They only kept my passport none of my docs. I don’t know why I thought they had kept docs. They didn’t take any of my photos either but I did upload them to my case prior to today.

Hi Abena, I’ve had my interview this morning and they have said the same thing to me. Everything seems in order but they need more time, all my docs are good. Did they ever email you with any instructions at all and how did you find out whether it was issued or refused etc, was it just that visa tracker page where you type in your case number or did they email? They have kept my passport and some documents.

So our I-130 was approved 22 Dec and I had my interview letter sent on 5 March for a 17th April interview. Bear in mind that it was also over Christmas so that may have added a small backlog. Ive kept a close eye on the timelines and that seems to be the norm so from I-130 approval to interview you'll be looking at 3-4 months (ish). Naturally that will depend on how quick you get your docs uploaded and everything like that. Its seems like the whole process takes forever but it does come around, just have to be patient and trust the process as much as you can. So far everything has been pretty straight forward for us and we will know next week if it was all worth the effort.

Hi, Thanks for all the information, I have my Interview next week so all this is very helpful. I was wondering what the process is once you have been through immigration in the US and handed everything you need to over to the immigration officer, is there anything you need to do like biometrics or is it just a case of waiting for your SSN and green card to arrive to the address you wrote on the DS-260? A bit presumptuous of me but I have already got a job offer with a "projected" start date of 13 May (they're flexible on the start date which is nice). I am aware that I cannot work without my SSN so the sooner I can get it the better for me. Roughly how long does it take to get your SSN after arrival?
