Hey all,

I'm just a little confused. We have received several emails from the USCIS that his petition has been approved to register as a permanent resident. They say that they will send his card in the mail. I was under the impression that we had to interview for him to become a permanent residence. Can someone clarify this for me?

Thanks!!!!

Sounds like you may be one of the lucky ones who has got their AOS approved without an interview. A lot of people who had their cases transferred to the California service center found that they were approved without an interview as well. Keep your fingers crossed.

1) Congrats!

2) When the GC comes, you are free to go anywhere and (legally) come back into the USA.

3) You probably get a Conditional Green Card which means you'll have to file to have conditions lifted in 19 months from original date of approval.

Good luck!
