Is your husband good looking like jailbait? I know I was and since I looked a certain way, I was interviewed for green card in 1997 but my file was placed in a "security check" but I didn't know that till they called me for a 2nd interview in 2007 and I didn't get my green card till almost 10 years after the first interview.

Just be patient.. I know it was very hard for me but this is all true.

im not just saying this because he is my husband, but he is very good looking. He is constantly told he has gorgeous eyes. LOL but yes it is extremely long wait. i just dont want him to be with out work until he receives his green card. It took a while for him to actually get a decent job and he has slowly moved his way up the ranks to be where he is at now. Im PRAYING he gets his work authorization renewal SOON!!

thanks for the response.

Finally got my welcome letter and permanent resident card together in the mail today!

I got the shock of my life, because all this time my status online didn't change.

I didn't get interview waiver, and no interview schedule either all this time.

Online status was "Fingerprint fee received" for this whole year.

So, I sent renewal application for EAD so I don't lose my job.

Then I called USCIS over a month ago, Tier 2 officer said he put in a request for me as my case is pending beyond processing times.

After no updates still, I wrote to NY congresswoman.

Then I called USCIS again this past Wednesday, another Tier 2 officer said, "Your welcome letter was sent 3 days ago." My reaction was, "What? Can you say that again please? I've been checking website yesterday and my status online still says Fingerprint fee received." He said, "So sorry, that website is not always updated."

Then just a few minutes ago I get a text from USCIS that my case status has been updated. LOL... I can laugh now, that I am not worrying to death.

Hubby and I are so happy and relieved to have this part of the journey done with.

This is an awesome first wedding anniversary present!

Finally we can make good travel plans and do some overdue trips

Thanks to VisaJourney for all the filing information, I was able to file by myself without needing a lawyer

Sending Thank You to congresswoman in case they were the cause for my approval.

And then, ROC in 2 years!

Good luck to any other June 2014 filer who is waiting, your GC is coming soon!

Congratulations!

Same thing for me, no notification, no sms, and it just came in the mail.

The notice date is the actual date on the green card too when residency begins so March 30, 2017 is the day you start removal of conditions.
