Finally! I was beginning to think this shutdown was going to be the end of me 🤣
Hopefully I get my card in the mail soon.

These are the average timelines.

But they dont say much. My interview was on November 29 and I was recommended for approval. My case status went to being in review and I am still waiting. Could be my case is waiting on some shut down government agency's approval, so who knows... 
Many people get approved on the spot and receive their greencard within two weeks in the mail. 
 

I received the greencard today!!

MY CASES GOT APPROVED! I am so so happy that this crazy wait has an end 🎉 155 days ... my god! I actually found out by calling uscis. The lady on the phone was  sooooo sweet & helpful and said that my case just got approved today (I called yesterday). I didn’t believe her at first but just now I got an email from uscis to log into my account and there it was 😅 

I did not get a stamp at the interview. The IO said ours was a straight forward case and he was happy to close his day off with such a simple matter. He said he would recommend us for approval and that it could take anywhere from 1 to 3 months. 
Meanwhile in the waiting room my husband heard every other couple say they'd have the greencard within 2 to 3 weeks. (He was never called in and sat through my 45 minute interview talking to other couples. )
On the letter I got it says to allow no more than 120 days before making a status enquiry. It is the same letter all the other couples got according to my husband. 
 
Making an info pass appointment is not something I'm wanting to do quite yet since the nearest office is a two hour drive from us. 
 
I'm not anxious to go home. I dont need to travel. My husband makes enough to enjoy a life of luxury at home if I wish. But I come from a working life, working 40 hours a week as a civil servant. It's hard to stay at home and be idle. I'm getting a bit of cabin fever. 

My status is the same as yours and had been since the interview. Case must be reviewed. 

Still waiting on the results from my interview on November 29... We were recommended for approval but haven't heard since.

To all those who are patiently/eagerly waiting for our combo cards and interview letters, i suggest to get a Nintendo switch and buy a bunch of fun games! They are so much fun and they will keep you entertained the whole day. You won't even think of any paperwork you're waiting for.  Get the Just Dance game, it's a good workout and it's so much fun! Get the mario games! It's very nostalgic!  Also, try make a bunch of recipes online even if you're not a good cook. That'll keep you busy during the day while you wait for your hubby/wifey to get home from work. Have a Merry Christmas everybody and Have a wonderful New Year!  

Hi all,
Got two blessings this week. My EAD was approved today and also received the interview appointment letter. My PD is August 2 and field office is El Paso, TX. 

My wife just got the best Christmas present.  Her EAD was approved today!!! 
 
Not only can she get a job, but she can also renew her GA driver's license, which is about to expire in a few weeks.  

From what I understand, the process of your AP and EAD will be put on hold and eventually closed after the AOS application gets into the final stages. No need for EAD or AP when you got your greencard.
