My case appears to be progressing after the RFE. Does anyone know how long a case sits in the "testing and interview" prior to the interview being scheduled? It probably varies between offices but I'm not working so tracking this is sort of my full-time job right now ;)

It depends on the office, they vary a lot so you could look at other people timeline on VJ that had the interview at the same office as yours.

So thankful for this forum. I feel like we're all in this together!

I feel the same way. The advice is great, but having people going through similar situations helps so much.

Agreed!!

Just applied my socail security number this mỏning and they said the immigarion have not update my case yet, so I have to wait 4 weeks. Does any one experience this before?

I read this in a different thread a while ago. I think some people faced the same issue with SS and DMV too. Maybe you should wait a couple days and go back or call USCIS to update your case?! I really don't know, Im just giving ideas. I hope someone who faced the same problem would reply to you. Try to post your question in a new thread and see how it goes.

I was really bored and I had nothing to do, so for my office I checked the profile of the people that got approved recently and went to their posts to see if they have a signature with their timeline...there are not many people from my office, but I saw that it took about a month to received their appointment notice after testing and interview update. Also, the appointment was set for a month after they received their notice...if you are that bored you can do the same with your office tongue.png

Standard operating procedure for such things is to dress like you are going to a job interview.
