We are looking to book a trip back to my husbands home country and having a hard time finding a clinic in the US that can guarantee PCR test results in the 3 day time frame. Any consensus on the best places that get results quickly?

Thanks

We just interviewed for GC two weeks ago. GC game a week later and SS card the next day!

Interview was thursday, all went smooth. They asked me (USC) more questions then my husband which surprised me. Still waiting for the GC and unsure of when we will get SSN

Green card was approved on Thursday. We never received the SS card after getting EAD two weeks ago. I thought one would be mail but it wasn't. Can we call or do we have to go in person? (applied multiple times but they kept saying no until EAD) also when my husband gets his GC should he carry it with him always or keep it in a secure spot like we do with passports?

I am in the same boat as you and came to the same conclusion, one question however. Can we still use turbo tax to input all the information and organize it and then we would have to print and mail it?

Great congrats. How long did your process take?

we applied in late oct

biometrics in november

ready to schedule interview 1/30

now we have our interview and EAD was just approved

We have an appointment to get our taxes done next week (Husband came in Aug, has no global income to claim, was unable to get a SSN after arrival) Since making that appointment his EAD was approved (said it was being printed 2/11/20 and we received our green card interview for March 5th

wondering now what is going to be our best best. Should we still go through with getting the ITIN or just wait until we get his SSN (you get one shortly after EAD correct)

One of the main reasons why I was having someone do it vs turbo tax or something was because they were helping apply for the ITIN so if we in fact don't need that I'm wondering if I should just plan to do them myself. Any advice is appreciated!

Interview is March 5th and just got a notification yesterday that my husbands EAD card is being produced!

This may have been asked before, but how long does it usually take from "Case is ready to be scheduled for an interview" and "Interview scheduled"?

I got an update yesterday, that my case is ready to be scheduled for an interview. 

No update on EAD tho

mine took a month

That's the longest wait for me, It took almost 2 months to interview scheduled.

our status actually just changed last night that it has been scheduled so now I just have to wait for the notice to find out when it actually is!

Our interview has been scheduled, just waiting for the letter in the mail! Still no update on AP/EAD

Got the notification last night that our interview has been scheduled! Took about a month after we got the "ready to be scheduled" message! Just waiting for the snail mail to give us the date!

Hello there! We have also filed for AOS and are in Philly. Our status changed to ready to schedule interview on 12/20/19 but still have not heard anything. Any input from folks about how long it usually takes for it to be scheduled?

103 DAYS... NOTHING YET

based on your timeline it looks like we are in very similar situations. Mine went to ready to schedule interview on 12/30 but have heard nothing since. I know it is hard but there are still other folks who filed before us who have heard less. Hopefully soon for us both!

I have been at "ready to schedule for an interview since 12/30 I am guessing it just depends on your office right? we are in philly

We got our interview scheduled notice today!! Good luck to everyone else waiting here!

 

For those who got this message.. when your letter arrived, how far out was your interview date?

did you actually get the notice that it has been scheduled? Mine switched to ready to be scheduled but have been waiting for over a week now wasnt sure how long it takes to schedule

we are in the same spot, checked in at the SS office in person multiple times and followed the steps here but had your same result. Just depends who you are dealing with I think. We are now in the AOS phase and plan on applying for the ITIN. I called H&R block and they will help do that application and file your taxes so I think I am going to go with that. 

status changed on the 30th to interview ready to be scheduled. any idea how long the wait typically is between status change and when the interview is scheduled? Does that depend on which office is local?

I had the same situation, my husband is from Malawi and it was the same way. We just put the city and country for the address and had no problems. Nothing was mailed to him

Hello! My husband took all the required documents to get a learners permit here in PA. We had to wait until we had a decision about a social security card so his i-94 is expired and when they tried to verify him in the SAVE database there systems wouldn't provide an end date that apparently the DMV needs. They said they would send the info out to homeland security and we would get a letter stating if he qualified for a drivers permit. Has anyone been through this before? Its been over the three weeks time frame they quoted us and not sure where to even start. I contacted SAVE but they were unable to help.

Thanks

Hey guys!!!

 

I'm new in the group... and together with my spouse sent the AOS package on Nov. 19... I'm filling out in PA so I guess the Local Office will be Philadelphia. Has anyone here filling in Philly? Time frames? Any advice is always welcome.

Good luck to y'all in this process.

We are in the same area, we sent all the AOS stuff and got a notice for biometrics quickly. Hoping the rest of the process goes smoothly.

So we applied for the SSN on Sept 18th, over the next two months we called SAVE and went to the office twice and kept being told things were fine just wait. Then the week our i-94 expired (this week) we got a letter saying immigration couldn't approve it. When he went back into the office they gave him a few random reasons (he can't work and doesn't need one, now that he is married the k1 isn't valid, the i-94 is out of date) I emailed the SS office based off what I could find here but because the i-94 is expired will they be able to do anything? 

Thanks in advance

Hi I know this will sound dumb... but what is the I 94 and EAD?

I-94 is the document that shows his status, that he entered on a K1 and is kind of like a count down of our 90 days we have to get married

EAD is Employment authorization document

we are in the same spot, we kept going back and being told its processing just wait. now we got a letter saying the case could not be completed and we are a week out from the i94 running out and i dont know what to do
