Hi everyone, just an update on my AOS timeline. NOA for I-485, I-765 and I-131 were all on Feb 10th. Biometrics letter on Feb 20th and I did my biometrics on appointment date Mar 8th.

On the USCIS website my I-485 case has been updated (as of Mar 16th) to say "Case is ready to be scheduled for a interview" but no update on EAD/AP yet. Also no letter yet with interview date.

It's good that my case is being worked on I guess, but it could still be some time before I receive any cards or even have the interview.

That's great!!! Let us know when you get the interview letter.

Just a question

Did u send in tax for 2015?

No, we only completed our tax return last week.

I did however include a copy of my wife's W2 from her employer for the year.

:wacko::ph34r:

Hello thought I would update - had my biometrics appointment at the Pomona field office last Wednesday March 17th.

Was super quick because I had an appointment. Thanks to my fellow VJ posters I did comb my hair and put on make-up.

Now I am just waiting patiently. It's great to see the progress for my fellow filers.

Oh good. I did that too so hopefully that's enough!

K1, EAD/AP + AOS + ROC = 0 RFE's

 

Next step: Citizenship!

Oh shoot my husbands W-2 came the day after we sent out our package hopefully they won't gives us a hard time ?

On a side note just got home from my biometrics this morning scheduled for nine but I was there at 8:40 ish and they took me early easy peasy. Did a signature a bunch of fingerprints and a picture ??

Hold onto your hat its going to be a bumpy ride!!

Glad everyone's biometrics are going smoothly! It seems like the bulk of RFE's come in after the biometrics, so I'm hoping none of us get one....

I also did it online and I have been receiving letters to my new address since then.

Make sure that when you change the I-130, you do it under the petitioner's name (the US spouse).

The other forms are under the beneficiary's (immigrant) name.

right! Good thing you let me know or I would've stupidly put everything in my name. Thanks iPod :)

Just reporting on a successful biometrics appointment today at the Austin ASC Center. Appointment was at 9am and my wife was out by 9:30. Now on to waiting for what seems like an inevitable RFE for 2015 tax returns for both my and our co-sponsor. I also didn't include six months of pay stubs :(....ugh. So ready for this process to be over!
