Surprised you were not asked to hand in his green card for the passport process. Anyway, don’t need to do anything, the expiry is meaningless as the card doesn’t do anything any more. As above if you apply for an n600 they’ll ask for it. 

Just keep it with you as  a memorabilia (optionally punch a hole on its serial number to make sure that it wont be misused if someone steals it) except that, USCIS never cares about it at this moment. Even if you return it also, they will feed it to the shredder teeth . 

No, you keep that. For example, it can be presented during the optional Form N-600 process.
He is now a US citizen and he now has his US passport. I.e. no further steps needed.

Congrats!
 
We got a letter today too! The interview will take place June 13  

uh uh im late, sorry.
 
All the  replies  from Greenbaum, toocold, and affluxdelux are all correct.  One  good  advise ,  call Fullerton  to  follow up the status  of  medical report.  Of course,  given the 10  working days window .    It will be great if Haney has her vaccine records ready.
BTW, im happy on the progress of your journey.  All the best!
 

You were approved and they kept your passport. Most people think that the minute they are approved, the passport will be stamped with the Visa...lol...After approval, it goes into AP for processing and the status might change between AP and Issued back to AP and then issued, which is normal.  Just as I tell everyone else, go to CEAC, if you are K1 Visa, on top if it says None Immigrant Visa, then your visa was issued even though AP status did not change. If still shows Immigrant Visa on top, then they are still working on it. Give it few days to a week and you should receive the good news.   Good luck!

Greenbaum's Tips:  If your medical/Embassy require that the medical facility transport your medical results then you should consider at LEAST a bare minimum window of 14 business days for that to happen. Don't a$$|u|me that because you want to "rush" things and go outside their regiment that they are going to cow tow to your wishes. They have procedures and others that they have to keep moving along and if you come in with wanting to change that, don't be so surprised that it didn't work for you. Your failure to plan is not their responsibility to drop everything for you. People think!
 
If your medical facility works under the premise that the beneficiary will hand carry the medical results to the interview then it is advisable to plan at least 3 business days between interview and medical in the event that something gets delayed. Most times the delay is short a day or two. Not a big deal.
 
 'Poor planning on your part does not necessitate an emergency on mine.'

That's 10 working days - you should be fine. I only had 8 working days from medical to interview.
However, I would still strongly encourage you to call the clinic once every couple of days to confirm the medical is on its way, and remind them to deliver it before your interview date. 
 
 

Got the final answer today, we're finally approved! It's been such a long journey, can't believe we're finally here 🎉
 
FYI: The medical hadn't been received by the embassy before my interview. I got approved 2 business days after the interview.

Same hereeee.. So excited! 

thank you  sooo much   Greenbaum...youre  a gem !!!!

That shouldn't be a problem. It's one of those things that if you bring it up it can become a problem, if you leave it along till asked then you can have it repaired if asked by the CO. One rule that I advocate is to not volunteer information. If asked, then answer truthfully. If they miss it no harm done and besides that is such a small item that it will not get you a denial.

Received an email that my case got sent to the US embassy in Abu Dhabi today!

Im hoping & praying, thank you for the positive feedback, truly needed it 💞

Probably working to them send out today since Monday is holiday and they are not open 

ThanksGreenbaum...will take your advise!!

Thanks!  My  Fiance   will call  NVC  tomorrow.  Hopeful  to hear some  good  news😊

Our NOA2 date is 10 Aug, and we got our NVC case number yesterday.  I called in the evening - around 7 pm Pacific time.  I recommend trying that tomorrow.  I had tried last week before NVC received our petition.  I knew yesterday we were in business, because for the first time Angus asked for both of our full names and dates of birth.   Good luck to you!   :-)

Hello, our NOA2 is August 1st and we already have our NVC case number and we already filed our DS160, but we couldn't schedule the an interview because the embassy told us they need a hard copy from NVC to schedule interview. Our case has been showing "At NVC" on the CEAC tracker for about 2 weeks now. My question is how long does it usually takes for the papers to from "At NVC" to "In Transit" and then "Delivered" ? Thanks.

Sorry for the long post but wanted to share what happened today....
Called USCIS 1st time tier one immediately transferred me to tier 2, left full name and was told 125minute wait time. Received call from tier 2 @5:10pm CST and was told “yes I see they took action on your case, you will receive notice in the mail 1-2 weeks” refused to tell me what action, and that they could not tell me whether approved or not....I hung up the phone with a feeling of something wasn’t right...I immediately called back and told tier 1 that I was just speaking to tier 2 about my case and that she was getting ready to tell me status of my case when it disconnected...white lie yes I know, tier 1 Ashley said; “oh on the 23rd they APPROVED your case you will receive notice in a few days!” 
 
I am still in complete shock at the same time it’s crazy how if it wasn’t for my gut telling me to call back I would have waited until Monday.... to my dear friends waiting.....KEEP CALLING everyone knows the answers to our questions so DON’T give up and don’t settle for the first time!!!!!!!!! 

First time posting, but long time reader of this site.  Thank you everyone for all your updates.  I think I share others frustration with how difficult it is to get status of this process.   I wanted to share my experience getting our MNL case number.
 
We received our NOA2 via email notification on August 8th, and in the mail a few days later.  I read several posts about which number to call and wasted tons of time on hold.  The best way I found to get the MNL# was to use the website, ASKNVC.

On 08/21 I called 603-334-0888 at 7pm west coast time, and waited 30 seconds to speak to Angus.  Who was polite, asked if I was calling about K-1 via, and told me they hadn't received it yet.  He suggested using the AskNVC since they are working to respond to that FIRST. 
 
Sure enough this morning I received a email with my MNL Case # and my fiance's beneficiary ID#. 

I just wanted to share my experience and dates, and hopefully help other avoid some of the stress of calling and calling and calling. 
 
 

Good morning everyone. I hope everyone is hanging in there, and believing and knowing that their time will come soon...to my special friends (you all know who you are) you all are in my continued thoughts and prayers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT WILL HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
