:whistle: Hi, guys...

Well, since I received work authorization, no news at all....No letters, no touches, nothing...

Things are not going quite well between us two, so I am not even sure if we would make it for the interview, but I still do not enjoy hanging like this...

Although, I went through our chart, and seems like a bunch of people do not even have their interview letters yet, right? How do you think, maybe I should get an info pass?

Sent: February 13th.

Received: February 14th at 2:11 p.m.

I'm sorry to hear things aren't working out AE, I hope they do get better. This process can be hard on even the strongest couples. I know the adjustment process has been difficult for both of us, from different perspectives. Hang in there. I have a similar time line and we don't have any touches on the AOS side since 3/11. I checked out the December filers forum today and some folks there are just getting there green cards this month (JUNE). Just hang in there and work on making your marriage work. Good luck...

Does anyone know if our TIMELINE has been updated recently? Maybe we can repost it with fresh info. I'd like to see where we stand in the process.

THanks,

Dre

No touches on my paperwork after AP / EAD either. My lawyer advised me that all I could do is to wait for the interview notice. He is of the opinion that my interview might not be until September. He also didn't believe that an Infopass appointment would yield any specific information. I plan to wait until the end of July and if I don't see any movement will make an Infopass appointment anyway.

Serously! Should we worry? While we were on vacation in Germany we rec'd an email on June 16 "welcome to the US." So exciting but still not card in the mail. We never received another email.... stating card production or such. Anyway we did have a change of address mid May. We called and filled it out online and I (petitoner) also filled out my form. When We got back from Vacation I (petioner) receieved a change of address acknowledgement in the mail. He did not receive anything, No welcome letter, no approval letter, NOTHING! Should we worry? Last touch was June 27.

Just got back from my interview today, it went smoothly, the IO was very nice, she was just very particular with the evidences and proofs of our relationship, in fact she didnt ask a lot of question but she spent too much time looking at our evidences, she only ask me the following question:

How did u met?

How long you've been together before deciding to file the petition?

Are you working right now?

and those question about terrorism.

She just ask my hubby if he is still working on the same company and thats it, she printed out a letter stating that they granted me a lawful permanent resident and the card should be mailed to me within 2 wks, if i do not receive the card in two weeks, i must schedule for infopass. That's it, now Im done! Goodluck to those who are still waiting, see yah guys on Removing of condition...hehehe!

I've got some exciting news!!! I got my interview notice in the mail today!!! Finally. We are scheduled to have our interview on August 29th at 11am in San Jose. That week is going to be a busy one for me! I have to take my PCAT on August 23rd and I start my last semester of University on the 25th. So glad I finally got it though because hubby has to leave for Texas at the end of September because he's finishing some training for the Army. Hope this week is a good week for everyone who is waiting!
