Based on emails from Washington Field Office, correspondence with our senator's office, and our successful InfoPass appointment, I believe the problem is that they have to run a "name check" on the new name (they don't do that until you pass your interview). That takes a long time (maybe 3 months). Then, you go into the que for the courthouse. That took us another 3 months. They told us that they can only take 75-100 people per month at the courthouse. I know that they did schedule at least one extra session on 9/27 (perhaps related to the end of the fiscal year; perhaps related to the voter registration deadline), which we were lucky enough to be assigned to. Call your representatives/senators. That's the only way that they are aware of the problem.
I definitely will do that. I'm planning to make an infopass schedule as well. Thank you.

It has been so frustrating for me to wait for this oath taking in Fairfax office. I had my interview in June 8 & it's been 90 days since I came out of that office with the white paper telling me that I passed & my application was recommended for approval. I called the USCIS today- the 90th day since my interview to follow up the my case status since the online case status will still show me the Interview and Testing. I was told by the CS that Fairfax office is still working on November 2011 filers - that just confused me because my friend had her interview in May and took oath in August. I had a name change, is it the one that's holding my application?

I've been here for almost a year now but then I don't really know someone from VJ who lives nearby. It would be fun if I know one and could hang out sometimes. Anybody who lives here in Virginia or closer state like DC?

lol, what i was trying to say was i want to 'laminate" it so i can put it on the wall not the right word maybe, i should have said "frame"
I got my GC in the mail today that I want to laminate it if I can lol.It's already laminated!!!
congratulations as well!
Congratulations.. we got our green card as well today.. -
yeah, I was also surprised of the speedy process...and I am glad!!!
omg that's really fast! -
I got my GC in the mail today that I want to laminate it if I can lol. Please see my signature for my timeline in AOS process. I am very thankful of this site coz it helped me a lot in doing all the preparation and documentation for my AOS processing. Thanks VJ!!!!
-
Thank you so much VJers. Now the next step would be lifting of conditions but I have 2 years before doing that.

Hello VJers,
I just got an email from CRIS today and it said that our greencard is ordered for production. Me and my daughter are approved without interview!
-
Ok,
I read that if apply AOS, EAD,AP together will cost about $1010,and if apply EAD first will cost above $300 and then the AOS AP also cost
$1010.
So I want to apply AOS AP EAD three together.I just want to know the different cards will get approved in different time???
If it is right ,maybe we can get EAD soon(I think AOS will take a long time),at that time we can apply my child's SSN.[/size]
Yeah, it would be practical if you apply AOS, EAD, AP at the same time since you only pay $1,010 for everything. Normally, the EAD comes first before the AOS (please see my timeline in my signature).
-
I had the same situation with you so what I did was applied a work permit for my daughter for the sole purpose of getting a SSN. The EAD (employment authorization document) will also serve as our ID since our green card is still in process. I got approved as well as my daughter and I am just waiting for my card to come into the mail so I can apply SSN for her.
-
thank you so much guys! i would never do it without the vj site and the vjers contributions for my queries and researches. next step is lifting of conditions!
-
i just got an electronic mail from CRIS and it said that my EAD/AP as well as my daughter's are approved! I am so happy, now we only have to wait 30 days for the card to arrive in the mail and then i can get my driver's license and job hunt.... yipeeeee

I want to work and me and my husband agreed on that. I had my career way back in Pinas and I was always on the go. Plus, I also want to help pay bills and other stuff...having both couples working is an advantage (my 2 cents) and it doesn't mean that you are no longer a good wife. You only need the ability to balance family and career and things will be alright...(my another 2 cents)

i had the letter of intent for the interview scanned and faxed to me by my SO, the prescreener and the CO did not even asked for it. But in the original petition, we both submitted the letter of intent dated and signed by us and notarized. If it worries you, you can ask him to send you the original copy. hope it helps...
-
i had the letter of intent to marry notarized for the initial petition. then on the interview, i brought along with me the copy but it was not notarized. The prescreener and the CO did not even asked for it.

oo nga kakaiba pusher nila dito, buti na lang may dala ako. kakaiba din dito sa fastfood, sa pinas iniiwan ko lang pinagkainan ko kasi may tagalinis dito hindi. rude ka pag iniwan mo yun hahahha. enjoy din ako sa movie house, pasok lang ng card lalabas na ticket mo. sa airport naman di na kailangan bitbit ng ticket, online check in lang and presto, lalabas na boarding pass mo! halos lahat card eh, bumibili ako gamit debit card then click ng cash back hehhehe.
-
Same with mine. Just bring the form that St. lukes gave you when you go to the US civil surgeon. The form per se is an official form from the US Department of State. The civil surgeon will just transcribe it to the form to be submitted along with your AOS, you do not need to have a full medical. hope it helps...
-
I just got a notice from CRIS in my email that my case is transferred to CSC for processing. Lots of forums have been posted here about the transfer and majority said that generally this means not having an interview. Yipeeeeee, I am keeping my fingers crossed for the approval without the interview. please see my timeline for my AOS/EAD/AP.

Hey guys, I just have my biometric appointment! I am adding my timeline here ayt!

hi there,

hey mike,
so good to know that zandy is coming. way to go!
-rose

thanks mariapoe, makes me feel better now. godbless!
I don't think it's a big deal either. In my marriage certificate they put 'Y.' as my middle name and I never had one in neither my passport, nor my immigration paperwork. Got no questions on that one.
people who are waiting for oath ------- fairfax virginia

I did try to schedule an infopass appointment but cancelled it a day before because my husband emailed the senator's office & got a response. Jut today I got the notice for my oath taking ceremony. Looks like the senator's office called USCIS on the same day because my notice was dated the day after. Thanks everyone for the insights, to those that are still waiting for oath - the email/call to the senator's office seem to help a lot.
