Congratulations! I’m happy all that is over. Everything will work itself out🙃🙃🙃😊😊. I’ll update you on mine Monday.

I just checked the case and get the following message: "we approved your Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence".
 
I am super happy and excited. This journey is finally coming to an end. 😀
 
 

Congratulation, your USCIS journey is indeed over.

Thank you. I tried to get both done at the same time. We called and was given the run around. We applied for the I751 interview June 2019 and applied for the N400 September 2020 and I751 is still pending.  Now that the N400 is complete I'm praying that pushes them to make a decision.  I'm praying they just approve it like I have seen happen to many 🙏. 

Yes, hopefully that push them. I’m assuming you didn’t get an interview date for the I751. That is even worse, because you don’t have an idea what will happen next. However, we can hope for the best. My status for 1751 changed on January 12 ,2021 saying that they schedule my interview. I filed my I751 on April 6, 2019. This year will be 2 years. So, I’m thankful for the progress and also grateful that they will be giving me both interviews. It’s been a long wait. I will update you.

They called me yesterday and told me that my husband should accompany me to the N400 interview so that they can also adjudicate my  I751 at the same time . So, seems like my I751 interview won’t be on March 03 2021. I will be getting a combo on February 01,2021. 
 
They have to remove conditions before they can naturalized your husband. That’s what I was afraid of, doing my N400 interview and then I have to wait for them to remove conditions. It’s just time consuming. So, even if they don’t do the ceremony oath on the same day, I do not mind. As long as I do both interviews and get them out of the way.  But I will update you on what happen.

My hubby had his N400 interview today. His I751 is still pending. He passed and was given a letter saying that he will be notified via mail. I'm praying with all the evidence I sent him they will remove the conditions without doing an interview.
 
You can also call USCIS to see if they can do them both together. 

I am in the same situation. My i751 is pending with no update and my N400 is coming up. From what I have read on this forum and others, they usually do a combo interview and won't send out a separate letter for combo interview. Go with your spouse for their N400 interview because they will need you if they end up doing a combo interview.
 

No, no adjustment of status needed for him, as he was petitioned as the stepson of a US citizen, thus gets a greencard upon entry.

Finally wrote my interview. I saw that the July and August Forum are close but I found this one....

My husband Stepson and I all arrived at the Embassy around 6am. Our interview was at 7am. There were already a lot of people there. My husband's uncle dropped us off at the front since there is no parking at the embassy. There are parking areas a little bit east of the Embassy. Cellphones are not allowed at the embassy so we wrote down phone numbers we would need at the end. Since we had a minor child with us we were placed in a line that would go inside first. We first had to do a security search at the first building. They make you remove everything out of your pocket and you also need to take your watches off. After the security check was complete, we were instructed to proceed to another building.

I checked the time entering the 2nd building. It was 6:45am. My husband stood in another line while I sat down. When he was called we all proceeded to a window where a lady reviewed all the papers that were sent from NVC. She first asked for both appointment letters. She then asked for the sealed medical records,police record, original birth certificate, original marriage certificate, and passport from my husband. She asked if I was the petitioner and I said yes. For my stepson she asked for his passport, medical records and and original birth certificate. She handed both my husband and I both a pamphlet about domestic violence. She stapled #107 to both appointment letters then we sat back down and waited again. At this time is it about 7:25 AM.

Once we sat down we patiently waited as numbers were being displayed at different window. When our number was called my heart jump. The interview was done by a man. I first swore my husband in. He asked the following questions.

What is your name?
How did you meet?
When did you get married?
So you got married on (date)? - No that is the date we met....(trick question)
So you met and got married right away? Tell me more about the relationship?

Question for me: What made you attracted to him? I answered
He asked me to elaborate more since we had only met in person and married 2 months after.
I told him in English and I am in love with him and that I love his sense of humor. I then elaborated that in 2016 we both lost our moms within 6 months of each other and during the entire time we were supportive of each other. He said sorry about that and the questions ended. He made my husband place his right had on a fingerprint scanner and then he finally said the magic words.....Congratulations your visas are approved.

I was so relieved when I heard those words. By around 8:15 we were out of the embassy. Outside there were a lot of people waiting. My advise is not to go too early because during the day they don't even let you wait right outside the embassy. There were people with 9 and 9:30 appointments all the way down the street waiting. I guess they do that for security but it was alittle bit crazy. On the corner there are people with flip phones where you can make a phone call and they just ask you for a tip.

The whole process was very organized and since I sent so many proof to NVC. I did not have to show them proof of anything during the interview. We had chosen to have the passport picked up at the office where the fingerprints were done and in 2 days the passports were ready to go.

No to both. You are not immigrating at all.
 
Immigrate = to come to live permanently
 
You are already living permanently in the us so you can not immigrate to the us. You would simply be traveling with them.
 
This would be more appropriate if you were sponsoring your parents. Are they both immigrating together? Would one remain and immigrate later?

My husband picked up his passport today. Interview was on Tuesday so that was super fast. Not sure if being expedite made a difference and/or choosing pickup instead of courier as the passport option. Happy that we will soon be together. 

I had my interview on Tuesday and they asked me for nothing. I printed a copy of the I864 form and signed it just in case but at the end they just asked me a few questions. I'll be posting my review as soon as I get back to Florida.

My visa interview was actually today (The date was never updated on spread sheet....my Apologies). Long story short....BOTH MY HUSBAND AND STEPSON'S VISAS ARE APPROVED!!!! 
 
Super exhausted, happy and relieved. I will be writing a review in the next few days. 
 
Visa Journey has been a huge help. Thanks to everyone for the comments, post and advice. 

You are welcome. Good luck as well. I will be posting about my experience/review when I get back to Florida this weekend.
