Our status changed today (Oct 22) to "Interview was Scheduled."  From the timing of everyone else, it looks like the interview could be 3-4 weeks from now.  Just seems awfully fast considering there is up to a 24 month wait for AOS out of the Pittsburgh Field office.

Date of the AOS interview is December 3rd, 2021.

 

 

The United States is now a country obsessed with the worship of its own ignorance.  Americans are proud of not knowing things.  They have reached a point where ignorance, is an actual virtue.  To reject the advice of experts is to assert autonomy, a way for Americans to insulate their increasingly fragile egos from ever being told they're wrong about anything.  It is a new Declaration of Independence: no longer do we hold these truths to be self-evident, we hold all truths to be self-evident, even the ones that arent true.  All things are knowable and every opinion on any subject is as good as any other.  The fundamental knowledge of the average American is now so low that it has crashed through the floor of "uninformed", passed "misinformed", on the way down, and now plummeting to "aggressively wrong."

Just wanted to update my fellow 'adjusters':

We had our interview last Tuesday and were recommended for approval. The card should arrive in the mail this week :dance:

It's been a long and difficult journey but now we can finally look to some normalcy in our lives again. This forum has been an invaluable resource to us!

Hi everyone! Anyone here with I-485 AOS field office in Santa Ana? I have my biometrics done in August 12 and my case has been stuck "case is ready to schedule an interview" and I have not heard anything yet. I have my EAD and AP expedited and got my combo card on 21 Oct. But they did not expedite my I-485 because apparently my case is within processing time. 

 

Should I try and expedite my AOS application?

I have not heard about the possibility to request an expedite to your AOS application. Maybe someone else can confirm this but I'd probably just be happy about the Combo Card and your newfound rights to work and travel and use those. :)

The i131 status will update later (week later or so) to case closed or it will never update.

I just received my EAD update that a new card is being produced! I was also wondering the same question about my AP not updating and wanting to make sure it would be a combo card. Does anyone know if it works to ask Emma to confirm?

Yay!

 

It's a combo card. Today for me both work permit and travel permit updated to case was approved. 

 

Sometimes the i131 does not update, it's still a combo card if you filed them together.
