After 140 days of waiting after my interview, my card is being produced 😴

So today, I finally got a notification through email and messages that my interview was scheduled. Now I'm waiting on the physical letter with the date.

Yesterday I received my green card, one week after my interview. I couldn't believe this day was finally here. Very happy! 
I can forget about immigration for the next 21 months. The  date I became a permanent resident is the same as the  interview.
 
Good luck to everyone that still waiting. Your day is coming soon!!

Got an email today that an action was taken on my case. My interview is finally scheduled for December 18, 2018.   Yay finally. (Orlando field office)

Had interview yesterday, 9/12/18, it was simple: how we met, and she asked if we had anything to show her and we gave a new AOSupport and evidence of being together. We were approved and she explained the 751 in two years.

hi all, I received my interview letter 8/4/2018. Interview 9/12/2018

Happy day!!!
 
I just received my work card. I can't believe, finally!!! I am so glad that the first battle is over.
 
Thank you to everyone here.I am grateful to have find this thread because we help each other.

I filled in the date. I think I put a January date when I filed it in December.

Group I have been a little bit away from the forum, but it is for an awesome reason. I am excited to be able to share some good news with you all specially considering the support you`ve all provided not only me but each other throughout of this phase.
 
I got a awesome job and started last monday. My interview was last week, Feb 26 and we were approved on the spot.  We are just super happy and I wanted to share this as quick as possible with you all. I will create a detailed feedback regarding my interview (for now, refer to my signature) process and post here soon, meanwhile I just want to thank all of you @Aviinashh @izavox @Hamilton @GoodVibesOnly @Jesusboy @Texasfiler @adipo21 @mustang85635 @Canelita @PR&PR...and Im sure I am forgetting people but from the hart THANK YOU ALL FOR THE SUPPORT.
 
I will keep around as much as I can and trying to help future K1 and AOS applicants as well.
 
Much Love and Peace to you all.
 

I know right.  Goodluck on your search! Hope you find something soon 
Today, I was talking to HR and she even called back to ask me for a photograph of my EAD card and she was hell confused why I have EAD and should have TN visa as a Canadian Citizen. (I explained to her  on our first phone conversation that I'm married to USC and is doing adjustment of status)
I was so optimistic at the beginning.  But lately, i just don't think about it as much. Spend a couple of hours a day to look for jobs.

Hello!
I got my EAD in Jan, and I just signed a contract with a really good company. YAY! One more week of relax and back to real life  
In my case, I used a quote I saw somewhere here in VJ, I told the recruiter I'm legally allowed to work in the US and I will not need sponsor now neither in the future.
Maybe was just luck or the company itself, but it worked for me!

I heard from somewhere on VJ that a job candidate is not required to answer anything related to the immigration status until the first day of the job when the employer is required to file I9. If this is something one can say during the job interview, one might avoid possibly being discriminated against.
 
This is just something anecdotal, but may be real.
 

I know its getting so frustrating. But it does make sense. they may not call it discrimination but probably they would call it as "preference" because  if I put myself in the shoes of hiring managers, one might take into consideration whether to hire someone who has stronger ties to the country and most likely to stay longer and not have "Expiry" date stapled on their work permit. I got asked on my interview several times what kind of work pemrit/visa I have,  until when my EAD card is valid and when I think my green card will come out and I don't even have a solid answer as to when it will be adjudicated.
 
Competition is so high here in florida, you could be battling with 100 to 200 other candidates for one position (as per me stalking on linkedin), A hiring manager would probably think why fight for one uncertain candidate if there is another candidate in line with almost the same credentials. 
 
I feel like florida is an ideal place if you are in the medical field.   
 
 

Got my green card today. USPS missed me yesterday but I picked it up at the post office this morning.
 
I second what shakeyy said.. if you have a non-squeeky-clean past, it's best to wait for the green card.

Received my AP approval notice today after filing it 2 months after my I-485/I-130/I-765 submission in October 2017. 

We had our AOS interview today. I was a bit discouraged that we didn't get immediate approval but the USCIS worker said "don't take that to heart. I just want to look over everything but it all looks good." We've been married for almost 18 years & he said most people he interviews have been married 2 years or less lol. Interview lasted about 20-25 minutes and at the end he explained what the GC meant and that it was good for 10 years and to make sure to not let it lapse...sooo...I am hoping he told us that because it will get approved I'm still nervous though!

Now we wait!

Double posting right now. I know! I'm sorry.
But I got my GC today! YAY!!!!

hey @JoJoJoJo what kind of industry are you in? It's great you already have a job lined up! I didn't start looking while waiting for the EAD because i did not want to keep any employer waiting and now I am stressed looking for a job. I don't have have an absolute urgent need for a job right this moment but i feel like since I have my ead that I should be working and contributing to the household already. Meh, you win some, you lose some. =(

No combo card. I received a separate card for my EAD which states not valid for re-entry and the AP will come in the form of a paper document.
