Hello People,

I filed and started my aos wait time since november 2014.

I don't know how long this usually takes but I've read a lot of timelines that estimates the process to be about 7 months.

I don't know if the problem is from my case or from Dallas field office.

Is there anyone suffering the wait time like me?

I need help.. its almost one year now, no interview letter, no response.

Is there anything I should do?

Ouch, don't despair. Dallas has been severely back logged since last year. I know an August 2014 filer from Dallas who had his interview almost around 9-10 months. It has nothing to do with your case just the field office.You're almost there, you'll definitely get your interview letter not long from now. Adjustment interviews can stretch from a few months up to a year though depending on the field office. Edited by Starkilla09

You're adjusting from an F-1?

Yes I am..

Okay.. Thanks.. I was really worried.. The process won't let me focus on other things.. My imaginations just sails towards the AOS process every minute. Thanks again

As stated, Dallas is extremely backlogged right now. Two months ago ago they were processing I-485s filed in September of 2014, so you will likely hear something within the next six weeks.
