March 2025 AOS Filers

[PokuPoku 36]

Still no EAD. Tomorrow will be 3 months, so I guess I'll file an inquiry tomorrow. I wasn't prepared to go over 7 months without dual income.

Sadly, with AOS it's possible to wait over a year with no income from immigrant. This is the largest drawback of adjusting most people ignore...

I hope you get good news soon!

Got EAD in about 40 days. Still waiting to get interview scheduled. Case at NBC. Receipt block IOE09309. The block seems to be getting processed at a quicker rate based on casestatusext.

 

Filed 3/25.

How do you know if the case is at the NBC?

I believe USCIS typically notifies you when the case is transferred to a field office. However, I have asked live agents a few times, and they always say the case is at NBC. I would not be surprised if this is not accurate though.

if the NBC is solely processing your case, the case number starts with MSC

if it starts with IOE (which is most common) it is being processed digitally. 

 

although all cases do start and stay at the NBC until an interview is scheduled. 

from my understanding the case doesn't get transferred until the interview is scheduled.

That is my understanding as well. Though, in some cases, NBC can approve I-485 without interview. I don't think we will be that lucky. 😂

Yeah not anymore... with the new administration, pretty much all waivers for marriage based GC applications are now forbidden

Oh yeah for sure, but I expected that. I don't actually disagree with the requirement for interview... The wait times are the problem. 🤣
