Case held for review

[Pzs 12]

Hi everyone, me and my husband had our AOS interview today and the officer handed us a paper that our case was held for review. She explained how a conditionional green card works and said to give it two weeks to get a decision but also mentioned i should check the case status tonight for an update. She mentioned security checks. Do you think our case will be approved? The interview went well in my opinion but that paper kind of worries me though.

I think the bolded part is a good sign....normally an IO won't delve into detail about how the green card works unless they were planning on recommending you for approval

Thank you so much that really makes me feel better. The status still hasn’t changed from interview scheduled. Do you know if the case status updates regularly or does it take some time for it to catch up? Thank you.

Sometimes it updates right away, sometimes there's a lag.  I'm sure you'll hear something sooner, rather than later----in the meantime, kick your shoes off and relax for a little bit tonight, at least.

Thank you very much for taking the time to answer my questions. I will try to relax and hopefully get some good news soon!

Update: i called uscis today and the rep told me i was approved yesterday around the same time i had my interview. I don’t know why io didn’t say so, online status still says interview scheduled

Because they can't say so most of the time----they can "recommend" for approval, and it goes through their supervisor for final decision.

So the io already got the supervisors approval and approved my case?

You said you called and spoke to an agent (I assume an L2 officer), and that they told you that your AOS was approved...I'm going off of what you said earlier.

Yes i spoke to two different agents(called twice to make sure). They werent tier 2 they were just the regular agents, they both said the approval notice was sent to me and card was ordered. The only reason I’m a little confused is because my case status isn’t changing online.

The online status doesn't always update....that being said, however:

 

If I were in your shoes, I would ask to be transferred to a L2 and find out the status just to make sure if you're still wary---normally the regular customer service reps aren't able to access actual case details, as far as I know.

I will definitely do that. They did say they’re not able to provide me with more information but both agents i spoke to confirmed the application was approved.
