Waiting for approval/denial from AOS interview

[nu7015 0]

We were interviewed April 24th (see timeline below) and were told that we would know in two weeks if we were approved or denied. It's been over two weeks and still no updates online and nothing in the mail. The officer did say that even if he wanted to, he couldn't approve the case the same day because NVC still had the computer locked from the local office because NVC still thinks that our file is at NVC. He said he would request NVC to update their system since it was obvious that the local office had the file.

After waiting over a year since filing AOS, I'm not too confident in how quickly we will have an answer. My husband's EAD expires in June, along with his driver's license and he's been waiting to go back to Morocco since his sister died in March and his cousin died 2 weeks later and we were denied emergency AP (he is now experiencing severe depression). He has been waiting desperately to get some good news about the GC so he can go to see his family.

So now we sit with no sign of approval or denial. No way to file AP or to renew EAD since we've had the interview. No idea how long it will take until we have a decision.

Does anyone know if USCIS 'has' (I know they can do anything they d@mn well please) to make a decision within a specified amount of time after the interview. This is pure torture waiting.

We have contacted our Congressman's office about this and they haven't been able to get any answers as of yet either.

We plan on going to an Infopass on Thursday and taking off another day of work and driving 2 hours and taking the chance of not getting any more information.

Sorry if I'm whining. We are both so frustrated and bitter toward USCIS.

What a messed up situation!!! I'm sorry that you are going through this.

That is really terrible, I know that our AOS decision took a long time, when my EAD was due to expire, I filled to renew it, and this actually helped spark off the AOS process into action, we did have to have a 2nd interview tho.

You could try an infopass appointment, or file for renewal of EAD, see if that will help like it did for us.

Many blessings to you both
