Hello all,

I haven,t been here for the longest time. Kids started school, I started to work. Been so busy. Hope everyone is well.

I had my interview it was fast, no question whatsoever about my marriage, only question why did I leave the country 7 years ago and abandoned my green card!?!

Anyway she approuved my marriage, no doubt about that but said that they just had a training and that they are not suppose to give a green card a second time. So she went to check with her supervisor, made me wait for 5 long minutes and then said she will approuved the marriage but the rest was out of her hand. Up to her she would give it to me again but as they have some discretion about that she needs to have a full approval on top of her. But she said it should be fine but she coudn't risk to tell me it was ok 100%. What to think about that?

Online status say I 130 approuved but I 485 testing and interview..........

Oh Trefle, I hope they make a decision soon on your case....:)

This is usually what happens when they need to do additional checking to be able to confirm you. The I-130 (not I-30) was approved because that has nothing to do with the GC itself, it just means the petitioner is approved for sponsoring you.

The I-485 will remain in testing and review until they are done reviewing your case. The interview isn't necessarily the last step. Always keep that in mind.

yeah it just weird that he handed me that paper with the date of Sept 10 approval for adjustment of status....

..if he need more docs/evidence at least he should've send me RFE.. talked to the lawyer said dont worry coz IO said were approved and maybe my name check is not done yet and wait 2mos or make info pass...well, whatever cant do anything right now but back to waiting game. :crying:

sometimes I wish IO didn't give us approval on the spot and the piece of paper is useless if he just hang me like this without knowing the reason :crying:

Your case is not that serious so please don't waste any money on a lawyer just yet. Like I said keep calling USCIS. I know that they make a note everytime we called but at least that will force them to do or tell you something with the case. You can also do an infopass at another office, not just the one you had your interview at...

You can go to any office. You need information and any IO can get info on your case so if there's an office close by, I would suggest going.
