Epix

Just mailed our I-751 along with all paper work on 11/30 and it was delivered today(12/2)

Attached a ton of paperwork.

I have my fingers crossed for all December filers.

Finally interview schedule on 11/6 for 12/12. Wish us luck.

Our "Case Received" date is January 15th. Still haven't heard anything.

The slick way to do it is to concurrently file for AOS/EAD/AP (I-485/I-765/I-131). This is constantly being mentioned in the AOS forums, and also in the Special Instructions tab in the USCIS Form I-485 link: https://www.uscis.gov/i-485 . The Special Instructions also mention a method for you to now file for AP and not pay a fee. The Form I-131 is a snap if you follow the VJ filled in example: https://www.visajourney.com/content/examples/ .

 

As others have said, file for EAD renewal 180 days prior to its expiration.

 

Good luck on your immigration journey.

Thank you Pitaya.

We did file AOS and EAD concurrently like you mentioned, but I never imagined that AOS would take so long. That's why we decided not to file for AP. I am now planning to prepare both EAD renewal (since it expires in April) and AP, so we will have some chance to have everything ready as soon as possible and travel in May 2020. Thanks again.

It's free: https://www.uscis.gov/system/files_force/files/form/i-485instr.pdf Page 16: "If you properly file Form I-485 and pay the required fees, you may file Form I-765 and Form I-131 without paying additional fees. You may file these forms together, or if you choose to file Form I-765 or Form I-131 separately, you must also submit a copy of your I-797C, Notice of Action, receipt as evidence that you filed and paid for Form I-485." My recent renewal was free.

Thanks for the response HRQX. We will get the forms prepared in the next couple and apply. 

Thanks a lot a for the fast responds guys.

I've been reading the instructions for both AP and EAD, but I am little confused. Should I submit filing fee or not?

Hello Guys,

We have AOS pending since February 12th with "Case is Ready to Be Scheduled for An Interview" status. We are planning a wedding in May 202, but our fear is that interview would not be scheduled by then and my wife would not have her green card. As we called USCIS we were told that processing times increased from 6-8 months to 10-22 months. Therefore we are planing to apply for travel parole(I-131). My question is since Travel Parole documents takes 3-5 months should we apply for it in the begging of December or even earlier, so we can have our wedding abroad? 

PS When should we also apply for Employment Authorization renewal?

Thank 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.

I'm starting to fill out the DS-160 and I have a question.

 

Once I have filled out the DS-160 is it possible to change the US address in which I will be living? Or does it not matter? The reason I ask is that at the moment my fiance lives in Omaha but he is currently interviewing for a job in Denver. He still has a couple more interviews to go before he will know if he's got it or not, but if he does then he will likely move there before I get to the US. So I'm just concerned that if he does get the job and moves to Denver before my interview (I haven't got my case number yet so don't know when my interview is yet), then the US address on my DS-160 will be different to where I'll actually be living. Does anyone have any suggestions?

 

I am in a similar situation. Hopefully someone could answer.

Got our case number. NOA2 August  1st.

I called today since someone posted there's had a case number from August 1st NOA2, mine was August 2nd. They have not received it yet though.

Which number did you call?

@Greenbaum posted it earlier 🤗 I think you need your WAC number and both beneficiary and petitioner's names and DOBs.

Aren't those the numbers for USCIS. I thought I'm calling NVC.

NO2 was approved on August 1st. I think it's time to call NVC. Does anybody have their number? What information should I prepare before I call them? Thanks.

it takes around a year now to receive a green card (sometimes faster, sometimes longer), but the average is 1 year...

Can you be employed during that period of time while waiting for green card? 

Hello everybody I will be visiting my fiancee this month . I was wondering if anybody can give me an advice what evidences should I collect during my trip to support our K1 journey. I can't think of anything else except for photos. Thanks.

Great movement for November today! I hope it keeps moving

I really like your optimism. Gives me some hope things will happen faster.

Just found this forum. I was hoping for NOA2 this month, but I'm not that optimistic anymore.

Jan 22, 2018: Electronic NOA1 is received
