Bartlett, TN - that's where I did biometrics. No idea if the interview will be in the same office.

That's right, thank you. Just looked it up

@Lyubov Wheeee congrats, be sure to get all your documents together now, don't wait until the last minute. Your interview letter will inform you what they want you to bring. If the letter has not changed it will tell you to bring EVERYTHING you ever got from USCIS lol no joke I'm serious. Some couples bring everything but the kitchen sink others don't. That's going to be your personal choice you and your spouse!!!!

I don't think we will bring the kitchen sink 😆 My only concern is that we have only a few pictures together, as we are both not "picture people". And I hate to think I'll have to bring all the docs we submitted.. Those guys surely don't care about saving forests

When did you marry, was it before Christmas 2019? Surely you have pictures of your first Christmas in the US (of course provided you celebrate it) they are going to be looking for things like that. We are not picture people either but you have to do what you gotta do to get what you want!!!

We got married on December 31st. I was the one taking pictures on Christmas, so that won't work however, we do have a few pictures of fishing together, climbing mountains etc. We live in the Natural State you know

I just wake up to this good news that “New Card is being produced”

 

PD : 02/12/2020
BIO : 03/10/020
Case ready to be scheduled for interview: 04/16
New card being produced 07/09/2020

I just got a nice job last week but I couldn’t fill the I-9 because my OPT expired and I have no time to apply for the STEM extension. I am calling my employer today ASAP. I just hope they hold the job for me.

For people waiting to get their card produced, apparently USCIS created a printer problem for themselves:

"Some 50,000 green cards and 75,000 other employment authorization documents promised to immigrants haven’t been printed, USCIS said in a statement."

Hopefully they will sort out this issue quickly!

If it's not one thing it's another! This could be a major issue for  folks.

Here's bad and good news.

 

The bad news is the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB), the agency that handles all bunch of budget, did not make a formal request for emergency funding as of June 30th.

The good news is US Representatives Emanuel Cleaver (D-MO) and Jeff Fortenberry (R-NE) prepare for emergency bills to support USCIS despite USCIS. And, they expect to approve before August.

I truly didn't expect this thing happens within this year, but it happens!

Apparently, those two US Representatives can't bear any risk of unemployment in their district. :)
