I would have thought you would get the same day oath since it's on Monday morning. Anyway, congrats!

Thank you, happyzac! smile.png I know... We (Hubby and I) were in fact, very disappointed that I wasn't able to take the oath ceremony yesterday. Oh well... 2 more days... yay! star_smile.gif

Congrats!

Thank you, happilycontent! smile.png

Maybe it means don't wait in the lobby/waiting area after your interview, they will send oath letter in the mail. At some places they will give you the oath letter after your interview, once you pass. So, perhaps they're just letting you know it will be sent via mail.

oh, and congrats!

ETA: I'm looking at my n-652 and I don't see that anywhere on this piece of paper. It doesn't say anywhere that a decision will be sent by mail, or do not wait for letter. There are only 2 boxes checked. One for you passed the test of English and US history and government, and then congratulations! your application has been recommended for approval. blah blah blah. How many papers did the IO give you?

Just to fill you in. I called again about my interview appointment today. I spoke to a different person than yesterday and she created an electronic request for me to get me the interview date. She said I should from them by October 16th. They do not know what they are doing. Everybody will tell you something else. Thanks Hobokenworkngman and Jay2Pnoy for your advises and informations. I will keep you posted about my process. B.

I was given only 1 paper.

I was also ticked on the 2 boxes as you were.

3rd tick is on bottom most right side, saying that don't wait for letter, results will be mailed.?!?

Got a text message ( but no email ) today that my case has been updated;

I have been scheduled for an upcoming oath and should be receiving a time and date soon....

Hopefully you'll get an update soon happilycontent!

PS I wonder if each different office has a quota or 'reserved seating' for the oath ceremony ........ and I wonder if I can ask for the November one: http://www.quietcannon.com/

I'm just barely realizing there are plenty of things wrong with my IO. Did yours get you to sign the back of your photo? Mine didn't. whistling.gif

I would not change or request an oath other than the one they're scheduling for you lol it will probably delay your case by a few months maybe more. I just read about people being scheduled to come back and sign the remaining things they weren't asked to do in the interview. With my luck that'll probably be me, and I'll probably be scheduled for the November/December oath. Is there a confirmed oath for November? Is it in Montebello?

I was given only 1 paper.

I was also ticked on the 2 boxes as you were.

3rd tick is on bottom most right side, saying that don't wait for letter, results will be mailed.?!?

There's only one box on the right side of the paper, it's at the very bottom and it says "see reverse" it isn't checked. On the backside it's general information about where my oath will take place and how to get there. Sorry, I have no idea why yours says that. Maybe here in California ours are different than there?

Just to fill you in. I called again about my interview appointment today. I spoke to a different person than yesterday and she created an electronic request for me to get me the interview date.

Hope you get some good news soon, brsko. Is your case very straight forward? I don't understand why they haven't scheduled you for interview yet. Have you talked to anyone else from NY about it? I think there are a couple from our due date.

Yup! Next time, when you have doubts and think things aren't right, when calling the customer service number, ask for tier 2 immigration officer, some service reps will ask too many questions, these guys see the same thing you see on the uscis.com website, it's a waste of time. Tier 2 are real immigration officers, they have full access to immigration cases.

Good luck!

I-485 Adjustment of Status

10/21/2000 - Entry as B2 visa, changed status to F1

07/25/2005 - Mom filed F2B

03/01/2007 - Filed AOS to Permanent Resident under 245(i) by virtue of Section 203(h)(3) of the Child Status Protection Act of 2001; Public Law 107-208 (CSPA). Automatic Conversion of F2B petition and Retention of Priority date of an F4 petition as derivative beneficiary of dad filed in 1982 by his sister (hereinafter referred to as the "Automatic Conversion and Retention" clause of the CSPA). With the help of a lawyer from Los Angeles - who sent lots of briefs and case laws previously cited by the Board of Immigration Appeals, and Federal Courts to support our arguments.

03/04/2007 - Notice of Action for AOS Received

03/31/2007 - Biometrics Appointment

06/--/2007 - Interviewed in Chicago, District Adjudicator unable to approve AOS outright as more time was needed to review our case arguments, will notify us of the decision.

08/03/2007 - Decision on AOS - "DENIED" on the basis that F2B petition filed by mom was not current. USCIS misconstrued the basis for eligibility for AOS. (Copy of F2B petition mom filed only submitted as evidence that I sought to acquire status as a permanent resident within one year of the availability of the visa (F4 visa current on 12/2004), a requirement for seeking relief under CSPA and INA 203(h)(3))

08/28/2007 - Filed Request for Reconsideration of Decision on Adjustment of Status Application Based on Service (USCIS) Error, that filing for AOS eligibility was based on dad's 1982 petition, that CIS made an error in determining eligibility. (Motion to Reconsider on Form I-290B was filed without a fee, lawyer argued due to the fact that basis for AOS was erred by the Service)

01/24/2008 - Motion to Reconsider/Appeal Rejected by the USCIS District Adjudicator in Chicago due to non-payment of fee.

