Just came back from AoS interview. It was very simple & smooth. The officer said everything looks fine but will review our file to see if he had forgotten anything. Hopefully will hear our approval today itself.

AOS approved today @ Los Angeles. No issues at all. Pretty smooth process from K1 application back in November thru to approval.

I think we were rubber-stamped before the interview as we were called in early and approved and out the door before 9am.

Congrats!

Congrats to all of you guys, i just received my SSN card today labeled with a (valid for work only with DHS authorization) is it this normal?

I thought whatever card i'd receive it'll be a normal card ?

how can i change it to a normal SSN without that label ?

Hi, what you have now is a working permit, an authorization to work, so your SSN will have it, but you will only be able to get a new one without restriction when you get your GC, if I were you, I wouldn't bother about it, and wait till I get my GC.

When my husband got his ssn, the card he has said the same thing. They told him once he gets his permit to go back and it would remove that wording. Well he did, but in the mail he got the same card as the first one. So maybe its something internal??
