Hi, fellow VJers

Anyone know the wait time to have a greencard interview? My husband has his biometrics taken a few weeks ago in Orange County, California. thanks

Wife's biometrics was 11/16/12. Her EAD/AP card arrived in the mail 1/14/13 and we had our AOS interview 1/15/13 in Santa Ana, Ca., approved and GC received 1/25/13. So our interview was 2 moths after her biometrics.

You may or may not be scheduled for an interview. If you have one, I suggest that you take a look at the VJ members' timelines (adjusting from a K-1 like you) who live in the same area as you, and so who were in the proximity of the Santa Ana USCIS office: http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/aoslist.php?vtype=1&op8=Santa+Ana+CA&xfr=&op1=&op2=&op3=&op4=1&op5=5%2C6%2C8%2C9%2C10%2C11&cfl=

It seems that they all got an interview, in about 2-4 months after their NOA.

If you don't have an interview, the wait will be much longer.

I applied in July 25th, 2012, my biometrics were in August 23th, in Buena Park, California. and received my EAD card in September ... Since then I am waiting for an approval or something ...

I hope you're one of the lucky ones to be approved in a few months :)

Yup, our AOS filing is going on 4th months and it's still at NBC. By this time, we're accepting the fact that our AOS won't have interview.
