My husband did his biometrics on November 3rd and his status updated on the USCIS website/mobile app that his "interview is ready to be scheduled" on November 10th. We have absolutely zero updates other than that and are getting pretty frustrated/concerned that we don't have the EAD/AP yet. No RFEs either.

I wrote a full detailed account of our AOS process, timeline, AP use, and interview on my blog. You can read it here.

Read our experience clearing immigration with an expired green card and extension letter here.

Just sent my RFE yesterday, I'll join the frustrated club ?? I wonder why they asked my husband's complete federal income tax for 2014, I already submitted his w2' with my aos packet! And definitely he is above poverty line!

Yes it's weird to me that they ask for information that they already have! It's annoying!

Just got a notice that the interview has been scheduled for Jan 19th 2016! She had her biometrics done on Nov 24th. We never had an update that the interview was ready to be scheduled. It went from fingerprint fee accepted directly to interview scheduled.

That's great! So it's about 2 months after the bio.. That was without RFE right,so maybe additional 1 month for us who get RFE.. ?
