Please send us good vibes! I'm a bit of a nervous wreck. I don't suspect we'll have any problem, but of course, all I keep thinking about is a mis-crossed T, or an un-dotted i. UG!

It didn't help that our interview was scheduled just 8 weeks after we applied, haven't even received EAD or AP documents yet. It's a blessing I know, she should have her green card sooner than waiting months and months, but of course it was a scramble to get all the stuff ready, accounts with both our names and all that.

Then just last night realized that my original boarding passes from the first time I visited are still back in Manila, when my wife came, we had two full copies of that K1 stuff, and she brought the one with the 'copies'. I can't imagine they are going to ask to see that original boarding pass, but see, I just keep thinking 'maybe'!

lol.

I'll be so glad after tomorrow, and hopefully we won't have to deal with them for like two more years!

Thanks, I'm still waiting for the USCIS website to show the decision, I can't quite rest easy until I see that. Hoping in a few days it'll be done! Wishing everyone a speedy journey as well!

Website finally updated today to officially show green card in production! About 11 weeks from filing AOS paperwork to green card production. Figure 12 and it should be in hand. I'm so happy!

Also feel really bad for all the people who have been waiting so long, the system really isn't quite fair is it. The interview wasn't 'fun' but it was fairly painless, I'm glad we got an interview and a short schedule and not the long wait that some others have to deal with.

Best luck to everyone! Now I can relax and breath for 2 years!

Take a look at the ROC date calculator at the bottom of my signature block, it may be of use to you. :thumbs:
