We had our interview today at the NY office in Holtsville! The people there are the nicest ever!

We were approved on the spot, already got a stamp on my passport, as we leave on a trip tomorrow morning.

Couldn't be any happier with the way the USCIS managed our application.

We did it all by ourselves and everything went smoothly.

We got the best Valentine's present ever!

Good luck to everybody!

Congrats !! happy V day gift :D

Just checking in to see if any November AOS filers (from a work visa) are still waiting for an interview date like me? Its been 2.5 months since mine went to "ready for interview scheduling". I think it is because my local office is NYC Federal Plaza, but still, any clues as to whether this is completely abnormal or not would be good!

Thanks

Peter
