  1. My status of my I-751 process changed:

     

    “Case Was Approved: On June 8, 2021, we approved your Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence, Receipt Number EACXXXXXXXXXX. We sent you an approval notice. Please follow the instructions in the notice. If you do not receive your approval notice by June 23, 2021, please go to www.uscis.gov/e-request. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.”

     

    Does anyone know what it means? :)

    Received my combo card in the mail today 🤪🎉 5 days after approval. When I apply for a job: does my employer need to see my social security card together with the combo card? Or would it be enough for my employer to just know my SS number? 

     

    The employer needs to see the EAD and you should know your SSN. Employers use form I-9 from USCIS to check your status. :)

     

    Congrats!

    Hello VJ, I was wondering if we have to update the SSN card from not authorized to work to allowed to work, after EAD combo has been issued?

    After you receive the GC (ie is when your immigration status has changed) you will update the SSN to remove the statement. 

    You should update it at some point as K1visaHopeful mentioned. However, to be allowed to work the EAD or the greencard is enough. The employer uses the form I-9 'Employment Eligibility Verification' from USCIS to verify the eligibility. You can take a look at the form what documents can be used to verify.

     

    Greetings from MA!

    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. 

     

    I know how you feel -  coming from a working life and not being able to work is rough. The first couple weeks it seems like vacation but the longer the time is the harder it gets.

     

    What letter did you get? Because I haven't received any letters after the interview.

    That’s awesome! We were planning on informing them of our travel plans after the interview so we could hopefully get the stamp. I’m glad to hear someone from that office did :) what kind of questions did they ask? 

     

    The interview itself was pretty easy. The IO asked how we met and what our professions are. He wanted to see the marriage certificate and our passports. I had to take fingerprints and a photo. Then we went through the questions in the I-485. That is basically it!

    you don't have anything to worry about.. I think it's just a matter of time now for your status to change.. you said your IO wrote "..I-485 approved on 1/10/19" so you are approved. congratulations! :dance:🎉

     

    Thanks! I hope so....it is just another uncertainty :(

    Oh okay let me know when you receive yours! :)

    Congratulations! That’s awesome! That was the Boston office right? Our interview is the 24th and we are planning to travel the 8th if all goes well. Did you ask for the stamp? Or did they just stamp it ? 

    Yes, the interview was in Boston. I didn't ask for the stamp. But I asked how long it will take to receive the green card after the interview, since I am starting my new job next week. The IO then said that this is cutting it close. However, he offered me the stamp. :)

    My stamp is valid for 30 days and under the stamp the IO wrote: 'Pending Card Production, I-485 approved on 1/10/19'.

    it went well. she said it looks good and that she will approve it later after she checks all the documents again.

    the waiting time for the interview was really long compared to the actual interview time. our IO was really nice. how was your interview? 

     

    My interview went well, too! I even got a greencard stamp in my passport which is valid for 30 days so that I can start working until the green card is coming in the mail. However, my case updated right after the interview or even during the interview to 'Interview was completed and my Case must be reviewed' which is confusing to me.....:D

    Since I am still not able to work right now I decided to join my husband in Hawaii for about 4 months 😅 my Green Card Application in Virginia is still pending - question: is the green card interview always at your local home location? Or is it possible to have it an another uscis office? 

    I’m just curios 😇

     

    I think they schedule it at your home office but you can request a change after you received the invitation letter.
