Hey guys, you won't believe what happened!

I was driving to target to my interview and my the highway exit I was supposed to take was closed, I had some good extra minutes since I left earlier but it wasn't enough, I had to go back all the way and got there about 9 minutes late, they told me they couldn't interview me because the interviews were from 30 to 30 minutes and I wouldn't have enough time....

I'm so frustrated, I know it wasn't my or anyone's fault but when I finally get a job interview appointment, that happens...They said I could call again and TRY to reschedule it, but I feel so ashamed, I don't know if I will or not, what do you think?

Just updating you guys on the news, thanks for wishing me luck!

It can't hurt to try. Worse happens they can't get you in then you move on to the next place. Never give up... and believe me.. Kris and I know that one well. He's had to wait to start his new job for nearly 2mths because of my employer's background check!

They are desperate to get people in for the holiday seson so I am sure they will give you another chance!!!!

Try again Good luck

I don't freaking get it... my wife and I got her case transfered to California on July 30th and we have yet to hear from them! This really sucks! Now we moved and I am not sure if i submit a change of address if that is going to delay things even more. Can someone help me please. I could always leave the old address there since the people who are living there are my ex-roommates and good friends. So i don't know what to do. Plus i thought i only had to change the address for my wife and now i heard that i as the sponsor also need to update my address.

Hi, I was transferred to California too and had a few touches on my AOS and then just randomly one day, I checked the USCIS website and my AOS had an update saying I was transferred to my local office which happened to be Atlanta. Then a week or so later, I just got a letter in the mail saying that I was to come to such and such place which I am assuming is the local office in Atlanta for Dec 17 on a official matter. Anyhow, they told me a list of what to bring with me for my interview which they noted it was an interview on the list of stuff. Not on the first page of the letter. And I was transferred way back in the middle of July to Cali. So I guess they are just very random people. I am sure they will notify you soon about it. Hopefully, they will email you first and not be so random..lol.

I don't think changing your address causes delay but then I can't be sure on that. Maybe someone else will answer that part. Oh and yes, you have to file for change on the USC address and name as well. My husband had to do that and his he had to mail in. Mine was able to do over the internet.

Anyhow, hope all goes well and you hear soon from USCIS!!

I'm new at this forum and I filed in June as well. My field office is Chicago and I feel its like so stressed because my own experience is taking forever!!!

Last time I received an update was August 8th, and I received my EAD on Sept 21st.

I filed my i-485 package ONLY (i-130 approved) in the Chicago Lockbox but it is now at the National Benefits Center in Missouri. I haven't received a letter notifying me that my case has moved. ??? We were so confused with the whole process that it was such a mistake to file separately in the first place since my husband is a US citizen. Now a lawyer is representing us but still I feel for all that we've been through we deserve this case to move fast.

Do you have any advice on past experiences on an approximate date on when could I be receiving an approval notice or an interview letter?

Hello everyone!!1

I have been busy looking for a job in San Francisco so I have not been able to check this site for a while.

Anyway, I have no news about my AOS after receiving my EADt Oct 17.

I am wondering how long does it take to receive your SSS card? I applied last October 17 and up to now I hear nothing from them.

Any feedback?

Thanks a lot.

Maraandres, they should have sent your card by now. I'd call them or visit the office again. Good luck job hunting!

You should give them a call ASAP mine took about 5 days only. When you went there they must have gave you a letter saying that it may take up to three weeks to receive your SS card, but now since that time has passed call them and have ready all documentation.

Sorry to hear. Try again - it's only Target or you can try to find something else. It's so hard to look for jobs nowadays noone is hiring or their businesses are slow or something My unemployment ended I've been looking for at least a month and no luck no one is calling me
