Hi all -

Yesterday we got a notice to 'Appear for Intial Interview to complete the AOS' on May 6th!!!!!

Not that I'm complaining but why so fast?!

Our AOS/I485 was received on March 7th and we did biometrics on March 26th.

At first we were worried because it said "initial interview" (is there more than one???) but the letter says that it's "for completion of the AOS."

Should we not be as overjoyed as we are? I can't believe that it only took 2 months to get the interview. Looks like we won't neet the AP or Work Authorization.

Any other March filers get an interview date yet?

Hi all -

Yesterday we got a notice to 'Appear for Intial Interview to complete the AOS' on May 6th!!!!!

Not that I'm complaining but why so fast?!

Our AOS/I485 was received on March 7th and we did biometrics on March 26th.

At first we were worried because it said "initial interview" (is there more than one???) but the letter says that it's "for completion of the AOS."

Should we not be as overjoyed as we are? I can't believe that it only took 2 months to get the interview. Looks like we won't neet the AP or Work Authorization.

Any other March filers get an interview date yet?

--Bryan and Wanwisa

wow that was really fast :dance::thumbs:

Passage Revelation 19:11:

11And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

"satan is real and he's playing for keeps
God is realer and we are His sheep
which side are you on, CHOOSE, start moving your feet
choose JESUS and have ETERNAL PEACE" by GOD to me on 9/26/10 about 2am
Thank you Jesus!!!!

It simply means that 1) your case is straigh forward 2)your local office works quicker than others.

No reasons not to be overjoyed. The only thing is: sometimes with such quick interviews the FBI namecheck isn't yet completed, but that cannot be predicted. Just prepare yourself for the interview and ask once you get there.

When is your interview scheduled?

And they also say "initial interview" as some couples require a second one, it's like a disclaimer on adds.

08.2006: Entered with a B-2 visa.

07.06.07: Civil Wedding

07.17.2008 AOS approved with interview. It took 367 Days!

11.08.08: Big family wedding

09.18.09-10.03.09: First trip to France with Hubby

I-751

04.19.10: Package sent to Vermont

04.21.10: Delivered in Vermont

04.22.10: NOA date

04.23.10: Check cashed

05.17.10: Received biometrics appointment letter

06.07.10: Biometrics Appointment

06.26.10: Touched

07.07.10: Card Production Ordered!
