I just keep telling myself, financially we would have been worse off in Scotland so things can always be worse!!!!

I have started this thread ready to start Aos in August.

Hi everyone,

I sent my AOS on the 26th and my check cashed yesterday 9/03. That's a good sign I'm looking forward to receive my NOA's in the mail in a few days. Goodluck to all of us!

Good luck

yeah I'm really happy actually. Things would be worse if we hadn't had the money to pay for AOS but either way, we are together, broke or not

You're right. Doesn't bear thinking about how much worse off financially we would be if he had come to the UK.

Hi everyone!

Dont know if youre still counting for the August filers but you can count me in. We submitted last August 28th and according to USPS, they received it the next day. Will have to check with the bank if they have cashed the check (yeah check the check hehe).

I know this is the start of the long wait and working is goin to be a few months from now. School started this week which is the first time for my son so lonesomeness is really kicking in but im tryin to keep myself busy with gourmet cooking (yeah food network is my bestfriend here hehe), goin around the area and getting myself acquainted w/ roads (numbered roads are supposedly less confusing but thats not the case with me). I know I have to enjoy my "vacation" while im on it cos when I start a job it will be hard to get some (weird that here in the U.S., they can only give a couple of weeks vacation for a year!)

I wish everyone goodluck and hope to hear about updates real soon.

Congratulations! That's a much quicker turnaround than I thought.

[Jeraly 4]

Yeah - if you look at the spreadsheet it is pretty fast... I was expecting it a little sooner but we have had no post since before the weekend so...

EAD done! Pretty easy, except for the scare they gave us. My husband is Latino and has two last names (culturally appropriate). Yet, when we filled out the forms for AOS and EAD we used only his first last name where it asked for "Family name" and then where it asked for "others named used" put his mother's last name. At the time that made the most sense.... As it turned out that was a problem and they really gave us a scare. Anyways, long story short, they fixed it right away for both the AOS and EAD and it will be fine.

Anyone know how to make sure that his second last name is added to the AP application?

Now we continue to wait....

What do you mean by EAD done??? has he received his EAD card?? or do you mean he had his Biometrics taken???

Using common sense and looking at the timeline, and the timeline having biometrics down as being for the 4th September, I would guess that they mean biometrics rather than the whole EAD process being over and done with within a month...

Quick question - I haven't even looked before today, but I notice on the timelines that there is a predicted adjudication date for both EAD and AP but not for AOS... is there a a reason for this at all do we know? It seems a bit odd is all...
