Well I was not going to post this as it could be a HUGE error, but I decided to post anyway as it serves to give other VJers information and also something to perhaps look out for if you are in the same boat as us. I'm a September 2019 AOS filer my AOS interview was scheduled for April 17th and due to the virus situation it was cancelled as I expected. My status changed back to case ready for interview on April 1st. Enter today April 3rd I get a text from USCIS get this..... that a new card is being produced for the I-485 form (GC)!!!!!!!!

 

No interview no advance warning no nothing. I immediately logged on to my account at USCIS and low and behold  the status is New Card Is Being Produced!!!!! Can you believe that? USCIS has been known to error before, so I really can only hold my breath until the card arrives in the mail. I'm sure this will happened to other folks here on VJ if in fact this was not an error. So we all can be on the look out for other people getting their GC without going on a interview. I know no interview was a common thing several years ago, but USCIS changed that to where everyone interviewed. The only thing I can think of other than being an error is USCIS decided that all the cancellations of interviews was going to set them way behind so they decided to clean out a few cases and approve without an interview.

 

For your information we submitted the standard AOS packet (pre February 24th). In addition to the supporting documents for the I-485, I-864, I-765 and the I-131 we did not send any other documents or evidence (besides the marriage license). I have no explanation other than what I have laid out here. I'll for sure post here once the card reaches us! What a Friday!!!!!!!!! And it's early still!!!!!

I am so very happy for you !

Wow this is great news! Did you have an unusually strong case or was there anything about your application that might have warranted especially favorable treatment?   Please do keep us posted.

No not the AOS as I was waiting for the interview, but I hear they look at the big picture  meaning they refer back to the K1 for reference. My K1 was extremely  solid even if it took 299 days to approve is all I can think of, there are a few other things but I don't want to speculate here in an open forum.

Yeah you don't have go to a interview for the GC to be approved. But USCIS did say that if you didn't have a interview for AOS then you will get one for ROC. 

How about the reverse?  If we had an interview for AOS then we won’t have one for ROC?  Can you show me where USCIS said that about the ROC interview?  Thanks.

Normally if you had a interview for AOS you won't have one for ROC, but in some cases this isn't the case. I have seen people on here have a interview for AOS, ROC, and for the N400. 

 

I would have to read back through everything to find that about ROC which I won't do right now due to being buzzed. But I will find it for you

Congratulations @Sarge2155! 

 

@Meg101 - look!

Thank you thank you. I have since seen or read about another person getting waived, so maybe this is the real deal.

The N400 interview is never waived is what I read somewhere.
