Not a single word for us on I-485 since initial acceptance letter in September. Did Bio-metrics in October.

For those still in limbo like us, did you contact USCIS? I wasn't sure to contact main office or my local branch... and how long to wait before asking for action. It's almost 6 months without any word!

Thanks all.

Good luck and vibes to all those waiting! And congrats to those who made it through the process already!

Same boat as you guys are in. We are still waiting and our FO is only at March 16, 2015 as of Dec 31, 2015. It hasn't changed since then. So it appears it will be a long wait for us. My wife did receive her EAD & AP & NJ DL so for now that's enough to keep us at bay until we start making inquiries. It is frustrating but we are being patience about it since it's out of our control.

Good Luck and keep us posted on your journey.

Sorry to hear about all of you in limbo. I hope that your Green Cards will come soon. I always called the USCIS, never hurts to ask.

Romans 8:28 - And we know that all things work together for the good of those who love God: those who are called according to His purpose.
Hebrews 11:6 - And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.

We received the green card in the mail yesterday.

I noticed that they put my wife's country of birth as United States, it should be the Philippines.

Why would they put the United States - wouldn't she automatically be a U.S. citizen if she were born here?

Should I can USCIS to have it changed or should I not worry about it?

Thanks, and good luck to everyone else.

Thank you :) to be honest we weren't at all stressed about the adjustment of status or waiting period or anything..

I think most people have received their Work Permit so are keeping themselves busy with their job/looking for a job..

I know for our situation, my wife has a new job so we really did not even think of the adjustment of status, we were like.. "whenever it happens, it happens"

Hi! I want to share my experience about the interview. We had our interview in Chatsworth LA.

We arrived half an hour earlier, pass the security check (the officer made me remove my heels and walk on the freezing cold floor) then we left the interview letter in a box and waited to be called.

An hour later the officer call my number and as soon as he saw us he started to walk so fast, we caught up to him and entered the little office.

He made us swear and began the interview asking for documents (my ID and Visa) and my husband's ID, he asked him how we've met, where does he work and our year of marriage. Then he asked me if I'd ever been pregnant, what i was doing back in my Country and asked me if I can show him my SSN. He then asked for my husband's SSN.

He asked us repeatedly where do we live and ask if he can take a look to the photo album we brought.

Then the yes or no questions for me. Everything happened so fast, he was quite distant and didn't engage in any conversation beside the questions.

He explained that "they" need it to do another background check and that we needed to wait 45 days until a desicion

That was all.

Months of waiting resumed in almost 10 minutes.

He took photocopies of pictures and my ID's and shown us the exit.

For a couple of hours we were sad. We already have plans to move and travel and for me to visit my family and now we have to wait.

We had our interview in Friday, and by Monday morning I recieved a mail. The case was aproved on Friday! hours later the I130 was aproved and the card is in production letter.

On Wednesday a new email confirming that my card was being mailed.

We are so happy and now just waiting to have the actual card in hand.

I wish you all a smooth process and thank you for sharing your experiences.

Did you get your green card in the mail Rubynevada? Was it sent from Chatsworth office or somewhere else?

I got card was mailed notification yesterday but no tracking number and I want to have an idea when I might get it in the mail. Thanks!
