This morning I wake up and wonder about the call I got yesterday from USCIS and if it was for real. I know there's scammers out there that pretend and all.

My case is bit unique in I'm changing my pending AOS from employment to marriage (see timeline below). During this process I got confused/frustrated and emailed some people to help me figure it out, look into my case. Last response I received was that my case was transferred to NBC from Nebraska and that meant I am being processed as a family based case and will be scheduled for interview etc. It also said since my case was out of NSC, my inquiry was being forwarded to appropriate office.

yesterday got a call (number showed)... and was a nice woman who identified working for USCIS and she just wanted to follow up on my case, see how much progress I'd made. Didn't ask me any personal info except to confirm my address so to send me a report on what is happening next. I gave my email address to speed up hearing back. She told me she was calling because of inquiry I'd placed and she was going to look further into it. she seemed to know all my back info on case.

so of course a part of me is like waking up and thinking...was it for real?

I know there are scammers out there but she didn't really ask for any info except mailing address to confirm why I hadn't gotten my interview notice/make sure I get it.

Well she didn't speak specific dates etc but knew in general that I had a pending AOS that I had requested converting and it was transferred to NBC. She asked if i'd gotten an interview date yet, which I hadn't. so she said she was going to look into it further and get back to me through mail (confirmed my addy) and then I told her to use my email to make it quicker. She was really nice. I got advise on if I should apply for EAD renewal in interim too. She knew what she was talking about...

I wish she'd given me some good news like "you're approved" :)

You know you can't be approved without an interview :P

In my dreams, yes I can :lol:

I can always dream..... One day all this will be past me.

Can't wait to be done with interview. My poor husband gets so frustrated when I talk about the steps, the process, USCIS (he said what is that, what are we doing now...). he fails to understand why it's that complicated. He wants me straight at citizenship lol. I spent more than half my life here legally and yet I still wait....funny process.... almost there. almost there....

Shouldn't your Filed for in your profile be Adjustment of Status (Pending)? An IR1/CR1 visa would mean you are currently outside the US.
