Congrats everyone! We also had a successful interview yesterday. It was really quick. We were asked for a rough timeline of when we met and then the laundry list of "have you ever" questions from the initial AOS forms. He let us know he would approve us, and the status changed about an hour later.

Congrats!

Updated to Interview Was Scheduled! 😮 EAD and AP combo card will be arriving Monday. I'm interested to see if the interview will be in the San Francisco office or whether they'll send it to Sacramento or San Jose office. Really happy!

for those who received their cards for EAD and AP first, how long did it take for them to schedule your interview from the time you received your combo cards? thank you 😊❤️

Ours was two weeks. They approved the EAD/AP card around the holidays and on January 7 they scheduled our interview for February 18.

My interview was done on 1/29/20. It went on for quite a while longer than we expected - roughly 35 minutes - as the officer showed a great interest in learning about us -  our relationship, our infant child and our jobs etc. She was wonderful and thoroughly professional person. We didn't get approved on the spot, and we were a bit dejected, thinking that we might get an RFE or something. Spent an entire day nervously, as the status that evening changed to "interview completed, and the case must be reviewed." Fortunately, 24 hours later, the status changed to "approved' for both I-485 and I-130. The entire process - from submission of the application to the approval - took a total 4 months and 14 days. Waiting now for the [2-year conditional] green card to arrive.  

 

My best wishes to each of you waiting for the process to end successfully.

How many of us are still waiting on interviews? It seems @Sarge2155 and I? And then? 🤣

 
Still waiting for the interview. We are in Southern California so expected a wait. EAD/AP card has been received already.

Do we get a notice of receipt for the RFE as well (in the mail as a formal letter) or do we not get anything until it is actually accepted/denied?

Hello. You will receive just a change of status in website to " Response to USIS' request for evidence was received". You won't receive formal letter.

Thanks!  Yes, we got that, just wanted to clarify that I shouldn't be expecting a letter until an actual result is provided.

How long does it usually take for the interview notice to arrive in the mail after the "Interview Was Scheduled" update?

Oh nice, thank you!

We got our appointment letter today for March 12th in Anchorage.

Perfect timing for us. 

Thank you USCIS

P.S. I complained to my wife, why we couldn't see the appointment date online and had to wait for snail mail.  She responded, because they want to make sure we live here.😁

Smart gal

We are too.  NYC filers so not expecting the interview for a long time.  Would love the EAD/AP though....
