AOS still pending ( filed 8 mos ago), hubby just enlisted in

[Mikaela_jan 1]

First of all, I want to salute all our military men and their families for all the sacrifices they made for this country.

I've been here in visajourney, but my first time to post in military immigration column. I came here last June and married to the most wonderful man. Last August, we filed my AOS, and until now, it is still in acceptance stage. My hubby has been wanting to join the air force, and even though, I am quite anxious about it, I learn to trust God for everything. I want to support my hubby in everything that he does, and wants the best for him. Anyway, just today, we learned that in a couple of weeks, he will go for the basic training and go straight to technical school. All in all, he'll be away for almost 5 months. We cried together, we're just worried for each other, feeling crazy about being away for few months.. but I am happy for him... I just don't know what to do when he left. I thought I am prepared, but I guess, I am not..

Anyway, thank you for understanding what i feel. I have the following queries about our situation:

1) Is there any way we could speed up this AOS application? Its already 8 months, and we didn't hear anything. I want to go home while my hubby is away. I believe it is not advisable to get out the country while the application is pending. My hubby doesn't want me too, he scared that we might reapply for any paperwork and another waiting.

2) Since my hubby is leaving his job, do we need to inform the USCIS about it? when is the best time?

3) If for example, we will be called for the interview and my husband is in the training, what shall i do?

4) And since I will not be able to go home, I am thinking of staying for few months in my friend in another state, I just cant bear to stay in the house alone, do you think this is fine, in relation to my pending application?

Thank you so much for all help, I do appreciate it a lot. We are just quite lost, but I know, in God's time, everything will fall into its proper place.

I suggest you to call the USCIS and ask them about that, if it doesn't work then ask your hubby to call the senate and tell him/her about that. If you move, you should let the USCIS know.

Has you husband enlisted yet? I would have him call the USCIS and talk to a tier 2 about his enlistment and what information he needs to provide to them. It may be possible to speed things up a little bit so that he won't be gone during basic or tech school.

I can see that you have you EAD and AP so you can leave the country if you have an active AP but make sure you can make it back for an interview ASAP.

Personally I wouldn't leave because your interview could be any day now. Baltimore if processing Aug 20th for the I-485. https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/processingTimesDisplay.do;jsessionid=bacJX2W-cdCU556nWrL4t When your husband calls the USCIS about his enlistment he should also put in a service request to find out what is taking so long for your AOS.
