Hopefully someone has some insight into this issue, My wife just became a licensed pharmacist in a state with medical marijuana, she been looking for a job and came across a job at a dispensary that required a pharmacist. If she were to get a job there, would that risk her permanent resident card or citizenship? Since marijuana is illegal at a federal level.

Thanks, she got it updated today with no problems, should have the new one in a week or two.

My wife got her 2 year green card about a month or two ago. We had just moved to Utah and had to fly back to Texas for our interview. Does she just need to go to the SS Office here and update her card? The restrictions should be removed correct? I tried looking online and only saw about replacing or getting a new SSN card. TIA!

I applied a few, i got so frustrated & I need a job right away so i apply at agency & work at a warehouse. But not as an IT. .

wow!! You applied 65???

this year i will apply & still nothing happens maybe il get  another course here..

thanks for the reply anyway.

My brother in law is working for JP Morgan Chase making almost 6 figures, he's only been here for 3 years. Are you on job boards such as Indeed? Have a profile on Linkedin? He was working at Best Buy before a recruiter found him online. He only went to UP for 2 years before migrating here, never finished his degree. I suggest applying for jobs, have a good resume and portfolio.

We filed early Feb 2019 and we had our interview yesterday. It already said card being processed by the time we got home, and today says your case was approved.

Just got back from the interview, checked our status and it says card being produced. That means we were approved? The agent didn’t even have me go in for the interview just my wife, and we didn’t have many supporting documents(cell phone, bank statement). We were so worried afterwards.

Would like to clarify with the earlier post we had not received the interview notice, I only knew I was moving and asking about the procedure for changing address. My new question was the one I just posted about asking what I should do now that the interview has been scheduled right after I move and starting a new job but the interview is not in my new city (moving from TX to UT) as I have not changed address yet.

Thanks, I will talk to my bosses and hope we can work something out where I can fly back. I realized it's December 3rd, my first day is December 2nd. I'm hoping we can fly out the evening of the 2nd then return the evening of the 3rd. I'd much rather attend the interview we've been scheduled then mess with what could happen. Is the process the same to change address after the interview? I'm guessing my circumstances are kinda rare.

Dammit...

 

This is going to suck (I just went through this whole interview thing...don't mess with it!).  Postpone your start date to December 5th.  Sorry...it's the best thing to do.  Keep your appointment in Houston...it took forever to get it...you can't mess with it!  I'm quite certain your new job will understand.  You'll fly back in to Houston on Dec 3 (do NOT fly in same-day...never know what might happen!!), stay overnight somewhere until your interview the next day.

 

Others on here...what are you thoughts?

Sorry the interview is December 3rd. My thought was fly out Monday night, go to interview Tuesday morning and then flyout that night. I already looked at flights there is a 5:25PM Monday and then a 7 something on Tuesday. It could work just need to see if I can get off for that day. I agree I would rather just get the interview over with now and not have to reschedule. I figured we wouldn't hear anything till early next year though. I just found out the job was approved this past Thursday, I was hoping they wouldn't want me there till January 1st.

Ok...so...are you STAYING in HOUSTON, or are you moving OUT of the HOUSTON area?

I currently live in Houston till Thanksgiving then I am moving that week to Utah for a new job that starts December 2nd.

Moving to where? 

 

It's seems too late to have the interview changed.  You can file an address change, but I wouldn't as Dec 4 is very close to after Thanksgiving.  Stick with where you're at, in my opinion.  But you MUST let USCIS know when you've moved, and to where.

I'm moving over Thanksgiving, I planned on changing address once we moved. I start my new job December 2nd...

I just got the mail and our interview is scheduled for December 4th. I just got a new job last week and hadn't changed field offices (asked about this previously here). What can I do at this point? I am going to talk to my bosses and see if I can have that day off to fly back but that could be a nice chunk of change out of pocket. Can I reschedule to where we are moving? Just wondering what my options are at this point.

Just got our notice for interview in Houston. I'm not sure what to do as we are moving over Thanksgiving out of state, and our interview is Dec. 4.

Thanks everyone, I will change my address once I've moved. I figured this was the right thing to do and you confirmed my thoughts.

Should I change the city I filed in? Or would it be best for us to fly back for the interview? We are moving from Houston to Salt Lake City. We filed beginning of Feb. 19 and would be moving at the end of Nov. 19. I'm thinking I should just transfer our paperwork. Is Salt Lake City faster processing then Houston? Will it cause a delay for our paperwork?

Na ahh.. and nothing is change about my EAD status. Did your EAD status change after the biometrics or not?  

No it didn't say anything different, I was checking a few times a week. We went out of town then all of a sudden it said it was delivered.

Hi, another week of waiting. I hope you guys are having a nice week. ❤️😍🙏

Y'all still haven't gotten yours?

Wow, I didn't file AP with AOS and EAD. I just sent of AP early May and we just got the approval for the AP. The estimate on here said September, we were very surprised. Hopefully, the interview will go just as fast, seems everything has been faster then the estimate.

Now that we have EAD, we just have to wait like 2 years for AOS interview? Seems like such a long time. I guess I should have filled out the AP for her so she could go back sometime, but from the requirements I didn't think she qualified.

Really? Well, Btw congrats to her she got her EAD already. did you guys receive a schedule date for her interview ?

Picked up the mail and she did get her EAD card. Hopefully the AOS will go just as fast!

When did you guys applied for her card? and I'm in Houston too.. wooh 😁 Hope to see you guys around.

 

Oh wow looked at your posts, seems you are on almost the same timeline as us. We filed K1 back in Feb 2018, then NOA1 for AOS was Feb. 6th, 2019. We did biometrics late Feb.

Need to check the mailbox, says her "card" (EAD) was delivered on 4/20. We are pretty excited if we got it that fast, estimate was earliest May 26th as of today.

I had a successful walk in attempt with my wife on Feb. 26, 2019 at the North Houston office.

Our status now say we are ready to schedule interview and will send you a notice. I think I saw someone else post this. It could still be a pretty long time correct? I'm based out of Houston.

Went to NW Houston office this past Monday. The office was not busy and they allowed us to be a walk-in. We used our copy of the letter and no one mentioned anything about it being a copy. I’m so glad we got this out of the way.
