This is what the officer was talking about. These are indeed the new rules all of a sudden. What an annoyance!!

I would have been in the first category, and my interview was at 1 year and one month, so it would not have been valid either!

 

It was apparently updated right after I had my interview, as it was updated on: October 16, 2018.

From what I read now, they got rid of the rule and the medical expires within a year...Do you have your sources? Wish I had known before hand.

The thing is my interview was after a year, is it what you mean? It was almost 1year and 3months...

Look at the tab "updates" and you will notice they actually refer back to what I posted with an update in October.

I was also able to get in under the prior rule.

Ok so we had our AOS interview today (SLC-Utah) and I honestly don’t know how to feel about it. 

Arrived about twenty minutes before our interview was scheduled and waited to be called, about 5 minutes after our scheduled time we were called in for our interview and escorted to the room. 

Out interviewer introduced himself and asked if we had a lawyer, we didn’t; he then asked us to raise our right hands and swear under oath that what we said was true, and took my fingerprints and p

First thing he said was we had shots ourselves in the foot two times - not a promising start, he then spent 5/10 minutes talking about intent - we married Oct 2016, I went back home to the UK and came back to the USA in June 2017 for 10 days - as it happens I didn’t go back as my husband asked me to stay and do AOS.  

Anyhow after explaining that people used to be deported for that kind of thing he said something like, we can work with that. He then asked me a few questions from our I-485 he confirmed the first line of our address with my husband, asked me my phone number and then asked me to confirm the zip code the rest was just the yes no questions asked in the paperwork, he stamped a few pages and asked me if I had a medical, and I handed that to him and he added it to the file and then asked me to sign the AOS document.  

He then said, the second time you shot yourself in the foot was because, originally we had started the CR1 visa and that he wouldn’t be able to sign off the paperwork today as he needed the I-130 to complete the paperwork which was requested from the NVC in October 2017 and November of 2018

he went on to explain that it had to be requested three times before it could be considered lost and our options were

A, it turned up - NVC has it recorded as being sent. 

B, it is reported as lost. 

C, we would be asked to come back to

fill out another I-130, our original receipt number and approval would be attached to this. 

 

He then asked if we had any other documents we wanted to add to the file that proved co habitation - we provided up to date utility bills, membership of clubs together, medical cards and life insurance documents. 

We had a massive file with cards and photos but he didn’t ask to see them. 

He asked us for our ID’s to check both had the same address on them and said he couldn’t see any reason to deny us but he couldn’t approve us because of the missing paperwork. 

He advised us to wait 8 weeks but essentially our part was complete and we could do nothing at this point as we are waiting for the I-130 to arrive to be attached to our file and if we hadn’t heard anything or I hadn’t received my green card to make an appointment to check the status. 

So all in all not a bad interview but I have no idea what’s going on and it’s back to the waiting game.

I see...however, that seems admisibility of the medical in general... what I posted was specifically for K-1 visas

Help please: Can I change employers when my GC-EAD is pending?

why not? Just bring the info with you if you are not certain. I have no idea why this would not be possible. At the moment of filling out the application, the info was correct, so it is not like you lied. Just let them know at the interview. I doubt they will even update the info.

I think the main issue would be is your new employer willing to take your word that you are allowed to work? Can they verify you? 

The DMV could not confirm my 180 days extension, so I could not get a new license...I don't know about employers...

I think they will get to you soon.  I'm in a Facebook group for AOS filers in Texas and someone in there posted yesterday that she had just got notified online that her EAD was finally renewed and I think she said her submitted date was mid- May.

Hi! I've been very quiet here. I just wanted to share good news with September 2017 filers. 

I got an case status update today. Finally my interview is scheduled. My office is San Francisco. If you're in Bay Area, you know SF office has been extremely slow on the AOS process.

My application received date: Sept 26th, 2017

I've never got RFE. I received the EAD in Dec 2017. But it took forever to get to the interview. Now I'm waiting for the interview schedule letter. It's so close to the end.

If you are waiting for the interview schedule at SF, don't lose hope! This day is coming to you guys!! I will keep you posted.

That’s awesome, I’m so happy for you ! My FO is sf too and I’m glad that things are finally moving! Good luck and keep us posted!
