Are you kidding me?? Its going to be a year now in another 5 days and they still don't know about my case. Wonder, what it would take them to give a clear answer. Also, I can't get through Tier 2 from last 3 days as schedule a callback but i never received a call from them this week....

The word disgusting comes to mind. #USCISyoustink

Hello all. Today my husband's case status updated to new card production. We have been waiting since March 2014 (NOA of March 10) so it's just 5 days shy of a full year. We received the notice for potential waiver on June 27, 2014. I filed a service request online last week and was waiting on a response. Hopefully everyone will get their cards soon!

Congratulations on your green letter day.

Another early March filer. Today's token approval....

My AOS card is on its way. Just got my delivery confirmation number and its sent priority mail. From Friday to today a lot of movement

Hi,

I'm in NC, on Mar 5, 2015 I received the letter about the potential interview waiver and the approx. 6 months delay.....that really worried me I thought it was something to do with the funding of the DHS that's been on the news recently, then I found this forum.

What's strange is my friend (living 10mins from me) filed for AOS just a week before me and received her GC late Feb 2015, it only took her a little more than 4 months. She was originally on a tourist visa to visit her bf, overstayed a year, got married and then applied for AOS through a lawyer. How come I started way earlier than her, followed the correct steps, yet receive notice for a 6 months delay? Really doesn't make any sense to me.

I was wondering, if I have AP and leave the country for vacation will that be a problem? I'm not sure if the AP can only be used for emergency, studies or work.

In case my case is forgotten, how do you get in contact with the department/person actually handling the case? I've read about incidences where people spoke to a higher level officer or could expedite their case. When I call I can only reach people who are repeating exactly the same case status that I have access to online already and it can be a 30min wait to actually speak to a person.

I'd greatly appreciate any insight on this!!

Sept 2013 applied for K1 in Hong Kong

Oct 2014 filed for AOS

Mid Feb 2015 received my EA and AP combo card

Man, this really bugs me!! Makes me wish wed just worked the system too. Such bullshit. ?

[Tina and Johan 206]

Congratulations. It would seem that a year is the new black.

Enjoy a well deserved rest from USCIS.

I hope not! We will be out of the country when our year anniversary comes around. Sure will be interesting getting back in the country without a working AP or green card in hand. ?

As the adage goes, no good turn goes unpunished.

When a society turns a blind eye toward and rewards people who enter the country and/or stay in the country illegally and at the same time punishes (and yes this is punishment, plain and simple) people who do the right things and play by the rules, then that society is in trouble..

I feel so desparate about getting GC...Hope was coming and has gone month on month....

I saw your timeline and really wish your GC get approved in this month

You'll be leaving the country without AP if you don't have your green card by then? Just want to clarify, because it's not a good idea to do that.
