HI

Has anyone been in a similar situation as mine?

I filed for my 130/AOS on July 13 and on NOV 13th I will be completing my four months of process.

I have my ceremony coming up on Dec 28th in my home country and I need to be there at least a month before so that I can do my shopping and stuff.

But my AOS thingy is a big suspense to me. (My case is still in initial review..no transfer or anything)

I am from NY and so I am estimating that my field office is NYC. According to the USCIS website the processing time for NYC field office is showing up as FEB 16 as of AUG 2011

So if I tally, they will start working on my process in November and I might get a interview in Dec, which is not quiet possible for me.

SO what do you guys suggest? SHould I just go ahead and use my AP to book my tickets after Nov 13th (i.e completion of 4 months) or wait till I get the interview letter at least.

Your I-129f was approved in 5 days from your NOA1 date.

Your interview took 67 days from your I-129F NOA1 date.

AOS was approved in 2 months and 8 days without interview.

ROC was approved in 3 months and 2 days without interview.

I am a Citizen of the United States of America. 04/16/13

If you have not overstayed your previous visa and you have a valid AP, you can travel with that while your AOS is pending. However, you have to make sure someone is checking your mail in case the interview letter comes while you are gone, and you have to be prepared to fly back for the interview if it happens to be scheduled for the period you were going to be in India.

what status you get when you call in to the national USCIS hotline?

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

1. Have you received NOA2 for I-130? If not, there is no sign you will receive I-485 interview letter soon.

2. If your I-130 was approved (NOA2), and as you said priority day on NYC Field Office for I-485 is Feb 26, 2011 (that means they are processing I-485 applications, which were filed before or on 02/26/2011) and your I-485 was filed on July 13, 2011 (your priority day is 07/13/2011) => YOU HAVE TO WAIT AT LEAST ANOTHER 4 MONTHS for your turn to come.

So I believe you should use your AP document to travel back and don't worry about any appointment letter any soon. Good luck.
