Update... we got GC approved on March 21. Green card is en route via mail to us. Long journey is finally done! Hoping everyone else will be approved soon!

It's frustrating and eating me alive!! I thought waiting for the I-129F to get approved was stressful... this is just as stressful! I keep checking the USCIS site every day for updates and nothing ever updates on there. It bounces around from 4 months... to 2 weeks... to 2 months... to 3 weeks... to 4 months again. It's extremely frustrating! You said you reached out to USCIS, did you contact them via phone, email, in person at an office?

Hi all, here is my timeline: 9/12/2023 mailed I-485 packet (packet received 9/14) 9/27/2023 Case number assigned (IOE09224...) 10/10/2023 Letter recvd regarding biometrics. Biometrics scheduled for 10/20. 10/20/2021, completed biometrics 10/21/2023. case shows as "Case is being actively reviewed by USCIS" and crickets since then. I check the status almost everyday and it never changes anything. I am losing a lot of patience as my wife wants to visit her family but I keep being the bearer of bad news to her telling her there are no updates almost daily. Should I contact USCIS about the status? Am I in normal processing times compared to you guys? Anyone file around the same time as me and still waiting? I am desperate for some movement. Any insight would be helpful! Thank you!

I hope so! Getting a little antsy. How long after you filed did you receive your GC?

Anyone from this group get their GC's yet? We got married 08/29/2023 and submitted AOS on 9/12/2023... got an RFE and resubmitted everything on 10/21/2023 and did fingerprints shortly thereafter. It's been crickets since then. Just wondering if anyone got approved for AOS yet or got their Green Card yet.

Hi there! Have any of you December 2021 filers made any progress with receiving their I-485 (Green Card) yet? I assume we all could be in a similar timeline, just curious to see where everyone is at with their AOS process.

Has anyone filed for AOS (Green Card) and have heard anything back from them at all? I filed my paperwork on 9/12, FedEx shows it delivered on 9/14 but I have yet to receive anything from the field office. The fee hasnt been deducted from my bank account yet either so I know it hasn't been looked at. Just wondering if someone from this group has filed for AOS already and heard anything back. Thank you!

The CEAC site officially shows the status as "ISSUED" 2 days after our visa interview.

CEAC currently shows is it as "Application Received" but it was updated today. It says it may take up to 2 days for it to be updated once interview is done.

Hi everyone! today we had our visa interview at US embassy and got approved! Visa will now be mailed to my fiance's home within a few days. It's been a very long, frustrating, and difficult process but we have finally made it here. What a relieving feeling to be complete with this part of the process. Here is out timeline: NOA1: 12/21/2021 NOA2: 03/06/2023 at NVC: 04/25/2023 Case in Transit to Embassy: 05/09/2023 Case "Ready" at Embassy: 05/16/2023 Medical Examination: 07/07/2023 Visa Interview: 07/17/2023 Total days from NOA1 to Visa Interview Approval = 573 days (or 18 1/2 months) I will be visiting her in a few weeks (for vacation) and we will be traveling back to the U.S. on August 20th together!

Congratulations!!

Today we were finally able to schedule our interview appointment with the embassy! Our interview is set for July 17! Here is my timeline for your reference: Noa1: 12/21/2021 Noa2: 03/06/2023 At NVC: 04/25/2023 Case in Transit to Embassy: 05/09/2023 Case "Ready" at Embassy: 05/16/2023 Visa Payment made: 05/30/2023 and the portal on the embassy website for us to schedule an interview was opened to us... however ...no appointments were available for visa interview, the calendar was completely booked and I would receive a "No appointments available at this time. Please try again later" message every time I opened the portal to view the calendar. I checked daily and even made a few inquiries to the embassy regarding no availability to schedule appointments. They advised me that I would receive an email when appointments were made available, and today on 06/14/2023 I received that email and immediately scheduled the next available appointment which was 07/17/2023* Officially about 1 month away from visa interview. It's been a strenuous process full of bumps and hurdles but we are finally there at the last step!

Congratulations!!! happy for you guys to finally get passed that hurdle!

Question, I am in the "Schedule Interview" stage. We finally got the Embassy letter and we made payment so we can schedule interview - however the only date it allows us to select on the embassy site is June 5, 2023, which is wayy too soon and less than 10 days after we got letter. I am hesitant to select this date because we still have to gather a few more documents + do the medical exam so I do not think we can get this done in time if we were to schedule June 5th. But i am also worried that if we pass this date then will this cause an issue? It almost seems like a glitch or error because the only date in the next 6 months in the calendar is June 5. I am thinking about contacting the embassy about this but just wondering if anyone else has had this happen to them
