No!!!  How about you?  Seems like Baltimore is a real slow office. 

No. My status says case received. I am adjusting from F1 and my driving license expires in 25 days.

My wife can't even get a drivers license.  Maryland DMV have been verifying her legal presence in the US with USCIS for months. No job or car.  It really sucks.

Did she held a driving license before?

And isn't the i485 notice enough to identify the presence?

What about an international driving license? Does she have a driving license from her country?

Your field office is Manhattan and you filed in March 2019 and you received an interview letter already? That's AMAZING! There are people who are waiting from 2018 for their interviews since Manhattan is the slowest field office. You are really lucky! Best of luck for the interview!

Yeah, I guess we got lucky. We honestly just needed some good news and were very, very surprised to get the notification that the interview was scheduled. Good luck to you if you're still waiting.

She did not have a license before. The i485 notice was not enough.  They took a copy and said they had to verify USCIS.  That was months ago.

So today we had our interview in Charlotte. Got there super early for an 8 am appointment. Got called back at 8:05 and out the door by 8:30. A lot of form questions, not really that many about our relationship besides identifying locations and times of pictures we submitted. The agent was pretty friendly and even made a joke or two during the process which helped alleviate stress. In the end he didn't guarantee approval but said it was highly likely in the next week once it gets signed off by the supervisor. I know CLT is understaffed from friends who recently has interviews and were told similar things. So waiting with baited breath for the status to change on the web/app, or a letter to come saying approved, or even better the Green Card coming in the mail. 

 

Best of luck to all!

We had our interview in Charlotte on Tuesday, Sept 24, and had a similar experience.  I wonder if you had the same officer we had, last name was Tackett I believe.  He was very friendly and asked nothing about us at all except those standard questions from the form, after the interview he told us we had a 99.9% chance of approval but his supervisor did the final approvals, so we assumed he might have been newer. But I was nervous how long that would take, our status changed the Friday in the middle of the night to case approved and we received my card end of last week.

It was indeed the same officer. I went to high school with someone with the same last name and asked if they were relatives! He didn't know her but truthfully they had very similar features so I'm guessing a distant cousin or something! 

 

Another friend has her interview on the 26th and had a similar experience, although she hasn't responded if it was the same officer (she just said a white man when I initially asked her)!

 

I'm so glad to hear you're through this process - and had a positive resolution quickly. Until I see the notice I'm still nervous though!

The whole process is nerve racking until the card is in hand! Good luck hope it comes soon!

Hi all!

 

Happy to report that we got our interview last Thursday (3rd) and two days later the status changed to Case Accepted! The lady interviewing us in field office in Raleigh was just a little scary, but still very friendly. I'm hoping to see my greencard in the mail soon!
