God's timing is the perfect and always His will is done in our lives

I always say this short prayer when i get discouraged

Anytime i get discouraged, I feel weak , question myself why things are not moving fast, I ask Jesus to help me. I can't do it alone but its by the grace of God.

Look at our lives, things seem to move slow, because we are all waiting but its God's grace and Hope that keeps us going.

Remember what seem to us as bitter trials are often blessings in disguise

I was about to get into a deep depression mode because I was not getting EAD approval then a strange thing happened:

I received I-797 notifying the interview date on 9/10/09.

Is it ok that I receive interview notification prior to receiving EAD approval notice?

Btw, no updates on USCIS site.

Congratulations! I bet you're really excited to get these good news!

I would not worry about the sequence of notices you get. Even though from what I've seen on this forum other people might get their EAD approvals first, there is no official rule published anywhere of how things are going to go for everyone.

I am sure you will be getting other notices very soon!

Good luck!

I know the feeling. My AOS is getting all kids of attention and I am sitting here wondering about the other two applications. I think we have been conditioned to expect a wait for the GC but a quick turn around on the EAD and AP. Regardless I am happy to action of some sort.

Congrats on the interview date!!

You'll surely be one who gets both EAD & AP without any touches first

Had biometrics yesterday, It was not quite the quickie that most people experience. We were there about an hour and a half for 3 biometrics.

A clerk for the contractor that does the biometrics scolded me for the name I used on Bella's applications. I had used her married name where she took her maiden name as her middle name (since she originally had no middle name) and my last name as her new last name. The clerk implied that it was going to cause problems. Oh well, nothing to do now but wait and see I guess.

Received touches yesterday for all the 485's & 765's. I was surprised to see the touches and assumed they were related to the biometrics.

Sorry for the mishap. I had to wait for over an hour even though I was the only one getting fingerprinted. The clerk that was doing my finger printing was talking to me as if I was a criminal being taken to a jail.

I had touches the day after fingerprints as well. Good luck-

Morning all

Congrats on those who have recieved good news , touches and interview dates

Morning Everyone!

Congrats Mon Ami on the interview!!!

I'm going stir-crazy over here. Hubby has been super busy at work and working a lot of overtime so he hasn't been around to distract me enough to stop me from checking my email all the time!!

I feel like USCIS teases us by touching our cases and then not approving anything!

Hope we hear some good things this afternoon!!

Thanks for the kind and encouraging words, shefellfromheaven! I went surfing after work last night and caught a couple of nice waves and felt so at peace - in total harmony with ocean and nature. Everything felt just right. Some little paperwork seemed like a relativel insignificant thing in the grand scheme of things.

I have a good feeling that everything for all of us here will work itself out just fine.
