AOS FILERS: MARCH 2009

[AaronLV 12]

hey guys just a question: can I study at a college w/the EAD. I already have my SS#.

Also my interview is on the 14th of July

Ours is also July 14th at 8am.

I believe you cannot study with the EAD. But you should check with the particular college you want to study at for their particular requirements. I have the UNLV booklet here somewhere, and if I get a chance tonight I will look it up and see what it says.

UNLV? Wow are you in Vegas? I live in N. Las Vegas. I'm going tomorrow and see what they say. I looked at the UNLV website and it says something about if you're a us citizen, permanent resident, and other. so maybe that other can mean something. I'm going to CSN first and see what's up. CSN for two years and then transfer that's my plan

Hi guys,

Just got home from my interview and i was APPROVED!!! 10min interview he asked me: Where you met? When you arrived in the US? Who went to your wedding ceremony ? That's all.

One thing he wanted to see was join documents which we have a lot. Car insurance, life, health, dental, bank, phones , zoo membership.

He stamped my passport and said that the green card will be mailed soon. Also took my EAD Card.

I asked him if he needed any pictures and he said no thanks you already sent a lot. (I sent a bunch of pictures with my AOS Package )

So that's it.

Good luck everybody, be calm, dont stress out and everything is going to be ok.

See you guys in 2 year

Much Love

Leila and Brad

How do you go earlier than your biometric appointment date? Do you need to just show up or write to USCIS prior to your visit?

Got a CRIS email last night stating that june 4th card production was ordered. Hopefully those 8 week delays are over now, I had been hoping that card production had been ordered already and they just had not updated the online status to say so (because that meant the card could show up any day... oh well).

Just walk in and ask nicely if you can do it early. If they are no busy they will do it

According to many prior postings on the subject, it really depends on the office you go to and refusal may not just be on the grounds of how busy they are. In the Bay Area, as far as I know, no one could ever do an early appointment at the San Jose office, but the Salinas office (1 1/2hr drive south) will accept them.

Basically, don't be surprised if they refuse your early biometrics.

Actually this is incorrect.

You CAN study at any time technically. You just may have to pay OUT OF STATE tuition (which is 3 times as much). I called my school and they said I can use my SPOUSES US residency!

So, call the school you are interested in, see if you can use your spouses residency to qualify for IN state tution (note: spouse has to be a state resident for at least a year I believe).

But, EAD has NOTHING to do with schooling.

Yep in Las Vegas. Good plan, most of the classes taken at CSN will transfer to UNLV, and it is quite a bit cheaper then taking them at UNLV, plus if you are over in NLV the CSN campus is a lot closer then UNLV.

Sorry should have put with JUST an EAD. Technically you CANNOT study at any time. When going to enroll they want proof that you are here in the US legally (ie non-expired I94, Permanent Resident Car, student visa, etc), and will continue to be through out the semester. We were going to enroll my wife in a short term (5 week) summer course at UNLV, however they would not accept it since the I94 would have expired shortly after starting and we had not yet received her PRC, thy would not accept the pending AOS.

Well, I went today and filled out the paper, talked to a counselor, need to take the placement test and that's it. They didn't ask for a permanent resident card or well at least not for now.

We did the same took the test, and then when it was time to enroll is when they requested all the information. Do you have a State ID or DL yet?

Got my letter today!!! My husband just called me and its July 9th!! I AM SOOOO HAPPY!!! What a way to start the weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My husband took the placement test and he is currently enrolled in English classes but they are noncredit classes. They told me to enroll him in English classes I just have to show proof that he applied for a visa. I bet if you showed them that you applied for the AOS & you are currently waiting, they would enroll you.
