Hi msdynamite,

I can see that we are using the same local office and this is probably the way they will treat all our cases. They are to slow. What is your timeline? Which month did you file and When did you had your biometrics?

Hi I filed September 8, biometrics on October 8 and EAD approved on November 17, but only because I got my congresswoman involved. Click on my timeline to see more detaile!

It all seems very slow to me since a lot of people already got their interview that filed around the same time. But there's nothing else to do than wait. I'm happy that I can work and drive at least. Of course I'd be happy to have this done...but unfortunately there's nothing I can do about it.

Good luck to all the upcoming interviews!!! Happy for you guys!!

Thanks so much everybody.

We got approved!!

After waiting for more than 2 hours in a freezing waiting room the IO called our number.

He was the nicest man, professional and friendly.

Our interview last less than 10 minutes. He makes us swear.. Then asked for documentation my husband gave him his DL and I gave him my EAD.

He asked if we still live in the same address... If the signature from 1 document was from my husband... Asked if I had a job I said no, I just got my SSC a week ago and I still need to learn to drive.. And my husband said that's the next step and they both laughed. Then asked about my husband's job and talked for a little bit about it and random experiences. Asked me what date we got married. And if I went to honey moon I said not my husband said we are still saving money for the real thing, ceremony and honey moon and then the IO started talking about his honey moon with his wife lol.

He asked for the most recent bank statement my I-94 and if I had pictures, he looked at all the pictures ( I had aroun 90 ) and asked where a couple of pictures where and said ok I will approve you 2 right now.. Briefly mentioned about ROC and in 3 years I can apply for citizenship, said God bless you and joked about my folder being organized and after that I dropped the folder and we have to pick up the documents Hahahah

We were just getting out the elevator when my husband got 2 text messages from uscis saying the card is in production :) so happy!!

There was a point I was so nervous while waiting and it was sooooo easy, he didn't look at any other of my documents or asked about anything else not even the real ones of anything. I had a good folder with post-its and what not he saw I was ready

Yes we did have all originals and copies. He just didn't ask for anything and joked about my folder and my husband said yeah she is the organizer. I was kind of confused thinking aren't we supposed to bring this?? Hahah

It was so fast my husband says he had his mind made up before seeing us. He paid attention to the pictures and was making comments while seeing them and said he remembered some from when we sent our forms.

Thank you and good luck next week!!! it will be good :)

We finished yesterday printing some copies and fixing everything, did mostly last couple days

My I-485 was approved!!

Here is my experience.

Our interview time was 2.15 but we got there 40minute earlier. Everyone was super nice and polite. We hang out in the building till 1.40pm and went in to submit our appointment letter.

We were called in by a nice friendly Asian young man. He ask are you the last appointment for the day with a big smile.. We replied YES. I guess he was tired for the day and just want to go home. He smiled.

He ask if there's anything we want to add and we gave him everything we had to add.

He ask for ID's and did an oat.

Question 1. How do you meet.

Where did you buy your ring?

He ask who are in the pictures and ask me to give him 10 pictures.

He was basically taking to my wife about cameras because my wife is a photographer and the IO has different cameras too.. I was just quiet during there conversation .. He printed my approval letter and explain how it work.

My online status change after an hour to card in production.

Good luck to everyone who's waiting to go through this process.

Briefly mentioned about ROC and in 3 years I can apply for citizenship, said God bless you and joked about my folder being organized and after that I dropped the folder and we have to pick up the documents Hahahah

We were just getting out the elevator when my husband got 2 text messages from uscis saying the card is in production :) so happy!!

There was a point I was so nervous while waiting and it was sooooo easy, he didn't look at any other of my documents or asked about anything else not even the real ones of anything. I had a good folder with post-its and what not he saw I was ready

Congrats!!!! Very happy for you! It must be such a relief! Glad it went well :dancing: Enjoy your GC!!

Just got my GC & Resident Card in the mail,,, next be heading to DMV for follow up of my DL... such a blessed day today....!! to all who's still processing AOS just keep praying & don't lose hope. God has His own perfect timing.. be praying for all you. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Congrats!! Good luck with your DL! :)

My I-485 was approved!!

Here is my experience.

Our interview time was 2.15 but we got there 40minute earlier. Everyone was super nice and polite. We hang out in the building till 1.40pm and went in to submit our appointment letter.

We were called in by a nice friendly Asian young man. He ask are you the last appointment for the day with a big smile.. We replied YES. I guess he was tired for the day and just want to go home. He smiled.

He ask if there's anything we want to add and we gave him everything we had to add.

He ask for ID's and did an oat.

Question 1. How do you meet.

Where did you buy your ring?

He ask who are in the pictures and ask me to give him 10 pictures.

He was basically taking to my wife about cameras because my wife is a photographer and the IO has different cameras too.. I was just quiet during there conversation .. He printed my approval letter and explain how it work.

My online status change after an hour to card in production.

Good luck to everyone who's waiting to go through this process.
