Our timelines are very similar!

We changed to Testing and Interview (as you can see) and no interview date yet. ClockWatch2.gif

I don't know how much longer we have to wait for an interview. cray5ol.gif

Oh yes ... very similar timelines.

I'm trying not to stress out or anything, because the wait is just part of the process, but it's hard when people that filed after you already have their interview dates.

Hopefully we'll both get good news in the mail very soon :)

So, after notification that my change of address was completed I noticed that all of my statuses went back to Initial Review. I panicked a bit before reading the forum and realized this happens to everyone after a COA.

My wife hasn't been home in 11 months and she's heading home in a week's time for 3 weeks. We were really worried when we got the notification that our status was changed to testing and interview. It seems that people generally receive appointments for 1 month after the notification, but it can also be longer. Looks like we're out of that danger zone, plus with the change of address to busy Chicago, it may be a bit of a wait!

A bit impatient for the notification but we have a super fast EAD approval so we don't really have any right to complain!

On a positive note, my wife got her social security card in the mail yesterday! So far all of our interaction with the Federal government has been super positive! We're going for her license tomorrow, let's see how local government functions in Chicago ;)
