I got my green card today. Looks pretty neat, I was trying to count how many times it says my bday, there's at least 4 places! It's actually green now, but you all probably know that by now

Omg I posted so late last night...lol...I was at the movies, and I was set up for text updates...well I got a text saying my case is updated...and I turn to my husband and go 's*** I bet u we just got an RFE! For not doing the 693' I go into my email and voilà! Two approvals for me and my son!

So I guess it is possible! I got approved in 10 weeks, with no I693!!! So for those who got CSC trans and have no 693, it is possible!!!

Its crazy how there is no method...I saw that people from May and June were still waiting and I figured I'd see something in November! I guess I got a USCIS employee going on vacation and trying to clear his work load before the weekend started lol...whatever the theory...I did it! I got rid of my lawyer, filed alone with no RFE! Now I can relax for about 20 months! Lol!

Good luck to everyone else!!!!

I'm home!

We got to the building at 8:35 for our 9am interview. Went through security and went to the third floor.

Put our letter in the box and then went inside and sat down and waited.

I was honestly surprised how casual people were dressed!! I saw lots with lawyers.

Around 9:10am a man name Jim called us. He introduced himself and told us to follow him through the maze of hallways.

As we walked, he said he appreciated that we had taken the time to dress up a bit. He said people don't really take the interview

serious sometimes.

Finally we got to his office, he swore us in and we sat down. He said he was going to go over a couple things with us. He asked

my husband for his ID, social number, address. Then asked were we met, when we got married, and if he had any children.

He turned to me, asked for my passport and social number. I still haven't remembered my number yet so I had to get my card out and read it.

He asked me all the questions on the AOS page 3(i think it's page 3). checking everything with a red pen. He asked us for letters from our jobs so I handed those over as well as a letter from our bank stating we have join ownership in our bank account.

He asked us if we had a lease, but I explained that we weren't able to add me to it until it expires, which isn't until the 30th of this month. We showed

him a copy of that lease. He flipped through a scrapbook I made and then looked through the back part of the file.

Finally he said he was going to approve our application!!! :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:

He didn't ask for my EAD or even explain about applying for removing of conditions. He just told me I would get my card in 2 weeks!

I asked him for a stamp, which he gladly gave me and sent us on our way! I couldn't believe how easy it was!

I just got the email saying my card was ordered - I can't wait to have it in my hands!!!

Good Luck to everyone! I'm sticking around this topic to cheer you guys on!

/Starburst :star:

Received interview letter : October 27th...

Scaryyyyyyy

Congrats!! You'll do wonderful :)

Congratulations, Starburst! We have our interview on the 19th of October... THANK YOU for the info from your interview. :thumbs: I'm starting to get worried... because I was all "Type A" and rather, ummm... "#######" about everything. For some reason, I haven't done too much for this one. Guess I'm getting lazy now that we're married! HA! Anyway, I will spend time this weekend getting everything together. So, I can spend the next couple of weeks filling in the gaps.

Congrats again! :dance:

lol...awwww trust me there is no magic...there really is no method to USCIS..it's luck of the draw.

I hope people to filed before hear something soon....I really think it has to do with individual work load that these reps get assigned.... It's been a turbulous year...I'm happy to relax for a bit...I do plan on doing citizenship after removing conditions in a couple years....so I'm gonna enjoy this break :)

we can file removing conditions up to 90 days prior to expiry of 2 year GC right?

LOL yeah we got his EAD in the mail last week....I know can't believe we got it so fast. I am hoping we actually get the card by next Thursday, we are going to Canada for the weekend and it would be nice to have the GC instead of those AP papers lol.
