Hey guys, I have some quick questions, please help.

 

1. I submitted my form I485 in April 2, 2018 to National Benefits Center. My local office is San Francisco, CA. I am checking the uscis processing time of form I485 now and did not see NBC in the dropdown options, thus I wonder which center is processing my case, so I can estimate the timeline better. 

2. Among applicants whose local office is San Francisco, CA here ? Did anyone get the interview date yet ? My I485 status has changed into "Interview Cancelled" since last October, 2018 without scheduling any interview date for me. I am just getting more confused over time.

 

Thanks for your help.

Hey,

 

Our local office is SF (we assume, but it doesn't state it on any paper. I know I should call to confirm this...). We have not received an interview date, but ours still says ready to be scheduled.

Hi everyone, after waiting since April last year... we finally received the letter for our Interview. YAY!

Buuuuuut... it's on the ONLY week I will be travelling to Brazil (where I am from) to see family and for business.

 

I'm devastated that I won't be here. I cannot change the trip (tickets are non-refundable and being paid by the company I work for). I called Customer Service yesterday, as soon as I got the letter. She opened a service requested to me and asked me to wait 15-30 days to hear from them. The problem is that the interview falls between this window. And she said they can still deny my request and keep the interview date to what's scheduled at the moment.

 

I also tried to scheduled an Infopass but the Chicago Office is not taking any appointments or walk-ins at the moment. I'm really lost to be honest! I saw another colleague here rescheduled successfully. But I'm still very concerned whether they will reply me back at all. 

 

Any thoughts on what I should do? Would be helpful to contact Senator/Congressman?

 

I appreciate any helpful insight on this!

Same thing happened to us. Our interview is supposed to be today, but we are in Argentina. The day we got the letter, we called. We received a confirmation email about 2-3 weeks later (even with christmas and new year in between). Then we got a second email saying we would get rescheduled and receive a new date in the mail. My mom checked our mail and about a week or two ago, our new date of February 14th arrived.

I’m not expecting this. My PD is April 18, 2019 and I filed in Los Angeles. I just got an email saying that they scheduled my green card interview. I thought LA takes a year to get an interview!

Thanks. Same here. I think we have a long wait for that.

Thank you so much for this! We hear all the bad and scary stories so it's good to have someone with a good experience.

My boss was also super understanding and said he is willing to cancel the trip even if there are fees for cancelling. So now I'm going to wait for the service request to go through but knowing the trip can be cancelled and the company is ok with that is sort of relieving.

 

By the way, good luck in your interview!

To update again, we missed our appointment yesterday because we were in Argentina. We just landed in the US. My husband showed his card, they brought him to the room to process the AP, and he was done in 5 minutes. They did not ask a single question.

Update: Just got the letter!!! Our interview is on March 7th! Almost 11 months after we applied for AOS!

Hello, guys. I have a question.

I did my medical test on March 2018. If my interview didn’t come before this March, do I need to do the medical test again? Or I see the new policy that now the medical report is valid for two years, does that affect me ? Thanks.

[star6 25]

We got approved the day after our interview! Thank you god! What a long journey! Good luck to all!

Today I had my AOS (Green Card) Interview in Newark. On my drive home I received a message saying that my case status has been updated; the update was that "New Card is Being Produced". Just to confirm, this means we were approved right ? Anyone know how long before the Card is actually shipped once the Card is in production?
