11/13/2015 We got an RFE because the I-864 form was outdated, so please be aware of the expiration date on every form.
Today we received a notification letting us know that our case was ready to schedule an interview.
11/23/2015 We mailed in the form I-864 to the USCIS office, now we are waiting on them.
12/04/2015 USCIS finally got my response. Still waiting on them.
3/10/2016 the interview turned out to be easier than we expected.
Greencard received, no more paperwork until 2018. |

I got this message from the USCIS:
Case Is Ready To Be Scheduled For An Interview
As of January 22, 2016, we are ready to schedule your Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or to Adjust Status, Receipt Number MSCxxxccxxcxc, for an interview. We will schedule your interview and send you a notice. Please follow any instructions in the notice. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address
My question is, When is the interview going to take place after one gets this notice?
Any information you guys can provide on this will be highly appreciated. |

Timeline Comments: None yet, be the first!
*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
** Not all cases are transfered
