Got combo card and approval notices on Friday!!! I have my interview tomorrow!!! I had to prepare another similar file to the one previously submitted, bringing originals, copies, and I think photos would be good--but, I have been married more than 20 years!!! Do I really need photos? Or copies of life insurance, property records and bank accounts should suffice???

Sure--it's a little blurry, but should be readable!

So you wouldn't have to bring the medical or the affidavit stuff because it was already submitted but everything else you have to bring copies and originals ?!

Because I didn't photocopy my entire application because I was dumb and got to excited therefore I have none of that I will bring my husband and co sponsors transcripts for the 2015 tax season though

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

but don't worry you'll get through it :luv:

I was given a copy of the I-693 and DS3025, so I'm attaching that + all the docs I submitted in the original packet (originals of everything I can get and copies)

I have the DS-3025 but since I came on K1 I didn't submit the I-693 or get a copy of my full medical. So I can bring the DS-3025 but I don't have really any of my affidavit stuff it seems that it's okay though.

My husband came on a K1 too--we got the I693 just in case the DS3025 wasn't enough, even though he had all the vaccines. Just bring whatever you have and you'll be good. I seriously doubt the adjudicator is going to ask for any of those documents though--they should already have the entire packet in front of them. It's just incase USCIS lost something.

Yeah those two say bring if they haven't already been submitted in brackets so I'm sure I'm okay just nervous/excited. I don't even know if I'm getting an interview yet but I like being prepared !

Hi fellow February filers, today marks the 69th day since my AOS/EAD/AP application was received.

I still haven't heard anything, last update was February 11.

I've read that many filers whose cases exceeded 75 days sent a service request but found it useless.

Many chose to ask for their congressman's help that gave them more favorable results.

Just a question, is it practical to start applying for a job right now so I can maybe receive a job offer to show the congressman's office?

I'm just so frustrated right now.

I'm tired of just staying at home all the time since I got here in December.

I also want to be able to help my partner with the increasing bills :cry:

Hope anyone could shed some light on this please.

I'm based in Anchorage, Alaska by the way.

Thank you in advance! Oh and congrats again for those who have gotten their EAD/Green cards already!