02/15/2008 - Re-submitted Motion to Reconsider Denial of AOS to Permanent Resident on Form I-290B, Notice of Appeal to the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO), Washington, DC.

02/19/2008 - USCIS received re-filed Motion to Reconsider with a fee of $585. Motion to Reconsider was later transferred to the Administrative Appeals Unit (AAU) in Chicago, IL.

07/28/2008 - Motion to Reconsider Denial of Adjustment on Form I-290B was reconsidered. USCIS Director in Chicago in its own motion submitted a Motion to Reopen, to reopen the case in its entirety. USCIS Director requested for 2nd interview and biometrics (after I sent tons of inquiries to the US Senators Barack Obama and Richard Durbin representing Illinois)

08/02/2008 - 2nd Biometrics Appointment

08/18/2008 - Dad filed another F2B petition requesting F2B conversion from F4 under CSPA and retention of his priority date of 1982. (CSPA decisions and case laws with BIA, Federal Courts and Court of Appeals for the 5th and 9th Circuits do not require that petitioners on later filed F2B petitions be the same as the beneficiary of the original petition, in my case dad was the beneficiary of an F4, but USCIS stance on conversion is that it does not apply to other immigration petitions except F2A and it should not be considered automatic in nature, therefore filing is necessary). A new F2B petition to the derivative beneficiary of the original petition would not have been necessary as afforded by the Act, but the USCIS does not conform to its automatic conversion clause as was on the Act.

09/05/2008 - Email Notice on Adjustment of Status "APPROVAL." (without 2nd interview as originally requested on CIS letter when decided to reopen the case). {Approved AOS based on a hard fought CSPA Automatic Conversion of my F4 derivative status to F2B and Retention of dad's Priority Date of 1982 (therefore making the F2B petition current having retained dad's PD). Law that the government decided to ignore for more than a decade now since the Act was enacted in 2001 signed by President Bush. (The lawyer who represented my case before the District Office Director in Chicago was from the same law firm in Los Angeles who sued the government, in a class action, due to its restrictive interpretation of CSPA denying benefits to those who are otherwise beneficiary of the law, those children of intending immigrants who aged out due to no fault of their own. The law firm was successful in overturning Federal Court ruling in Los Angeles when it appealed the class action to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, En Banc decision.) The government then appealed the decision En Banc of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals (which basically entitled "aged outs", or those derivative beneficiariess of any family based, employment based, diversity visa categories, who turned over 21 yrs of age, to join their parents upon receiving permanent residency status) to the Supreme Court, conjoined Federal Courts decisions out of the 2nd and 5th Circuit Courts of Appeals. PENDING before the Supreme Court, anticipating decision or ruling in 2014.}

Hi Happilycontent.

Straight forward case. Everything was very smooth and fast. This is the first bump on the road. I wouldnt even care, but I want to go to Europe for 6 weeks in December and I am worried that I will have my interview scheduled around the time I will be in Europe. As I know my luck. I will keep you guys posted. B.

Congrats Irma... we topped the leader board in the Phoenix filers...

USC, finally!! =)

I-485 Adjustment of Status

10/21/2000 - Entry as B2 visa, changed status to F1

07/25/2005 - Mom filed F2B

03/01/2007 - Filed AOS to Permanent Resident under 245(i) by virtue of Section 203(h)(3) of the Child Status Protection Act of 2001; Public Law 107-208 (CSPA). Automatic Conversion of F2B petition and Retention of Priority date of an F4 petition as derivative beneficiary of dad filed in 1982 by his sister (hereinafter referred to as the "Automatic Conversion and Retention" clause of the CSPA). With the help of a lawyer from Los Angeles - who sent lots of briefs and case laws previously cited by the Board of Immigration Appeals, and Federal Courts to support our arguments.

03/04/2007 - Notice of Action for AOS Received

03/31/2007 - Biometrics Appointment

06/--/2007 - Interviewed in Chicago, District Adjudicator unable to approve AOS outright as more time was needed to review our case arguments, will notify us of the decision.

