NRC

Yay! That’s awesome!! Congrats!! 
 
We got approved as well, but the status has yet to update. Our officer said we should receive the green card in 2-3 weeks. 

Hope yours went well! Just got approval notification for our daughter today as well. Really appreciate our officer putting in the extra work.

It's approved! Still waiting on some notification for our daughter; I think she's still looking at the electronic documents.
 
I honestly don't have much to add. We were a K-1 case with no complications, so it was a pretty straightforward interview.
 
They'll probably ask you about how you met, so make sure you have some of the dates and places in back of mind. My wife was pretty nervous and bungled up some of that, but the officer didn't treat it as a gotcha. I think they're just looking for you to share your story, so the main thing is that you have one.
 
They'll also repeat all of the questions from the I-485 that are serious in nature, e.g. are you a terrorist, were you ever arrested, etc. So if the beneficiary struggles with English, you may want to go over those questions to make sure they're understandable.
 
As additional evidence, we provided statements from one joint bank account and one credit card, as well as the deed to our new apartment. I also included about 10 photos from the past 6 months or so. So not a huge stack.
 
Also, looks like you're in Hialeah, but just FYI, it was cold in the Miami office. You might be in there for a while, so you may want to bring a sweater or something and covered shoes.

We had our interview today. The officer didn't say the case was approved or denied, but a lot of things were implying it would be approved (e.g. "all documentation is present and correct", we signed a statement acknowledging that we'd have to remove conditions after two years). It's 6:40pm where we are, so I'm thinking she already went home for the day, but there's no update to our case at the moment.
 
A few things that may be of interest that were gray areas when I tried to research them:
- The I-693 deficiency notice is mostly meaningless unless you didn't know your application was supposed to have one. It means your application did not have a medical, but it doesn't imply at all that it was supposed to have one.
- Filling out just the vaccine portion of your medical is A-OK if that's the only thing that was missing from your overseas medical.
- What was a very pleasant surprise was that the officer offered to adjudicate our daughter's I-485 as well (here on K-2) at the same time. My daughter's case was still at NBC after I had responded to the initial RFE. She said that it was possible for her to do so because my daughter's case was electronically filed, and since she's 5 years old, she doesn't need an in-person interview. Since all needed docs were present for her case as well, she would try to adjudicate hers, barring some computer issues.
- She said they're able to access any IOE case even if they're still at the service center, but she still had the paper copy of my wife's case in front of her (permanent record style, starting with the I-129F). This is a plus for electronic filing, but the downside is that the electronic copy of it is very slow to access for them. It pretty much hangs on every single page she tries to load, so the more pages you submitted, the harder it is to evaluate. Take that for what you will; I just know that some people like submitting everything but the kitchen sink as evidence "just in case", but if more forms go electronic and things don't improve speed wise for the officers, I can imagine a case with 400 pages of evidence would be frustrating to adjudicate.

That’s so exciting!! Let me know how it goes 😌

Hahahah I ended up doing the same yesterday 😂😂😂. I was waiting patiently for the letter since Thursday but I wanted to know so that I can ask for the day off at work. Ours is on December 2nd 🙌🏽

Same for me, they didn’t upload the document on the portal. I contacted a live agent through Emma this morning because I simply have no patience and felt like I needed to know ASAP, so I found out my interview is scheduled for 12/8 ☺️ You can try to do that if you don’t want to wait! 

Oh okay. Well the physical letter should arrive in the mail by next week hopefully. Good luck to you guys!

I just once checked again and no interview letter on the account. I guess we have to wait for the actual notice to arrive. I checked 3 times so far: at 4ish after I noticed the change in status, about 4 hours ago and just now.

So our case changed from Case actively being reviewed to interview was scheduled 💃🏽💃🏽. I don’t know the interview date yet … we have to wait for the letter 
 
NOA1 date - 07/29/21
Biometrics Appointment - 08/30/21
Case is being actively reviewed - 08/30/21
Interview was scheduled 11/04/21

Hopefully you’ll get an update soon. Apparently “case being actively reviewed” is a good case status. I’ll keep you all updated.

Hey! I just checked the website and it says Interview scheduled!!!!!!

Greetings everyone,
 
     Pushing good luck towards you guys in all your endeavors. My fiance and I are still in the processing time waiting on our NOA2, currently 228 days. April seems to be moving quickly as we have seen many approvals this week and last week. There is no telling when May will begin this phase, but it is exciting to see April enter the process nonetheless. We are thrilled that movement on our case could be any day now. Best wishes everyone and thank you for the support!
