EAD and AP were approved on October 16th! I received emails about the approvals yesterday - YAY! I got the approvals without the need for a biometrics appointment. Thank God!

Congrats!

Hello guys,

I just received a letter from USCIS indicating a potential interview waiver AND a delay of 6 months on my application from the date of the letter (october 14)... Because of quote workload factors not related to your case...

Wow - seems like it processed faster if you don't get an interview waver!

Has anyone from Buffalo NY heard anything about an interview yet? I'm on day 112 and nothing yet.

Neuroticbell, hi --

My local office is Buffalo too, but I thought you were adjusting from non-immigrant visa? (As am I.) I have concluded that the process takes place on a sufficiently different timeline from those adjusting from K-1. (As one example, NPIWs are common for K-1 adjusters and virtually unheard of for those from non-immigrant visas.) I still look at progress updates here, but I wish our other thread was more active since it would be more informative for our type of cases.

But anyway -- to your question: no, I have also not heard anything, but am not even waiting with bated breath. Buffalo is behind (my estimate is that they are currently processing applications from mid-February) and has traditionally been at 6+ months of processing time. On top of it they are moving to a new locations part of this and next week! See here: http://www.uscis.gov/about-us/find-uscis-office/field-offices/new-york-buffalo-field-office. I am sure this has impacted things additionally, even if not too much. For me it's been 106 days since receipt of application and 74 since receipt of RFE response and I will feel lucky if we get notice for an interview before the end of the year.

I hope I am wrong and we both get a pleasant surprise soon, of course. :)

My interview was cancelled last Wednesday and today I receive a notification saying that my new interview date is November 23rd. I'm wondering should I still go to the first interview date?

I don't see the sense for you to go because it was reschedule and I don't think your file will be available for the I/O to adjudicate. Just my opinion still maybe others have a better answer. It must be a reason why it was reschedule.

Thank you for the info! And yes, I'm adjusting from J1. Honestly, as long as I get my green card by next spring so i can go home to see my family, I'll be ok! Having a full time job makes this waiting way more bearable! Keep me posted with your case though and I will do the same!

Had my interview on Friday October 23, 2015 and my I-130 was approved after I was only asked three question. I however got a Request for Evidence for my I-485 because the I-693 wasn't completed properly by the Doctor. So upset but what can I do but go back to the Doctor to have it done properly and mailed it back to my Field Office in Hialeah.

It's hard to say anything if you don't have your timeline or signature filled out. The processing time depends on, whether or not you had RFE. For example, my EAD was approved in 102 days. But I received RFE. After I submitted RFE it took them exactly 3 weeks to produce my combo card.
