[aimeelouise 0]

Congrats Aimee, I know you have waited forever to hear back about your RFE. I too waited for over a month for news after sending in my RFE response and I know that wait isn't fun at all. I just had a good feeling that you would hear something this week.

BTW, your interview date falls on my wife's birthday-- so I hope it is a good day all round

Congrats to all of the other April filers who also have had good news regarding EAD production and interview dates; it looks like you guys are now moving pretty quickly for the most part.

Still Waiting...

I received the paper copy of my interview notice in the mail today.

I was slightly concerned by the second page which gives instructions to bring court-certified copies of any arrests, convictions, etc. until I figured that it was probably just a standard enclosure and not specific to me (I have never been arrested, detained, charged or convicted of anything, anywhere; not even a parking ticket).

[Alex and Sofya 7]

Wow it came very in a mail very fast. Good speed!

Hi Guys,

I am waiting for my EAD and Interview. I am getting a little concerned as we are having a 'wedding' ceremony (we got married legally in March) in the UK on the 28th July and I have a flight booked to the UK between 21st July and August 4th. Does anyone know if you can change the interview date if it falls between these dates?

Thanks

PD

You can reschedule your appointment if it comes on these dates.

You can reschedule your appointment if it comes on these dates.

You can, but you do NOT want to. Personally I would change my trip before I tried to change my immigration interview. I have seen several cases on VisaJourney of people who's cases got denied because they tried to reschedule the interview but for whatever reason it didn't go through the right channels and they got denied for not showing up to the interview.

Ours came with that same notice. I hope its standard; I just never heard anyone else mention it before when receiving their Interview Letters.

[Newbie608 103]

Just an fyi: I stopped receiving emails and texts after the first NOAs. And while the online updates are still happening, they're also late. The interview update said they sent me a letter on June 5. and when I received it on June 6, it said they had sent it on June 1. So if nothing's coming in in the way of texts, emails and updates, know that your NOAs might still be on their way to you!

To anyone who's waiting: Be strong! To everyone who got good news this week: Congrats!! And to everyone: Good luck! We're almost there.

Hey Coocoo,

How was ur biometric walk-in in milwaukee? Just wanna know Incase I choose to do that when my time comes around...

I am afraid that we would have to. We have a big wedding planned with plenty of guests coming all booked up. It wouldnt even be an option. I really hope that immigration would understand but am nervous about it

You can reschedule your appointment if it comes on these dates.

I really hope so. We only did it this way around to get a 'jump' on the whole process. Our intention was always to have the big wedding in the UK at the end of July.
