    I’m sorry that I forgot it, I being too nervous since I didn’t get the paper mail yet after 1week from the day I got email notification. 

     I’m worry that post office or uscis goofiedy address because I just moved 3 weeks ago, even I submitted the address change.

     

    For the interview, we received the email on July 8th and the letter on July 16th. We had recently moved and, despite getting a confirmation of change of address in late June, they sent it to the old address. Fortunately, the old roommate still lived at the old address and gave us the letter.

    Congratulations!!! So happy for you ! Do you remember how long does it take to receive the paper mail in the mailbox after you got the email notification from Uscis? 

    Thank you!

     

    If you are asking about the interview email, me and mangoorange (and a number of others) have already answered your enquires regarding this. 

     

    We haven't received anything in the mail about the GC being produced yet.

    It's been a little over 3 weeks since our interview and we finally received some positive news in an email:

     

    "Application Type: I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR ADJUST STATUS 
    Your Case Status: Card/ Document Production 
    On September 6, 2018, 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."

     

    Now let's just hope they send it to the right address (we moved a few weeks ago)!

    My wife went to an Info Pass appointment today (the 2nd in about three months) and they said our case is still at the National Benefits Center (NBC) and the interview hasn't been scheduled yet. This is very disappointing because they told her over two months ago that it was still at the NBC waiting to be sent out to the field office. What exactly is going on here?

     

    We changed address (COA) last month and got confirmation of the COA in June. Now my spouse received a letter at her old address today that we have an interview schedule at the old field office for August. She physically received that letter tonight, but at the InfoPass appointment just earlier TODAY at the same field office we have our interview at, they told her that our case is still at the NBC. How is that possible? Is that not in their system? Why are they sending us the interview notice to our old address weeks after we received the change of address confirmation?!

     

    We will now have to fly back just for the interview. Is it okay to have the AOS interview at the old field office despite us having a different field office now? Thanks.

    Today we got an email that our case status for our i-485 (priority date 5/10/17),changed to: "Interview Was Scheduled"

     

    Is there any way to find out the interview date and location before receiving anything in the mail? Thanks.

    Yeah its frustrating to view those apply one year after you have their GC in hand.

     

    Yeah the old text message was in relation to my original EAD card ...do you think this text is related to my reapply of ead or my interview?

    Im just a bit curious as to why my case status for the i485 has not updated since fingerprint fee was received?

     

    Do you happen to know roughly what MM/YY they are currently processing for Minneapolis office?

    We also haven't seen our i-485 case status updated. It still says 'Fingerprint fee was received', similar to you. We also got a text message around 2am about the EAD confirming that USCIS sent it out LAST YEAR. Not really sure what that is about. I got really excited when I received the text and became immediately disappointed after I checked the status online...

    And for the sake of record keeping...

     

    As of: I-485 cases as of N-400 cases as of: N-600 cases as of:
    10/31/2017 7/31/2016 10/22/2016 12/31/2016
    12/31/2017 9/18/2016 12/10/2016 4/6/2017
    1/31/2018 9/12/2016 12/24/2016 4/12/2017

     

     

     

    This is getting out of control. Is there any way to get them to step it up? I think they are the slowest office in the whole country now by 3 months!

    Nothing new for us since August, just sitting on ready for schedule. We also used our AP this past week and wasn't to bad. Just a 20 minute delay while my wife was sitting to be interview. Didn't even get asked questions just got called to a room to sit then got told, all good and to go ahead in LAX.

     

    However, I am trying to figure out how to read the site for time lines for interviews.

     

    For our interview, will it be field office or service center? If its field office, I am confused on how to read it for the Dallas set up(Link below). It shows 9/30/17 in the top screen and a date about the 485(so back logged!) but in the logger section it shows December 1st updated...

     

    https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/processingTimesDisplay.do

     

    Your interview will be conducted at the field office. 9/30/17 is when the data was collected by USCIS from the field office. At the Dallas field office on that date, they were processing I-485 cases that have a PD of 11/14/16. Since the data was collected on 9/30/17, and because that was 70 days ago, they are probably processing applications with a PD of 1/23/17 next week, but that is just a guesstimate. The 12/7/17 is when USCIS last updated their processing times data on the web, which they do once every month.

    I am a late March/early April filer. The reason I am here is to help those in my situation.

     

    As you can see from my timeline in my signature, I have an approved I-130. I am married to my wife for over 11 years, have a 6 year old child with here and have lived in this nation for over 17 years. I have no criminal record that I am aware of. My PD is April 4, 2017. I have also been waiting for my interview since my online status changed to "ready to schedule your appointment" on June 6, 2017, close to 6 months ago. I have filled 2 SRs to shed some light on this case both to no avail. Yesterday I finally got a chance and called USCIS hot line and talked to level 2 officer. He informed me that my case is still sitting motionless in National Benefit Center in Lee Summit, MO. I was so surprised. He told me that he can't see why that is the case but he kindly informed me that based on his experience has to do with background check that is pending. He advised me to contact my local congregational representative. Upon getting off the phone I did exactly that. I found our representative, filled in the online form, printed it, signed it and mailed it all in a matter of an hour. Now need to wait for his office to inquire on my behalf and find out what is going on?

     

    After doing that I got online and start researching. I am a medical researcher and very good at pulling information from dark corners of the web! What I found is not pleasant. Based on my findings citizens of certain nation that this administration isn't on good terms with are receiving the short end of the stick. Most probably they have internally advised department employees to scrutinize, delay, deny and block applications from citizens of those nations that this administration hates/dislikes. You would assume that this can't happen in a democracy without some level of transparency. Based on all public internal memos I could get my hands on from Department of Homeland Security and its subdivision, USCIS, There is nothing that indicates the problem I am describing. But when you collect individual date from forums and post you realize that indeed some nefarious activities are ongoing.

     

    There was a recent media report that during first so-called visa-ban in early days of this administration and subsequent court stay on the order. This administration violated the court order and continued its practice in extrajudicial manner. So the moral of story, if you are a citizen of those ban nations, Mexico, some African and Latin American nations and you have been waiting for your interview for over 7 months and nothing has moved in regard to your application process you owe it to yourself and your family to call, inquire and get in touch with your congregational representative. Don't let the time laps.

    This is not good for us...do you have links or any other evidence showing that they are discriminating against travel ban countries? I thought for marriage based status changes, country of origin should have no impact. At least you i-130 was approved. Ours still has not been.

    I called USCIS to inquire about my spouse's i-485, but they told me that my i-130 needed to be accepted first. I thought they were done at the same time, no? They said they were processing i-130 up through May 31st at MSC, but I can't find any processing times for the i-130s anywhere on USCIS's website. I think the officer I was talking was mistaken and that the i-485 needs to be taken care of first.

    Trump rolls out ‘extreme vetting’ for some green cards: report

    "The new policy will take effect on Oct. 1, according to agency officials, and will likely lengthen the application process for green cards."

     

    I would think, at the very least, it will make the local field offices even more overburdened for those of us still waiting for our interviews to be scheduled. I highly doubt they will hire additional case officers to deal with the higher volume of interviews... :wacko:
