Tuts, I received the interview letter 57 days after receiving bio letter and 51 days after completing bio.

Also, I received the first EAD production order 63 days after receiving bio letter and 57 days after completing bio.

So in my opinion, and keeping in mind that we both have the case at Lee Summit, MO, I think you are fine.

One thing that I did was to call USCIS and expedite the EAD telling them that my wife had a debt to pay and I needed to work. That probably helped but again, your timeline seems just fine.

If you look at my timeline you will see that there was a period of over 40 days (between 5/27 and 7/8) without any updates until I received the interview letter on 7/8.

Good luck

Thanks for the info Nico330, I haven't checked yet today don't really feel like being disappointed again. I want to check but I think I'll wait until tomorrow.

Approved! Very quick. We were there about 7, for a 7:30 appointment. Handed in our interview letter, got another form to fill out, started betting on if we would get called in before our lawyer got there or not - lawyer arrived about 7:35, we were called in at 7:40. She (Officer Lynn Phillips) swore us in, had me put our new address on the form (I had filled it out with our current address, but we are moving in 2 days) while she asked Fred some questions - how we met, what my birth date was. Then my turn - what was Fred's birth date, did I have any kids (said no, except for Fred's children being my stepchildren), then some of the yes/no questions, and a couple more on my arrests (what they were for - DUIs, what years, result of the arrests, penalties and fines). Somewhere at the beginning she said "When I approve your application" and she told Fred from the get go that his had been approved. She looked at my passport, took the I-94, and said I was approved, but the doctor had not completely filled out the I-693, so have them finish it off and mail it back, and she would then have the green card processed. No discussion about the removal of conditions phase, like others had, but meh. And that was it. 15 minutes tops. No questions whatsoever about intent, which is what we were all worried about for many reasons - we were married and in the process of the CR-1 when I entered the US, the border guard in secondary had written "No EOS/COS" on my I-94, and I had overstayed.

On the way back home, we stopped at the doctor's and had them redo the I-693 and sent it off certified mail, so now, all I do is wait.

A side note: while we were waiting, watching people get called in (they start interviews at 7), one woman came out calling a name that looked very angry, and another called for their interviewee who wasn't there, but their lawyer was, and she got snippy with the lawyer, understandably. I mentioned that I hoped we did not get either of those. Of course, we got the second one - but she was great. My lawyer says that she is one of the smartest and most efficient IOs in the office, and she really was. She had obviously reviewed our file completely before our interview. Big thumbs up to Officer Lynn Phillips! good.gif

Thanks, Scientist! I guess it goes to show that intent really is a small thing nowadays. I mean, I did not have intent, but I figured I would have to prove it. kicking.gif

Hahaha, the section the doctor missed filling out was on my mental health? Coincidence? I think not! wacko.gif

lol.. I think we all have been a lil paranoid about it- I mean we dont know what to expect at the Interview so worrying was normal... I too am glad for the good news. I think we've had only one denial in our april filer (due to un-concurrent filing mistake)...

ALL THE BEST to the rest of filers
