Thank you so much! This is very helpful. Stay safe and God bless you!

Hello, There’s probably a lot of posts about this — tried looking it up but nothing really came up. Anyway, I am hoping to attend classes this fall. Just want to be sure applying for FAFSA won’t affect my ROC/citizenship process in the future? Won’t be considered as a public charge or something? Thank you for your help, as always!

Thank you! Yes, I called the office and told them I had to adjust my status (they also remove the “valid for work only” or something note on your card). The guy I talked to said I can mail it in - I didn’t want to risk it lol - so I asked if that means I can’t set up an appt. He put me on hold to talk to a supervisor and they scheduled me for an appt. I read that some people are just told to mail it in, hopefully you’ll be able to go to the office 😊

I didn’t get a new I-693. It’s on here: https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-8-part-b-chapter-3 "4. K or V Nonimmigrants Applying for Adjustment [26] K and V nonimmigrants applying for adjustment of status are not required to repeat the medical examination if the application was filed within one year of the date of the original medical examination, and: The medical examination did not reveal a Class A medical condition; or The applicant received a conditional waiver in conjunction with the K or V nonimmigrant visa or the change of status to V and the applicant submits evidence of compliance with the waiver terms and conditions.” Some say that if you need one, just wait until the interview and they will let you know if they want to get another one from you. I also brought an updated I-864 just for my peace of mind, in case the officer wants to see it. But I didn’t have to show mine.

I was hoping you’re here by now! Really hoping and praying you get your approval soon so you’ll be reunited with your significant other. 🙏🏻

Got my green card today, after exactly a week since my interview! Really grateful for this forum and this group specifically. You helped me stay sane! Lol. Hoping and praying for the best for everyone. See you again on ROC 😅 Also, just want to share what documents I prepared for the interview as proof of relationship (might be overkill for you but it’s for my peace of mind lol): Report of Marriage to the PH consulate, compiled photos every month since I got here, savings account agreement, bank statements, mail from Discover stating that I am an authorized user, health and dental insurance, our dogs’ adoption papers, Verizon plan, hotel stays, flight itinerary for our future trip, wedding celebration invitation/expenses, wedding/anniversary cards from family and friends, mail sent to both of us showing the same address. I brought all of the documents listed on the interview letter — officer didn’t ask for paystubs or employment verification. Just our IDs and my passport. I also brought an updated I-864 but the officer didn’t ask for that either. I asked if he wants a copy of our W2s and 1040 for 2020, but he just looked at the W2s and returned them. I called Social Security office and was able to schedule an appointment to update my immigration status, thankfully. 🙏🏻 Hang in there for those who are still waiting. Hopefully you’ll hear good news soon! Stay safe & God bless us all ♥️

Hi! I think you meant to tag @momolulu 😊

Congratulations!!! Thank you for sharing your experience.

Congratulations!!! 🎉

And it’s not fun waiting for a call back too. Takes a lot of time. Hopefully you’ll hear something about your interview soon! 🤞🏻

I think so... I sent mine March 3, received March 9. I only got the text messages April 2.

That is such a hassle! Sorry to hear that you’re experiencing this. I am frustrated for you! I thought you moved during this whole process, that’s why you’re having problems with your address. Didn’t t know it was their error. Hopefully you’ll receive good news soon. 🤞🏻🙏🏻 Yayyyy! You can take a break before ROC 😅

Thanks for sharing! Hoping you get your approval soon! 🤞🏻 Congratulations! 🎉

Omg yay! That must be really stressful and frustrating for you to wait that long for the interview letter! Best of luck. I know you’ll get approved though! — @BWJ Congratulations to you and your wife! Thank you for sharing your experience.

Hi! Have you received your interview letter yet? How long did you wait? Best of luck on your interview btw!
