Just submitted my husband's N400 online. It was quick and easy and we've already gotten the receipt and biometric reuse update. Crossing our fingers the process is quick and easy. He's been here for 5 years now (we got married in Aug 2018) but 10 year GC took FOOOOOOREVER at Potomac. Just got that in July, so hoping this is smoother ❤️ Can't believe how long it's been since we started the whole K1 visa journey!

Hooooooly... After reaching the "it'll happen when it happens" state of waiting for my husband's 10 year GC to be approved by the Potomac Service center, this morning I noticed a package from USCIS was coming soon on USPS Informed Delivery today. Went to check the case status after not checking in weeks and it FINALLY says "card was mailed to you" as of the 14th. I am so relieved for this to be done and feel awful for anyone who gets assigned YSC. Watching other service centers get approvals within 8 months to a year and we're at 30 months is soooo frustrating.

Posted in the monthly thread already, but filed for my husband in Jan 2021 and he just got his GC in the mail a few days ago. Case approved Jul 14th. So grateful to be out of waiting in YSC hell. On the plus side, I didn't realize the new GC would expire 10 years from issuance, so it doesn't expire until 2033 which is nice.

Husband just got his 48 month extension letter today. Jan 2021 filer. Why in the heck is Potomac soooo slow? Guess it's time to file N400. We were waiting to see if the 10 year came at the 2 year mark, and didn't want it to get transferred right before we might be done, but it seems like there's no point in waiting now. Crazy!

Yep! Have all of those sorts of things and have since very shortly after his arrival in August 2018. I know having your wife stay home with little is more socially acceptable and common than a woman being the breadwinner, so it just had me thinking twice on whether or not it would matter to USCIS that we live on one income.
 
Thanks again for the reassurance! Love this place!

Had our interview (AOS from K1) here in Charlotte this morning, and it was sooooo easy! The officer was super friendly, asked if any information had changed, went through the yes/no questions,  and that was it. He didn't ask to see ANY of the documentation we brought with us, and said he was going to approve my husband's green card on the spot, and congratulated both of us at the end of the interview! Soooo thrilled to be done with this for at least a couple of years! YAY!
