Email/Text notice on 7/26 only mentions I-765 EAD approval. Does not mention I-131 AP approval. Have not received separate Email/Text for I-131 yet. I am assuming that USCIS issues Combo cards (EAD/AP) now. Do i need to worry about I-131 approval since they were filed at the same time? Update: 7/31/2017-Received NOA for both EAD/AP in the Mail. Also received Text/Email that Card was Mailed. Update: 8/2/2017-Received Combo EAD/AP card in the mail today. Signature Waived. |

Received I-797 NOA for both I-765 and I-131 on 7/31/2017 in the Mail. Never got a Text or Email of I-131 Approval so it was a surprise that they both arrived at the same time. I did also get text/email that Card was mailed today. Expect the Combo EAD/AP card to come in the mail in a few days. |

Hello All,
We just got done with our interview and she was approved for her Conditional Green Card!
Our Appointment was at 11:15a and after finding parking in downtown San Diego, finding the correct entry into the building (it wasn't easy-luckily there were signs pointing us in the right direction) going through security and up to the 4th floor where the offices were located, we finally got to our seats in the waiting area. It was 11:10a. At about 11:20a we were called in. The Immigration Officer was a lady with a comforting smile on her face and she greeted us a happy Monday as we walked the short distance to her office. Once we sat down, she went right into business and asked us to stand back up to swear us in. He first request was for ID's. BTW, even though the Interview letter states that the petitioner is to bring both a birth certificate AND another form of ID to prove US Citizenship or LPR. I am a US Citizen so all I brought was my Passport and a Drivers License. No Birth Certificate was required she said if I have a US Passport.
The interview was basically a conversation which started with a request for a document from me (the petitioner) and then information about that document from her (the beneficiary). For instance, she would ask me, "Can I see your marriage certificate?" After producing a copy, she would ask my wife, "How did you meet?". So there would be a long conversation regarding our relationship between my wife and the IO up until we got married. Then she would ask me, "May I see your divorce papers?" (She knew from our thick file sitting in front of her that we were both previously divorced). After I produced the documents, she would ask my wife, "what were the reasons for your divorce?" My wife would then initiate the long conversation regarding the reasons for the divorce. She never asked me anything about my divorce other than than to confirm the date of my divorce. So that's how it went. For about an hour, she would ask for a document and once I provided it she would basically ask the beneficiary (my wife) about it. She would be taking notes as my wife would tell her story. After seeing her writing in all of those boxes on the forms that says "For Office use only" and stamping them with the date and her initials, I got the feeling that everything was going well. Then she gave us a sheet of paper that she had us sign in front of her. She told us that it was basically saying that after 2 years, we must apply for I-751 between July 30th, 2019 and October 30, 2019. Yay! She was approved for her Conditional Green Card! I asked her if we would have to go for another interview when we file for the I-751. She replied well the current administration in office wants to make interviews to remove the conditions mandatory (currently they can be waived) for all applicants so we had better prepare for that. I told her with a smile, I don't plan on letting this one go (pointing to my wife) so we should be fine. I asked when she would get her actual Green Card and she replied, in about a week. We bid her good day and we both left her office with the biggest smile on our faces!
All in all, a pleasant experience! It looks like the San Diego office has their stuff together. When we arrived, the waiting room was about 3/4 full. Had chairs for about 50 people. When we got out a little over an hour later, it was less than 1/4 full. This office was definitely busy but it looked like people were getting in and out in an efficient manner. |

*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.
