Congratulations @hyhy. Very Happy that everything went well for you .. 

Can you let me know if u received a tracking number with the case status “card was mailed”??

Hi @senpal86, 
No, I didn't receive tracking number when status showed "card was mailed".
The tracking number was provided when status showed  that Post Office has delivered you card.

However, I did register USPS Informed Delivery, so when the card was mailed out, I received notification something was sent to me.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for the update! 

Congratulations! Your journey has a good end!

 

I do have a question, how many days is it from card being produced to card delivered for you? Did you get the card being produced notice by mail or email?

I am currently planning a trip for the end of this month using my AP, and hoping that it would not get canceled because the green card would cancel my AP.

Thank you!

Hi @senpal86, 

Thank you for the info.

I had AOS interview in Sept. 2018 with 130 PD: Jan, 2017 (which is current as of this month).
After the interview, I received a letter (mailed) from field office saying that the case will be transferred back to NBC due to no visa is available.
So far, I haven't heard any update...

My 130 approval notice was saying that my 130 has been sent to NVC, so I am not sure if this affects processing time or not.

As you said, fingers crossed.

Oh wow. You are right. I did not consider that we can’t renew our AP and still travel without abandoning our application. My main goal is to extend my EAD anyways. It’s expiring in August. I’d just reapply when I come backfor AP because I’m going apply for a reveal end of April and I’m travelling in July.  What a mess. Would the EAD also be considered abandoned?

 

Passport inf AP that’s it. I travelled abroad twice so far with my AP and it was always the same process. First inspection, secondary inspection, stamp and I was free to go. They only asked me a question during my second trip. The officer asked me what my story was. I gave him a short and quick summary. 

Actually, according to USCIS website, as long as your current AP is valid for the entire time you are abroad, the pending I-131 (renew AP) will not be considered abandoned.

You can find more information on the below website. Check "Special Instruction" part.

Hi,

My PD (Dec 2016) is current as of March 2018.

I had my AOS interview back in November 2018.

Waiting for adjudication..

Hope i get some news this month.

Hi @senpal86,

Just wondering have you heard anything yet?

Also, was your 130 sent to USCIS or NVC after approval? 

Thank you for any update information!
