Glueckwunsch! 

Mine took 136 days.
It was in the mail about a week later. And don't let them confuse you by status updates and alerts.
My AP is still on received and I got the tracking number a week after the card had arrived.

Now get off the couch - good luck job hunting!

ich habs geschafft 🎉🎉 einreise war total unkompliziert. jetzt denk ich schon der officer hat was vergessen 🙈 
er hat nur meinen pass gestempelt und mir gesagt ich muss in den nächsten 90 tagen heiraten. dann hab ich mein kleid hochgehalten und meinte "planning on it" 😂 dann hat er gesagt good i see you are ready 😝 
 
war das wirklich alles? kam mir so easy vor. 🙈

Sounds like she has been well schooled.

heute morgen mein pass und das visa package abgeholt. keine probleme! ging auch alles super schnell! 
 
übermorgen ist POE 😍

I normally don't agree with generalisations like this but given this is the second thread with a similar issue today, I'm gonna go ahead and ask the question - if the marriage is "over" (as mine would be after going through K-1 only to have my husband refuse to accomodate the AOS process so that I could work and be independent) - why are these people trying to stay rather than heading back to an old life that would be comfortable, familiar and easier to pick up than starting brand new in a new country?
 
Sorta seems...strange ... to me.

 

No. She can either leave US or stay as illegal without right to work and deportable. 
 
No other options. 
She can only receive a green card through her petitiner. 
 
Funny though. Second Filipina girl today whose marriage goes wrong soon after arrival and before AOS.  
 
 

Hello everyone! I haven't been here for a while, too busy studying
Congrats on all the approvals, interviews, new cards and other good news!
I got my EAD approval in the mail yesterday, now waiting for the card, yay!
My AOS interview was scheduled on the 22nd, hopefully the letter with all the details arrives soon. 
How long does it usually take from getting the letter to the interview? Our baby is due in July, it would be wonderful to have this quest over with by then

Danke!!
ich darf meinen pass und die unterlagen am dienstag abholen. 😁🎉 dann schaffe ich auch meinen flug am donnerstag noch.. mit der post hätte es bestimmt auch länger gedauert. die ist ja in letzter zeit sehr unzuverlässig. 

juchuuuuu mein case ist jetzt auf issued gewechselt 

Someone I know has their French Bulldog registered as an ESA.
She flew with Delta last year and had no problems. He was in the foot area of her seat.

 

Herzlichen Glueckwunsch!
Ich freu mich fuer dich!

ahhhh APPROVED! hat sie mir direkt gesagt! war eine ganz liebe! 
hab ungefähr ne stunde gebraucht von Anfang bis Ende 😃 
 
Ich darf meinen Pass auch abholen. die melden sich dann wohl per e-mail oder telefon :-) 

Hello guys, quick update:
 
Yesterday I got an email letting me know that my EAD is being produced. Yayyyy thanks God, I was jumping up and down like a kid. When I checked online, only the egov case status website updated, nothing on the DHS website. PD Jan8th, it seems they are going thru January at a decent pace seeing updates for other Jan filers.
 
Then today afternoon around the same time I got another email and text messages that there was an update on my AOS, I checked and my interview has been scheduled, Alleluya! Now time to get ready for it, while waiting for the letter.  Same here, no update on the DHS but the egov case status did update.
 
To other January filers, yours is coming soon, from the way they work, in the next few weeks I think.

Check the little white wedding chapel in Vegas! They offer a stream, you can book in addition!

We got married in Vegas as well, but in the High Roller (The Giant Ferris wheel). They don't offer a live stream, but you could have one of your wedding guests go live on FB!
There is a ton of locations to pick from!
Good luck!

Gestern endlich nach fast 7 Monaten meine Greencard bekommen.. Hat solange gewartet, weil die Grenzbeamte beim POE anscheinend meine Fingerabdrücke nicht richtig genommen. Musste dann nochmal am 24 April zum USCIS hier in Hialeah und dann wurde nochmal mein Fingerabdrücke genommen und ein Foto gemacht. 22 Tage später war dann endlich meine Greencard in der Post.

Well folks, 
 
I have spent the past two days crying. Immediately upon arrival, my husband and I were separated (I'm the USC). His interview lasted almost 2 hours. Mine lasted  about an hour. They told him we didn't have enough evidence to have a bona fide marriage because we don't live together (I had two miscarriages, went through double depression, and he moved out because I basically went nuts--now we're in marriage counseling and working it through) and it would be denied. When I went in for my interview, I explained to them WHY he moved out (he hadn't) and they seemed much more understanding. But then they pulled out this giant letter and said, "Did you know your mom withdrew her AOS and wrote this?" and my horrible mother wrote like a 20 page letter saying he beat me and forced me into helping him get a green card!!! 
 
So they said they will mail us an RFE, where we will submit a statement about our marriage explaining stuff, and then we need to show more intermingling finances. We have a joint lease and joint bank account, but since he doesn't live with me it doesn't really matter and since he never used his card (we always shopped together!) then the bank statements don't matter. I. Want. To. SCREAM.
 
So my question is, if I bought us life insurance or got a will made up and some other things that have us both on it, would that look more suspicious since it's post-interview? Or would it not really matter since life insurance, wills, legal contracts, etc really isn't something to mess around with?
 
 

Check on the online tracker site where you have to enter the security code. My AP only got marked as "approved" in there. Anything else is still on received.

Congratulations!

Just picked up my green card from my lawyer. It was mailed out on 05/08/2018 and lawyer received it on 05/10/2018. Date on the card is 05/03/2018.
 
Good luck to everyone still waiting! Good news will come very soon!

Abwarten!
Das kommt schon noch. Gib denen 2 Wochen wegen Sommerloch!


@Fippsie: GLUECKWUNSCH!!!!  
 

Ein eine etwas ältere, kräftigere! Aaaberrrr....  yesssss!!
 
 
 

Danke, aber ich weiß noch gar nicht obs approved ist.. 

I'm adjusting from K1 and got my EAD after 136 days without expediting.
I know from at least one B2 adjusting in my area here, later than me and already having an interview.

So... either they work backwards or - more likely - its 100% random.

Hello fellow AOS December filers, just wanted to let you guys know that I got my combo card (EAD/AP) in the mail last Friday. Good luck to those who are still waiting  

I have seen B2 as well.
It's fully random as it seems.
 

Yeah, they have "corrected" the estimated processing times to 5-7 months as of now.
