Hello everyone, 
 
Just wanted to give an update and share this info. with you. 
 
I got a notification today that my new green card is being produced. 
 
My case was originally at CSC then was transferred to the local office (Oakland Park, Florida) in February 2018. 
 
Today I was approved. 
 
Hopefully all of you who are still waiting will receive good new very soon! ❤️ 

Update: I passed the citizenship exam and all the questions on 1/22/19. However, when I arrived they did not know I had I-751 pending. So they didn't have my I-751 file available, although it was supposedly in the same office. I did bring my wife so he kind of did a quick I-751 interview. When I left he said he will look for my I-751 case and review it. Then he will approve I-751 or request evidence and subsequently approve N-400.
 
Today 1/23/19 the following updates appeared in the N-400 and I-751.
 
As a background I'm CSC for I-751 pending (applied July 2017) then I applied as soon as possible for N-400 online on July 2018
 
For those with I-751 pending that haven't applied for N-400. I highly recommend applying for N-400 ASAP. In my case it seems that N-400 pushed my I-751 case. Even though my I-751 is still not officially approved (I hope the status changes tomorrow), my N-400 was approved within 6 months.

I'm thrilled my wife just received date for interview (scheduled August 29, 2012) of AOS from F-1 student visa to Conditional Residency however, one of the documentation requests on the NOA reads as follows:
Birth Certificates for all children of this marriage, and custody papers for your children and for your spouse's children not living with you...
My current wife (non-USC)and I have no children.
My oldest two children from previous relationships are already gone (26 and 23 years old) and I also have a 13 year old who lives with his mother. The 13 year old's mother and I only dated and the relationship was and still is amicable, but we never went though a court to file the administrative paperwork with the state of Washington. All support is paid through the state DHS so there is a clear paper trail on support, however the DHS does not keep copies of the original administrative agreement (i.e. custody papers, I think, per USCIS?).
So now the crazy part: I never kept a copy of the papers and my son's mother also did not keep a copy. And the attorney we had 13 years ago draw up the paperwork (administrative agreement required by the Wash state DHS) is probably dead (he was about 80 years old and I do not even remember his name). I was active army for about 24 years and honestly, the only thing I cared about at the time was making sure the boy was well taken care of, which he was.
Now with USCIS possibly asking for custody papers (has anyone with non-custodial kids ever been through the process of sponsoring an I-485 candidate?), I'm wondering what my next course of action should be.
Any suggestions?

I just woke up to the best email ever! My EAD was approved on September 2nd!

I'm late in adding my two cents... but they can be fussy at times... So just to be safe... I sent 6 as the applications are indeed processed separately. Good luck darling !

He has a 10 year card, there is no need to prove anything. davidb1980, just remember to renew it before expiration.
Also, I just want to say that for some, citizenship is a disavantage. Don't assume it is the best solution for everyone.

Everyone needs to calm down count to three and breathe...
I made a mistake not realizing he doesn't need to prove anything since he obviously already has an unconditional GC, however if YOU READ,,,i said he can RENEW his GC or APPLY FOR CITIZENSHIP then I gave him my suggestion to apply for citizenship since he has found an opportunity and it seems he has established his life here , Im not going to write here how applying for citizenship could benefit him... the decision is only his,,, so all of you CALM DOWN

Awesome! That gives me high hopes! Lol

Congratulations!!!! Great news!

Some of these 'customer service' reps can be so rude... they hardly show any empathy.
Yes we can definitely do it !
Thanks for the motivation
I hope things speed up for EVERYONE soon ♥

I am not sure what 2 months wait time Darnell referred to, but my case--similar to yours--appears to go the same route as anybody else's AOS filed concurrently with I-131 petition goes--without any delays or expedition. First, you submit almost the same docs with USCIS for AOS packet that you filed with your I-130 and with NVC (actually USCIS requires even less documents than NVC does). So there is no need for the USCIS to request your case from the NVC. Second,, your IR1 is absolutely separate process. For instance, in our case, while we have been waiting for the AOS approval, NVC scheduled an interview for our IR5 visa, which we did not attend due to AOS process.
So far what I see, I-131 approval received prior to AOS package submission definitely does not expedite your AOS process.

since you sent stuff into USCIS,
USCIS will request the casefile be sent to them from NVC. It takes some time, under 2 months,
but AOS processing won't stop, yer in a queue, waiting until your casefile can come in front of an adjudicator with USCIS.
Expect an interview.

My Facebook is completely locked down because I'm in the military, same with fiancé. USCIS couldn't see it if they tried. Also, what if I don't have FB? Does that make me not engaged? Facebook statuses mean nothing in the real world. You're fine...
Oh.....and WTH? Real nice....

Dear Original Poster,
Your wife does not need a degree in order to get a job. It seem your only options are to get someone to file the affidavit of support for you or have your wife (the party who has work authorization) get a job so she can file the affidavit for you and ultimately get you a Green Card.
You will most likely be able to begin working in a few months after the paperwork is filed because you should get the work authorization in about 2 to 3 months.
Good luck !

It isn't that hard to get a job paying 125% of the poverty line. Most decent waitresses make way more than that, for example.

FYI - US immigration can detain you if your I-94 has expired and you have not filed to adjust. Being married to a USC will not matter if nothing has been filed.
File before your I-94 expires. Alternatively, file as quickly as possible once your I-94 expires.

a friend of mine has a stripper wife. She brings home $3000 a week. Only works Thursday night, Friday night and Saturday night. It lets her stay home with her 3 small kids during the week. He watches the kids when she works. They have a really nice house and two really nice cars.
OP's wife has to be making money stripping.... probably doesn't claim any of it. Maybe she can amend her taxes from the last 2 years and claim the stripping money.. Problem solved

Sounds like she has 2 jobs, this would make four.

So she is a web can model and stripper and does it for free? She should charge.

thats one.. true.
the options is find a supporter that is willing to help meet the aos requirement. if not not, other is to take her to where you have residency.

I don't have a degree and I make over $27/hour at a large Pharma Co. Sign up with the temp agencies. Its a way to get your foot in the door. Alot of times you can be a file clerk and make $15-$20 per hour Easy.
It may not be long term, but your wife could be offered a permanent job while on temp assignments. There are jobs out there. Don't use "not having a degree" as an excuse. If you really want this, it will happen. Sometimes you have to work a little.