08/03/2007 - Decision on AOS - "DENIED" on the basis that F2B petition filed by mom was not current. USCIS misconstrued the basis for eligibility for AOS. (Copy of F2B petition mom filed only submitted as evidence that I sought to acquire status as a permanent resident within one year of the availability of the visa (F4 visa current on 12/2004), a requirement for seeking relief under CSPA and INA 203(h)(3))

08/28/2007 - Filed Request for Reconsideration of Decision on Adjustment of Status Application Based on Service (USCIS) Error, that filing for AOS eligibility was based on dad's 1982 petition, that CIS made an error in determining eligibility. (Motion to Reconsider on Form I-290B was filed without a fee, lawyer argued due to the fact that basis for AOS was erred by the Service)

01/24/2008 - Motion to Reconsider/Appeal Rejected by the USCIS District Adjudicator in Chicago due to non-payment of fee.

02/15/2008 - Re-submitted Motion to Reconsider Denial of AOS to Permanent Resident on Form I-290B, Notice of Appeal to the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO), Washington, DC.

02/19/2008 - USCIS received re-filed Motion to Reconsider with a fee of $585. Motion to Reconsider was later transferred to the Administrative Appeals Unit (AAU) in Chicago, IL.

07/28/2008 - Motion to Reconsider Denial of Adjustment on Form I-290B was reconsidered. USCIS Director in Chicago in its own motion submitted a Motion to Reopen, to reopen the case in its entirety. USCIS Director requested for 2nd interview and biometrics (after I sent tons of inquiries to the US Senators Barack Obama and Richard Durbin representing Illinois)

08/02/2008 - 2nd Biometrics Appointment

08/18/2008 - Dad filed another F2B petition requesting F2B conversion from F4 under CSPA and retention of his priority date of 1982. (CSPA decisions and case laws with BIA, Federal Courts and Court of Appeals for the 5th and 9th Circuits do not require that petitioners on later filed F2B petitions be the same as the beneficiary of the original petition, in my case dad was the beneficiary of an F4, but USCIS stance on conversion is that it does not apply to other immigration petitions except F2A and it should not be considered automatic in nature, therefore filing is necessary). A new F2B petition to the derivative beneficiary of the original petition would not have been necessary as afforded by the Act, but the USCIS does not conform to its automatic conversion clause as was on the Act.

09/05/2008 - Email Notice on Adjustment of Status "APPROVAL." (without 2nd interview as originally requested on CIS letter when decided to reopen the case). {Approved AOS based on a hard fought CSPA Automatic Conversion of my F4 derivative status to F2B and Retention of dad's Priority Date of 1982 (therefore making the F2B petition current having retained dad's PD). Law that the government decided to ignore for more than a decade now since the Act was enacted in 2001 signed by President Bush. (The lawyer who represented my case before the District Office Director in Chicago was from the same law firm in Los Angeles who sued the government, in a class action, due to its restrictive interpretation of CSPA denying benefits to those who are otherwise beneficiary of the law, those children of intending immigrants who aged out due to no fault of their own. The law firm was successful in overturning Federal Court ruling in Los Angeles when it appealed the class action to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, En Banc decision.) The government then appealed the decision En Banc of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals (which basically entitled "aged outs", or those derivative beneficiariess of any family based, employment based, diversity visa categories, who turned over 21 yrs of age, to join their parents upon receiving permanent residency status) to the Supreme Court, conjoined Federal Courts decisions out of the 2nd and 5th Circuit Courts of Appeals. PENDING before the Supreme Court, anticipating decision or ruling in 2014.}

My wife's interview was today at 11 AM and she passed with flying colors! dancin5hr.gifdancin5hr.gifdancin5hr.gifdancin5hr.gif

I accompanied her and her interview was at the Long Island City USCIS office in Queens in NYC. We got there ~ 10:20 (her scheduled time was 11 AM) or so and were shuttled to a waiting room on the 1st floor where her fingerprints and photo was taken (for ID purposes I guess). They also scanned her green card. Then we waited for another 10-15 min and were shuttled to the 2nd floor which is where the interviews take place. I waited in a large room with many other folks and after about 1/2 hr of waiting, my wife was called in. I asked if I could accompany, but was politely gestured as no. The interview lasted ~ 15 min and was very very basic. Questions were - how many in house of reps etc etc (sorry my wife couldnt remember the exact questions), but were very easy. The only things checked were her passport and green card (we took everything - my naturalization certificate, my passport, our tax returns, bank statements, mortgage statements etc etc, just in case she was asked to produce proof of our marriage and cohabilitation), but nothign got asked. She was asked if she could come back within an hour to pick up the oath ceremony letter. So we went and had lunch and my wife went back in after an hour, waited for ~ 20 min and got her letter.

Oath ceremony is scheduled for OCTOBER 18th Friday at 8:30 AM in the brooklyn court house! dancin5hr.gifdancin5hr.gifdancin5hr.gif

Please update!

Congrats to everyone who passed their interviews and good luck to those pending!
