Just had my interview today (Milwaukee office) and green card was approved! Officer said green card should arrive in 2-4 weeks. Very laid back interview, really friendly guy, we talked about him as much as we talked about us! He only asked to see our passports for ID, and then asked for my I-693, as I hadn't sent it in ahead of time. Then he asked some very basic questions about ourselves, and didn't ask us any questions about each other. We were probably in there for 15 minutes or so, but only because we were having such a nice conversation with him. Hopefully green card will arrive without any problem, and with luck before Christmas!

Good luck to everyone else approaching the end of their journeys, and many thanks to everyone on this forum! This forum made it sooooo much easier to get through all the steps. Thank you all!!!!

Congratulation!

We filed 4 days before your filing date. Hope we can get some updates soon!

Hi guys,

I just got status updated that our EAD approved this morning. I filed AOS for overstayed visa parent on 8/27.

Does anyone know if your application wont get REF after EAD approval?

My parent had to retake fingerprint twice, Houston office. I dont know how it's going to happen for I130 and AOS.

Good luck to all!

Hey all,

I just got my EAD approved! Woot! Woot!

Hi, how did you get message of EAD approval? Email or Text? I think office close today (Columbus day)

Yes aos based on marriage.haven't received text or email but checked status online

Thanks! Hope everything goes well for your case!

Case ready to schedule interview, does that mean no RFE?

Hi nimimi,

Did you get that notice via email/text? I have not recevied anything yet, and my biometric is same day as yours (9/21).

Hi guys,

I got a little confused about NOA1 and NOA2. I am filing for overstayed tourist visa parent.

I just got NOA1 (Receipts) yesterday and waiting for Biometric letter. So does NOA2 come BEFORE or AFTER biometric day? When I receive NOA2 (Notice of Approval), does it mean I have already passed REF stage?

Thank you!
