Hi everyone,

I filed for AOS through my work 3 years ago, and the application is still pending. Earlier this year I filed another AOS based on my marriage, and had my interview on 6/21.

During the interview I was told my case looked legit but she needed to get my original work AOS transferred to the local office and compare them two to make sure there is no discrepency. She also said I will receive a letter asking me to withdraw the work AOS application, since I cannot have two of them. She then gave me a piece of paper saying if I don't hear back in 30 days I may check by doing an infopass.

Once I heard the 30 days line, I knew I was doomed! They NEVER get back to you on time, and I know if I walk in for infopass they will just say oh we are still reviewing it, and give me the run-around if I want a firm date.

If anyone has any suggestions please let me know... I don't really wanna go for an infopass because I just started a new job, and I don't want to drive so far and take 2, 3 hours off of work when I just started working. I'm debating if I should just contact the congressman. But what if I still don't get a concrete answer? Then where can I escalate this to next?

Thanks!

Current status: H1b and employer-sponsored AOS

Hi,

It's the normal process I truly understand how anxious you feel, but in my case it took 7 months after the interview to get an approval, it hard to say but you just need to be patience

Thank you Cristina. Do you mind telling me a bit more about your case? Who did you talk to to get the right push?
