Posting with an update (sorry it's delayed; got caught up over the New Year's and all). Biometrics date is 01/09/2015. Could someone please update?

Also, a related question: My (the applicant's) passport is expired, and I don't have a state ID or driver's license (I'm a PhD student and we pretty much use the university shuttles--it's not a big city). Would this be a problem? The letter says "Naturalization applicants must bring their Alien Resident Card"--I'm happy to use that, but I'm not applying for naturalization so I don't know if I can get by with that. Apologies if this wasn't the appropriate thread to add this question.

Thanks, and wishing everyone here a fantastic 2015!

When I went on Monday to get my Biometrics, I took with me my Green card, drivers license and passport. They only saw my green card. I didn't even have to bring out the other two from my pockets. All the best

My Biometrics is on 01/05/2015. Please update. Thanks!

NOA1 Date 12/03/2014. Please update. Thanks!

Sent the package today to VSC

Hey Moemac59,

I am filing in four weeks. Most of the material is ready, just waiting for the affidavits from some family members.

All the best.

Hello All,

My Green card was delivered by USPS yesterday. Congratulations to all who got approved and good luck to those waiting for their interview.

Congratulations to all who got the approval and Good luck for those who have their interviews soon.

I had my interview yesterday (Feb 19th) at Los Angeles office and I got an approval. The online status is also updated which says "On February 19, 2013, your I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS was approved"

Thanks for the suggestions. I went to USCIS office and talked to them. They told me to come on Feb 19th. Surprisingly, no one even cared to ask if I have an appointment. I just walked in and immediately directed to the window. The person sitting there looked at all the NoAs and told me to come on Feb 19th for the interview. She didn't even use her computer to look up my case.

Hi,

I got married a few days ago and want to file my application package but I need the certified copy of our marriage license which for the LA county apparently will take 6-8 weeks to process and stamp.

Can any fellow Los Angelesians confirm this?

Should I file my application with my copy which only has the officiants stamp or should I wait for the countys stamped copy?

Thanks!

I agree with the other reply. I got married in Sep 2nd week in LA and waited till I got the original certificate. I think its worth waiting for the originals. Meanwhile, you can start preparing other application material.

Good luck

Hello,

I have applied for Adjustment of status from F1 OPT. My wife is a US citizen. Everything went well uptill now. BUT, something weird is going on with my interview date.

I received an NoA saying my interview will be on Feb 8th and then I received NoA saying that this interview is cancelled. Then, I received another NoA saying that my interview will be on Feb 19th. Now, this interview is not cancelled but, yesterday I received another NoA saying that my interview date is on Feb 25th. This is driving me nuts. My wife attends school in the east coast and all this messy business causing lot of trouble in planning appropriately. I tried to get infopass for Los Angeles office, unfortunately there are none available.

I am wondering if I can just go there without infopass to get some clarification. Can somebody please tell me if it is OK to go without any appointment? will I be allowed in?

Thanks

just received text/email- card is in production ! when will i receive it? ! they said 30 days but hopefully soon.

Hey Congrats. I received the same message on Jan 16th and the card was delivered by USPS on Jan 19th. You will get another update when USCIS mail's your card to you.

Yes, I think you should still go just to make sure there is no mix up somewhere. Unless you can get a definite word from a tier 2 customer service rep.

All the best!!!

Thank you for all the suggestions. One more update from my side is, today I received an email update about approval of my I-765.

I read from someone else's experience here on visa journey that you should still go for the interview. I am not sure who, but will search a little and see if I can find that post.

Thank you for the reply. I am planning to go unless I receive nother NoA with rescheduled time. Do you suggest me to go on Feb 8th even if I receive another appointment?

Thank you

Thank you milimelo for the guidance. I will try to get infopass, if I don't get one I will show up at the interview time.

Any update in your on-ilne status?

I am sorry, what do you mean by update? I received an email update about the cancellation today, are you talking about this status?

Make sure you still go to the interview as scheduled. There were people who didn't go to the interview thinking it was cancelled and then received denial notice for not showing up - cancellation never made it to the IO and they expected them to come.

Thank you for the reply. But, when I called USCIS customer service, they said it is the local office which decides the time of the interview. In my case, it is local office which canceled the appointment. There is no customer service at the local office, the only way is to get a info pass, which I can't get as there is no option under which my situation falls. So, at this point I dont see any way to find more about my application.

Did you move out of Los Angeles county?

Thank you for the reply. No, I moved few blocks from my old place (which is LA county). Does this cancellation means that now my application will be considered along with January filers?

Hello November filers,

Two days ago, I received my I-797C NoA stating the date of my interview as Feb 8th at Los Angeles office. I recently moved to a new apartment, few blocks from my old one. I updated the address with USCIS on Jan 3rd. Today morning, I received an email update for USCIS which says "we sent you a notice that the interview scheduled for your I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS was canceled by USCIS." What I am worried about is, they don't give any other information like "my application now will be considered under January filers?", "what is the reason for canceling the interview", and "What can be the rescheduled date" etc.

Could some one please comment about this.

Thank you

Hello,

I have applied for adjustment of status from F1. Two days ago IO received I-797C NoA stating the date of my interview as Feb 8th in Los Angeles office. Recently I moved to a new place so I changed the address. Today morning I received an email update about the case stating "we sent you a notice that the interview scheduled for your I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS was canceled by USCIS."

Is this because of my address change? or can it be any other reason? Please reply.

Thank you

Hello,

I have filed for adjustment of status from F1 in November 2012 (My wife is US citizen). Three weeks ago I moved to a new apartment in the same locality as my old one. I thought changing the address will lengthen the application processing time, also as my friends are still staying in the old apartment I did not think about changing the address with USCIS. Now I have interview appointment and the interview will be on Feb 8th. I am wondering how important it is to inform the USCIS about change of address? If I change the address, will there be any change in the interview date? Please give some suggestions.

Thank you

Hey Guys,

I received an email today. My interview is on Feb 8th, the location is National benefit center. But, as someone already mentioned probably in the interview letter I will see the location as Los Angeles office. Good luck to all the filers.

Hi Shyzzo,

I hope that everything will be fine after rescheduling. I am also in the some what similar boat. We applied for AOS with concurrent filing. My wife who is the petitioner got NOA for I-130, we haven't received text msg or NOA letter for I-485. Strangely, the checks for both the applications were cashed on the same day. I am not sure what is going on. I am also thinking of calling the customer service so that I will not miss my bio metrics appointment. One more thing is I tried to check my case status using the receipt number on the I-797C for I-130 and it says the case can not be found. Fingers crossed

Hello,

Thank you for initiating the thread for November filers. I sent the (AOS concurrent filing) package on 6th and m checks were cashed on 16th. Looking forward to see more people respond to this thread.

Thanks

good google doc?

Yeah, I saw that some previous filers had a google doc for the month they applied. Is there something like that for November?

Thanks

Great. Thank you all for the replies. Finally received the text message yesterday night and the checks are cashed today. I am wondering if there is a google doc for November filers.

Thanks

Thank you very much for the quick replies. I feel little better now
