US Immigration from United Kingdom

So I just got the email today that my interview has been scheduled!!
help!!! I m happy/ excited/nervous. Where do I start?! What do I have to take with me? What do I do to prepare? What should I expect? I have so many questions lol

Hey y'all. Hopefully this update helps someone down the line.

Last week: 27 OCT 2020

DH had his interview and was approved that day.

Interview review is here: https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profile.php?id=365540

The follow day his visa was issued. And arrived the next day after that: 29 OCT 2020.

We promptly paid the the final USCIS fee (about $200-ish bucks). This is paid directly to USCIS (when you get to this stage the website states you should pay before entering the US, however if you don't, they will send you an invoice in the mail and it will inevitably delay your GC and SSC, if you opted to get one at the petitioning stage... we did).

Booked a flight from London to Kentucky, by way of Chicago. We did this because we already know Chicago's immigration vibe, so it would be familiar for Mr. Idu.

The flight was on Sunday, 01 Nov.

London airport - bit of issue with bag weight, easily solved, they were a bit confused with what to do with visa... however it was sorted and one of the officers finally came 'round and handled it all. Please note that IR-1s (and I'm assuming CR-1s) will have two exceptions listed on your visa sticker: 1-for the travel ban on working in the US, 2-for the travel ban on immigrating. They are plainly written at the bottom of the visa entry sticker. Mr.Idu also had documentation to prove our relationship, but wasn't asked for it. London done and dusted.

Chicago airport - easy peasy. Went through immigration smoothly. They stamped his passport and wrote the a-number again. 'Welcome to America'.

The rest is history. We are reunited! Finally...after a delay over the summer due to covid-19.

Good luck to everyone! Things moved very quickly for us in the last few days. So hopefully that same energy will be the same for y'all.

Now we're just awaiting the GC and SSC.

Hi,
Apologies if this is asked a lot. I did take a look for an answer but the thread I found was from a while back.

I think I will need to renew my EAD. To do this would I have to include the below points? Anything more or less?

Thanks in advance

1. Fill out and sign form I-765. Link
2. Two RECENT passport color photos with A-Number written on the back of them
3. I 765 Approval Notice
4. Photocopy of 485 receipt (i-797)
5. Form G1145 for (email/sms) notification during the application process (optional)
6. Photocopy of Current EAD/AP combo card (front and back)

After 4.5 months of waiting, I had my Biometrics appointment at the ASC in Port Chester this morning and I'm now on to the next stage (of waiting), anyone have any time frames between the Biometrics being completed and getting work authorization/Status Adjusted?

Hello

I've got a quick question. We submitted our AOS package two weeks ago and we haven't seen any charge on our Credit card yet. Anyone knows how long this might take? even with the current processing time.

Is there any contact number in case the payment is not done within certain timeframe?

Thanks for the info
