We had our interview at the Atlanta field office this morning, and it went great!
 
We had barely sat down before we were called in and our officer was very friendly and personable. She went through my I-485 and I confirmed the information, she asked if we had any other documentation to include. I gave her a copy of the deed to our house, our health insurance information, a letter from a donation we made in both of our names, and a few more pictures from our wedding. She asked wear we got our wedding rings, where my husband worked and for his date of birth. I’m sure there were a few other questions but that’s what I can remember, she then told us she was approving us and gave us a letter stating so!! 
 
I’m so excited for this part to be over, and she said it could take about 30 days to get the card in the mail! I had put in a request to change our address and received a letter from USCIS saying it was changed, but our interview letter was addressed to the old place. She updated our address, so hopefully we don’t have to chase down my green card like we did the EAD!
 
Good luck everyone still waiting! And don’t rely on the tracking app, because my status still hasn’t updated and we got the interview letter 3 weeks ago!!

Just got my interview letter! Scheduled for February 22nd, and they mailed the letter on January 24th. 
 
My file was received on March 29th, and it had been on fingerprint fee received since April 4th. 
 
So excited to finally have some news, and nervous/looking forward to the interview! 

Yesterday I finally got the update I have been waiting for for over two months! I filed om 03/24/2017, had my interview on 11/29/2017! Don't give up hope people. And I do believe that sometimes when you ask them to look at your case (always be very friendly of course)this may help. I know someone who was waiting for 1 year and 4 months, and got his GC with no interview but he did ask them what was going on etc. 

Got my card finally! After a headache trying to chase down the letter because it was mailed to my old address, I contacted USPS and they were able to hold the letter at the post office for me before it was out for delivery!
 
I'm so relieved!! Good luck to everyone stil waiting!! 

I cant sit down... I am jumping up and down... Its finally OVER!!! I just received my Green Card...
Status still says card is being produced but who cares anymore??? LOL... It came via priority mail
and MYUSPS let me track it from the moment they printed the postage all the way to my mailbox!
Its the old design(which i kinda like more than the new design!) and all the information is correct...
Now its time to celebrate!!!
 
A big THANK YOU to everyone who helped me out with this process on VJ and for sharing your
experiences with me... this was my relaxation every day,reading posts here, knowing other people
are going thru the same exact things i was...
 
P.S. Now its time for vacation and spending time with my family before sister's wedding in India...
Fingers crossed and my thoughts and prayers are with each of you, hoping all of you get good news
soon... I am going to post this in the May, April and March 3017 AOS filers topics as thats were i got all the
help from...
Best of luck!!!

@nikaero thank you! I thought the same thing but I was happy they held it for me!
 

Finally!!! After waiting for exactly 24 hours after my interview concluded with bated breath i get a text message saying your status updated and i see this on my status page!!!!
 
New Card Is Being Produced
On August 3, 2017, we ordered your new card for Receipt Number MSCXXXXXXXXX, and will mail it to the address you gave us. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.
 
 
 
yaaaaaaayyyyyy CELEBRATION TIME!!!!!!

I finally got the notification that my EAD was approved! It changed to new card being produced yesterday, and I had received my AP approval notice in the mail and it was approved on July 18. 
 
Now I have to make sure it gets mailed to the right address, I had called and spoke to a tier 2 agent and she said that the online request I had made wasn't accepted. I had her submit the change again for me, and she said it should be changed by the weekend. 

gonna head to my interview today... prayers and blessings needed!!!

Love your positivity! Thank you! I hope everything goes smoothly for you as well!

Thank you so much for that and being positive is the strongest thing you can use with this process otherwise you will be stressed out and that's never a great way to live... best of luck with your process too...

I got a notice in the mail today saying my AP was approved but nothing about my EAD! Anyone else encounter this?
 
And it was strange because I had changed my address online, but this has the forwarding sticker on it from USPS. It was addressed to our old apartment and forwarded to our house which I thought they couldn't do. 

Finallyyyyyy just got an e-mail for EAD. We ordered your new card. ! :D:D:D:D I can't believe it. Took about 114.

I'm at 107 days, no RFE/RFIE and I haven't heard anything yet! 
 
I filed a second SR on Tuesday, but haven't gotten a response. 

103 days here and nothing yet! I had a response to my service request on June 23rd, saying my case was under review. Since it's been 2 weeks since that response, I called and the agent simply said I had to wait. 

I'm the same, day 100 with no RFIE/RFE. And I had the same response to my service request, that it was under review so I was expecting to hear something by now! 
 
I also had to change my address since we moved and it's making me nervous that it wasn't actually updated! 

Hey! I used to work for Bell in Canada  
 
If you're contract is up in August, just go on a month to month plan (or BYOP) as they call it. If it's an unlimited calling plan with Bell, you can add the roam better feature for the US at $5/day. Then once you have a plan set up in the US, just cancel the Bell line. That's what I did. 
 
Also, just heard that providers in Canada have to unlock devices for free now. So if your phone is still in good shape, have them unlock it before you come and it'll work on any network here. Again, that's what I did! 
 
Hope that helps! 

Best of luck!!

I put in a service request on June 19, and just got a response today saying 'Your case is currently under review.  You should receive a decision or notice of other action shortly.'
 
I hope that means I'll hear something in the next week! I'm on day 86 today. 

You're so welcome! I know exactly how you must be feeling, I'm sure I felt the exact same way in January!!

Hey! My family drove my stuff down with them when they travelled for the wedding, and they crossed at Queenston/Lewiston. They had a uhaul with all my belongings, and they whole process took maybe 15 min. They didn't even look in the trailer! The officer was very helpful and friendly they said, and I was so anxious because I wasn't going to be with them. 
 
Unfortunately I can't help with the car questions as I didn't import one, but don't stress about the crossing! You're there, just make sure you have an itemized list (just in case! Like I said, they didn't even look at it) and that you have all your other visa paperwork in order!
 
Good luck!

AOS/EAD/AP packet was delivered today...FOUR whole days later than USPS estimated! Sigh.
At least it made it there. Anyway, with the upcoming holiday, I don't expect to receive NOA1 until at least Wednesday of next week.
