Approval !

[Rusk Marcotte 20]

I see my wife was approved for the I-131 and I-765 but not the I-485 ? Why is my question 

both was approved on 2/18/20 ! Do you think it takes longer ? Are is their another step I don’t know about ?

The EAD (I-765), Advance Parole (I-131), and Adjustment of Status (I-485) are all separate entities..and are processed separately.......next step should be when they schedule for biometrics.

Then, now you are just waiting for them to schedule the Adjustment of Status appointment......she should receive her EAD/AP card soon.

Why do we need another appointment ! What do they do ?

What appointment did she have in December?  Biometrics or Adjustment of Status interview?

Well, there's your answer.  She hasn't had her AOS interview yet.

I was asking what do they do on interview ? 
I know we haven’t had that interview yet !

When will they schedule the Aos interview and what are they looking for in the interview ! Questions ? Documents and such ?

You’re probably looking at another year for I-485 (adjustment of status) interview. Until then, continue to gather evidence of your ongoing relationship. You can then take this evidence to the interview.

The process for AOS/EAD/AP is almost always biometrics > EAD/AP Approval > AOS interview > receive green card

 

Did you research this thoroughly beforehand? Every person adjusting status has an interview. That's the final hurdle to getting the green card. No one here can tell you when the interview will be, because it completely depends on your local USCIS office's processing times. It can be as quick as 4-6 months from the date of filing to well over a year. The good news is your wife can work and travel now. I would suggest researching what is needed for the AOS interview so you can start gathering all of the necessary documents. 

 

The AOS section of VJ has a ton of useful info and it's a good idea to follow the thread for the month you filed (eg: December 2019 AOS filers). Check out the AOS guides here as well.
