Green card finally arrived today...3 months after being transferred to CSC

I just received my card today...Geez I felt like i had to wait forever!!!!

I am in the same situation...

I think we have to wait 8-10 weeks

This is probably a long shot, but does anyone have any idea when my AOS might be approved based on my timeline?

As you can see I got an RFE after almost 3 months of not hearing anything about my case. I wasn't even showing on the system. Then after that they got my reply, they approved my EAD in just 12 days (Meaning they hurried it along based on whn I had filed the original documents.). My AOS was transferred to CSC on Jan 23rd. Might they hurry that along like they did with my EAD, or will I have to wait the full processing time starting from Jan 23rd.(i.e. another 3 or 4 months)?

I'm not in a huge hurry for my green card. I'm just glad I have my EAD.

Bon ben je vais aller y jeter un coup d'oeil...

Françaises, Français!

Connaissez-vous la FIAFE?

Ben oui: la Fédération Internationale des Accueils Français et francophones à l'Etranger! http://www.fiafe.org/

Vous connaissez?

Parce que moi, non.

Je viens de trouver ça au hasard de mes déambulations virtuelles.

Qui ici est inscrit à une de ces associations ou en a entendu parler?

Et qu'en pensez-vous?

En ce qui me concerne, je suis dans la région de Washington DC / Virginia / Maryland et je commence seulement à chercher des infos sur les français vivant aux US.

A bientôt

Ready to respond to RFE. I will send the new package to USCIS tomorrow...*sigh*

I just found out that we got an RFE on the AOS and I still haven't heard anything on the EAD/AP. This sucks

I received my biometrics appointment letter

haha thats good. But, i don't think using fedex has anything to do with it. In my email they stated

"Within 7-10 days by standard mail you will receive your official Receipt Notice (Form I-797)"

They send everything through standard mail. I think how fast you get it depends on where you live. I live all the way in South Florida I still haven't gotten mine. So i have to keep waiting

Where in South Florida?

I'm in Miami

AWESOME! Welcome!!!! you received your hard copies 2 days after you filed???!!

I wish!

I received the emails & texts on September, 19 and the actual mail today! The receipts are dated September, 16. Using Fedex helped I guess ^^

Congrats

September filer here! Yoohooooooooooo

Pour moi POE: Washington puis direction MIAMI!!

I have been there!

Good luck to everyone who is waiting.

But seriously something should be done to help them with the backlog...

I didn't have to wait long either..and like you, I had to travel too.

But as someone else said, it could go either way. Some people waited a while. They do say to you during the interview, if you are approved, that it can up to 10 business days though.

Good Luck!!

WE HAVE THE VISA IN OUR HANDS!

I called the embassy early Monday morning to inquire about the decision. They said it had been approved and today we picked it up at DHL!

I very much appreciate the responses.

Great luck to everyone going through this, we're done!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

You will be fine, don't worry.

You can legally get married

When me and my fiance first looked into the K-1 VISA, we were like, YEAH 5-8 months we can do that...it's long a time, but we can do it. I never knew how hard it was going to be, I mean the 1st stage....the LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG wait for the NOA2 was ok, I guess because we knew it was going to be long. After receiving that, for some reason I thought the process was going to be EASY.....hahahaha...HOW WRONG I WAS. I guess what I'm trying to say is that through every stage of this process, your heart jumps a beat, you become anxious, nervous, you don't want to miss a beat in the process by not sending in the right forms on time etc etc. I had my medical last week and sent my packet 3 forms in also...now I guess it's a wait...for the elusive appointment date..........

I have used this website since day 1, for information, support and personal experiences .I have immense RESPECT FOR EVERYONE GOING THIS JOURNEY/ADVENTURE.....IT TAKES GUTS, PATIENCE AND FAITH...........

I just wanted to put that out there in the VISA universe.........much love to you all.

MESV......waiting for packet 3 to be logged.

A HIGH FIVE AND A HUG TO ANYONE THAT NEEDS ONE

How sweet!!!!!

Coucou tout le monde,

Je viens de recevoir mon enveloppe chronopost Je suis trop contente Je viens de prendre mon billet d'avion ! Je pars samedi prochain le 18

TROP HEUREUSE

Trop bien!!!!

J'ai hate de partir aussi...Vivement le 4 juillet!!!!!

Oh my...

I read the thread.

I am sorry to hear this has happened to you.

I believe good advice has already been given to you!

Good luck!

Yoohoo!

Congrats

We put proof of ongoing relationship right at the beginning.

Everything gets transferred to the CO anyway at the interview stage and they do look into it.

Some people get RFEs for not proving they met.

However like someone said before, London is low-fraud and quite an easy embassy

Dear Amar,

I advise you to follow the guides on VJ ...http://www.visajourn...content/k1guide

As for timing, it will depend on which visa center you will depend on and how busy they might be. There is an average time of 6 months before an adjucator can approve your petition.

Also have a look in the regional forum to see how the interview process goes in India

Good luck on your journey!

It's all the documents that you are supposed to gather for the interview.

I was never asked to show anything when I went to visit my Fiance...except: "how long do you plan to stay here?"

Congrats to you!!!

That's really bad that they lost your documents but it also great that they don't delay you because of that!

I guess somewhere else, it would be problematic. London is an easier embassy to deal with!
