It seems that things move pretty quickly for people adjusting from K1... is this really the case, or am I just being impatient? ha.

Got my notice to bring i-693 to interview, I hadn't sent it with the application. I'm so happy we didn't get an Rfe for it. Please God my Ead isn't far off, I need to work.

I had noticed that as well and I've wondered why it is seeming like that.

Ohhh this thing seems to be crawling!! I just feel K1 moves faster cause the documents are already verified and the process is more stern and hence when it transitions to AOS takes that much lesser time most of them and their marriage seems less likely to have raised eyebrows due to the sheer time....

Our NOA is the same as yours. We got a letter too, but saying if we got an interview to bring the medical and if we got a waiver for interview we would get an RFE. My husband did the medical in Jamaica. Ugh. Now we need to pay again for it. Keep me posted on your progress. ?

Got my notice to bring i-693 to interview, I hadn't sent it with the application. I'm so happy we didn't get an Rfe for it. Please God my Ead isn't far off, I need to work.

I got my AP approved the same day as the EAD was updated to "being produced". The electronic notifications are really slow for some reason.

I thought that the applications would progress slower for me because I am not on the K-1. I am adjusting from B-2 and it seems that it hasn't impacted my AP/EAD application at all.

At least it's easy to find timelines for you, i'm sure there's plenty more than in providence, RI.

It's not even on this website in the processing times schedule haha ><

But on the USCIS website it says they are at august last year, but really I have no clue what to expect at all!!

Something weird to note about my USCIS account. I got a text message letting us know about a status change on the EAD today but I kept checking throughout the day and the last status update was 2 days ago still. No email, only a text. It had me worried as the status update 2 days ago was that the card was mailed.
