So you have your Interview scheduled already Leo7777, Congratz...... It seems that calling USCIS is effective to move your papers.....

Calling USCIS may or may not help. In our case, we were successful in getting the Tier 1 person to submit a Service Request.

I searched around and saw the below on official website.

So it seemed to me that they would not submit a Service Request for us, unless we could fit something into one of the categories. We were successful in doing so.

USCIS may expedite a petition or application if it meets one or more of the following criteria:

Severe financial loss to company or person

Emergency situation

Humanitarian reasons

Nonprofit organization whose request is in furtherance of the cultural and social interests of the United States

Department of Defense or national interest situation

USCIS error; or

Compelling interest of USCIS.

Interview went really well, I was a bit nervous because we don't have any children together and we got married in Vegas so we don't even have one single picture of the wedding. The wait at the waiting area was an hour. Our IO was very nice and asked basic questions reading off of the i 485 and i 130. No questions asked about our personal stuff. He askef for proofs of joint accounts and I had a whole packet full of apartment lease, cell phone bill, irs statements, bank statements and insurance. Took about 20 minutes max. At the end he said Congratulations and handed me a paper that said Congratulations adjustment of status was approved. =)

Hello Guys, I have been out of state for a while and became very busy lately. Although great news were received from USCIS for the past few days. Got an approval of I-130 and I-485 last sept 24, 2015, received through text messages and email, Later that evening, also received message that Card is already in production. Card was mailed in Sept 28 and received yesterday in the mail box, Sept 30. That one week period is super fast to process my AOS, although it took almost 7 months (218 days) to conclude my GC journey. Thank you Guys for all your sharing here especially to the Thread Starter, I've learned a lot from you.
