Did you get any update or case status change? We still haven't heard anything and starting to get depressed again.

Yes!

Last night (10.12pm) - USPS picked up my card and it's now out for delivery so life is finally good again! 

Zero updates from USCIS before that so talk about a happy surprise as I was biking home along Guadalupe

We have ours in 13 days in San Antonio, too. This helps! I keep hearing mixed reviews from the SA office.

Good luck!   Mess of a road construction site around the USCIS office so plan ahead and you'll avoid our only major headache

Did they tell when you to expect the approval and when to expect the green card? 
 

we had our interview yesterday in San Antonio as well. He said he believed we were a genuine relationship and expected approval but he said he has to do the background checks. Whatever that means? I was hoping to get a USCIS status change or notification/update but 24 hours later, nothing. 
 

does it really take five more weeks to get the greencard in our hands? We were hoping to travel the first week of December. Now it seems like we won’t be able to? 

We asked and was told that it required some more "computer work" and then a supervisor approval.   Once that is done - we could expect the card in 1-2 weeks.

My lawyer replied to my update with a "hopefully you should get an approval within the coming few weeks"  (lawyers being lawyers... non-committal to the max).

I'm hopeful that we'll get an update this week and then it's a just a rushing game. 

Best of luck!

Updating to help alleviate potential stress: 

Had our I-485 interview yesterday in San Antonio.   Very nice officer and very casual interview.

20 minutes where the officer went through the application form,  checked through the yes/no questions (did you ever x/y/z/j) and then asked if we had any extra photos or evidence we wanted to add.    At the end of the interview -  we got a piece of paper with information on how to remove our conditions (I-751) in 2 years time.

Not going to fill out any data points or timelines for this website but filed early May and moved once so it's within normal bounds.

We have received notice (Email and Text) that our AOS interview has been scheduled. Still waiting on the letter to arrive.

San Antonio must be batching May through now.    Got my notification on Monday but nothing in the post yet (...).

(May 2nd filer)

Means nothing that can be predicted.   Ours has been sitting with this for a month

OK.  Gonna stop posting here if we're all just sharing personal experiences. 

Thanks

Got an update from USCIS today -

"As of September 24, 2019, we completed our review of your fingerprints and are working on your Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization... "

Based on my understanding - if all goes well then it should head towards approval and card production.   Anyone with knowledge of a general timeline between this step and next one?

Yesterday we saw a May 6 filer get approved.   With that said,  they are working on the files.  There is not much to the i765 so it should complete soon

Thank you

If you had biometrics for the i485,  then they are using that capture for the i765

Yeah of course.  That's the letter information.

More wondering if anyone knows whether this means that they are currently actively running checks and once that is done - they'll either RFE, reject or issue the EAD OR if there are steps in between? 

We're all getting pretty antsy with waiting in silence so just looking for clear information about process and steps.   USCIS is not a transparent organization.

Hi y'all,

Just wondering if anyone received a notice for the I-765 that USCIS will reuse previously captured fingerprints and other biometrics?

If so - any idea of what this means in terms of process step and timeline?

Got one today (dated the 13th) and am feeling like it's slow rolling.   Still waiting for I-485 interview and all that.
