I sent in my docs April 10, arrived on the 12 of this year. Got my biometrics done early - originally scheduled for May 22 but succesfully walked in April 24.

We got our interview notice a couple days ago - for June 24th.

Haven't gotten any RFE or anything. And the processing for my 765 seems stalled. when I go to the USCIS website to check on the cases there's nothing new besides "Initial Review" Same for 130, it says Initial Review. Only the 485 now says Testing and Interview.

I thought the 765 would go faster or show some signs of actvity before we even got our interview, but now even the interview is scheduled.

Is this normal?

Why do you think EAD is stalled? I hasn't even been 2 months yet on the EAD. Did you know that the processing time is 3 months? Did you know that early biometrics does NOT speed up your case?

You're lucky enough to have your I-485 processing go very quickly. Your I-765, which is a separate and parallel process, isn't going any more or less quickly than standard.

I guess I was comparing to some other cases around here that filed almost at the same time as me. But if you think it's going at a normal pace then I'm glad. Thanks for your comments!

Hi cbunny,

We are in the exact same position. Our AOS is at testing and interview but everything else has stayed the same.

It shouldn't be cause for alarm though.

Good luck on your journey!

This happened to me, two weeks late the I-765 and I-131 approved, although I'm yet to actually receive them in hand - but they are on their way.
