Grats JRSmooth!!!! :D

We got some good news today too! Two e-mails confirming that my EAD card is in production and that the travel documents for my AP had been approved... Well the AP is approved too late (we were supposed to leave last week, since it arrived late we had to cancel our trip...), but I don't care because I'm SO relieved to get the EAD!!!

Now I'm ready for some job hunting.

PS: I had 2 touches last friday. One on the AOS and the other on the petition for relative, and today, all of my cases were touched again. Things are moving along!!! YAY!

Crossing my fingers for all my fellow March filers!

Same for me no touch since after bio, but they sent me the interview notice for AOS and that also has no touches since after bio...so maybe those updates are not too reliable for us!

Our timelines are close even though I wasn't tranferred, I will keep you posted on my EAD and hopefully it will come soon! :yes:

Ok everyone, this last week my husband was absolutely stircrazy and maybe even a little bit blue. It has been hard to watch because he is the most calm, collected, and positive person I know.

I had done a lot of research on the adjustment and was honestly thinking we wouldn't have ANY rough patches and he would never get down. I was wrong! The good news is he's not throwing himself off any bridges like I might be in his shoes and everything is going to be ok soon.

Attached is a graph I found on another thread several months ago. Anyone finding the rollercoaster looking emotion chart to be true?

i received a notice from USCIS today saying "REQUEST FOR APPLICANT TO APPEAR FOR INITIAL INTERVIEW" <--------- is this mean there is another final interview to come?

There is a possibility of a subsequent interview (Stokes interview) if immigration suspects a fraudulent marriage.

However, the initial interview is actually the I-485 interview. If successful, you'll be approved and will receive your green card.
