator-sales agent... when they offered me $8 per hour -minus taxes I thought - it is ok.. i need to start from something while I am applying for the best jobs... but after interview she said that I am not proper one I thought I will fall down on the floor... master degree, certification of a military interpreter from school in London, credentials from British Government and this... ha.... oh well.. I guess i need to wait for my green card and go to work with Army as my qualification is military interpreter, and anyway they invited me... but i am ok, and still applying for different jobs...

Don't you worry Elmira, about the job at Disney I'm pretty sure you were over-qualified and that was the reason they didn't hire you. But things will be ok I have experienced the same problem when applying for some jobs and got the same response. I also have a Masters degree from London and excellent credentials.

The search goes on... Don't give up and best of luck to you!

Yay! Lot's of good news here! Congrats to you all who got approvals and EAD cards. I believe I'll have good news to share still this week. I checked my account and my AOS was touched today. That's exciting!

Done with my Biometrics appointment. Went at the El Monte Center around 12 PM (my appointment was set at 1 PM) and not much people though. Not much hassle and was asked to fill out a form upon entering and was given a number. Process was pretty straightforward and was out there in about 20 to 30 mins.

Anyways, so what's next in the process?

Thanks!

Congrats on having the Biometrics completed.

The next step in the ladder is "wait, wait and wait"... If everything goes well you shall be getting the EAD and AP (if you applied for the latter). You can get a RFE at any time in the process. You can also get transferred or called to go to an interview... Just take it easy because this process is long and tedious. However i have found this forum very helpful and seeing how others are doing it does give one hope and encouragement.

All the best and good luck in your journey!

Just checked the mailbox and finally got my EAD card! :dance: I am so happy and tomorrow we'll be going to get my state ID and go to SSA to get my name change to my married name. So, excited to see all the good things coming! Being positive is indeed great! Just posted a while back that the EAD card might be waiting for me in the mailbox and it was really there. How wonderful!

I feel just like you and thought I was the only one of the March filers who hadn't gotten anything. I'm really very happy for everyone, but it's getting depressing, too...seeing so many who filed after me already approved or at least getting emails and touches. I'm trying to remain positive, but it's getting harder and harder

Thank you so much for the warm congratulations. Anyway, just got my AP in the mail today. I already went to get my SSN ID change to my married name with no problem and also applied for my state ID. Now, I just have to wait for all of it to come in the mail the next few weeks. Lastly. congratulations to you all who got their EADs and APs and all. Good luck to us all!

Don´t worry...I checked the statistics and there is still a lot of February filers who didn´t get anything and there isn´t too many March filers who got something compared to the number of people who still didn´t get anything Our time will come too Don´t panic
