We had our interview today in St. Louis, MO at 8am, status changed to new card being produced within 1 hour. Interview was very quick and just had us double check our names, date of birth, when did we meet and where. He also asked us to tell him about some of trips over the last few years.

Finally have some great news to share: my husband had his removal of conditions interview today at the LA local field office. Was a little nervous because he received his interview letter 2 weeks ago, and his status never updated online on either site to say an interview was scheduled. The interview letter also did not have any USCIS letterhead, but when we checked in- there seemed to be no issues except confirming who the interviewer would be. Our letter was very specific about what to bring to the interview which was great since I know some letters others received were a little vague about what evidence to bring: it said to bring any new evidence of good faith marriage since our first petition in March of 2019 (like joint leases or deeds, joint bank accounts, insurance documents showing my husband as the beneficiary, birth certificates of any children, joint credit cards, etc.) plus copies and originals of all the supporting documents we submitted with our original petition.
 
We waited maybe 15 minutes before being called in. The interviewer was professional but polite and said the interview would be brief, she had all our information that we previously sent for the CR-1 and the removal of conditions. She asked my husband: how we met, our address, my cell number, where we got married and his career. She asked me about my career, if I had been to Italy for trips other than for the wedding and when they were, and if I spoke Italian (I said I was still learning). She asked us both to describe the wedding day. Then she asked if we had any additional evidence- which I gave her another large stack- she joked that she would need another book to add to the 3 books of documents and evidence I had already sent over the entire immigration process. She went through the photos we gave her and asked a few questions, then she asked my husband to confirm the info in his removal of conditions application, and then she said she was approving the application and gave him a piece of paper stating the same. She said he should receive the green card in about 2 weeks. Entire interview was maybe 15 -20 minutes. She did not ask for copies or originals of the documents we submitted with our original petition.
 
She said the office is getting busier, a good sign for any of you still waiting for LA interviews (the office was closed for 5 months, so they are behind in scheduling interviews).
 
We checked his online status when we got home and it had already updated to New Card Being Produced.
 
Quick parking tip for anyone with interviews at the LA field office downtown: we used the LADOT (Los Angeles Department of Transportation) Aiso Street Garage - Lot 763 (101 N Judge John Aiso St, Civic Center-Little Tokyo, Los Angeles, CA 90012), we were there for and hour and a half and parking came to $2. It's only $3 for 3 hours, which is much cheaper than the LA Mall parking at a whopping $17. Lot 763 is also just across the street from the USCIS building.
 
VJ has been such a great resource for me so a heartfelt thank you to you all for the information and feedback and advice I've received from the community over the years. @Lucky Cat I updated your MSC I-751 filers spreadsheet as well.

Hi all,
 
Just received the email update that our interview has been scheduled. Eagerly waiting for the letter to arrive in the mail! 

Our interview is scheduled for Dec. 22, however I am eligible to submit N-400 starting Dec. 10. Should I go ahead and submit N-400 before ROC interview or wait until after interview?  I am afraid interview will be postponed until citizenship application is processed and so it will be a combo interview. Any suggestions?

Our case got updated to Interview Ready to be Scheduled on 10/21 and today (11/6) we received the alert that the Interview has been scheduled and we will be receiving the letter soon with our date. Surprised with our quick that was, I was ready for another 8+ months wait.

Hi all,

Awesome! I filed at the end of December/beginning of January and will be going for biometrics next week.
 
It seems St Louis isn't a super busy local office so hopefully you'll be hearing some news in the next couple of months! Keep me posted!

POE was today through Chicago. I was lucky enough to be traveling with my husband, immigration officer was very nice and the whole process took less than 5 minutes. Hoping to receive Green Card in the next few weeks.
good luck to everyone else waiting for this journey to end!
