Hi everyone! Just got our interview date in the post at long last and very excited- but we have (domestic) flights out of Colorado that same day. The interview is scheduled for 8.15am and our flights are at 5.30- the airport is about an hour away, we don't have checked bags and will check in online so we'll probably be wanting to leave the USCIS building at about 2.30-3pm...It's going to be way, way more money than we can afford to cancel or change our flights. Does anyone have experiences of wait times on the day so we can know what to expect?

Thank you!

I wouldn't worry too much. USCIS is pretty good about keeping things timely, so you should begin the interview around the scheduled time. With most interviews lasting 10-30 minutes, you should be out of there around 9:30ish at the latest. Plenty of time to catch your flight.

Good Luck!

Thanks everyone, I feel much better about it now! My priority date is April 1st 2016.

Please update your timeline--this will help other applicants who is waiting for the interview in Denver office. Thank you!

------

I-130 (as part of IR-5 process) - USCIS (Nebraska Service Center)

06/09/14 - sent I-130

06/14/14 - NOA 1

11/14/14 - NOA 2 (5 months)

AOS (Local Office: Denver)

03/24/15 - AOS packet sent via USPS Priority Mail (I-485, I-765 & I-131 w/ approved I-130)

03/26/15 - package delivered according to USPS website

04/01/15 - email notifying the AOS package has been received

04/02/15 - an AOS fee withdrawn from a bank account

04/09/15 - received hard copies of all three NOAs (NOAs dated 04/01/15)

04/28/15 - Biometrics

05/08/15 - online status changed to "Case is ready to be scheduled for an interview"

05/18/15 - online status changed to I-765 approved-wait the card in the mail (no change for I-131) (80 days)

05/19/15 - received EAD/AP in the mail

05/28/15 - online status changed to "As of June 28, case is ready to be scheduled for an interview." This is the second time of such change since 05/08/15.

07/05/15 - online status changed to "As of July 5, case is ready to be scheduled for an interview." How many times are they going to update that status, I wonder?

12/18/15 - still waiting!!! For almost 9 months now (261 days from AOS NOA, 234 days from Biometrics).

01/14/16 - submitted "out-of-normal processing time" inquiry and called USCIS that stated the case is still at NBC and "inquiry" should answer why there is such delay.

01/15/16 - 294 days since the AOS was received by the USCIS; 262 days from the biometrics.

01/28/16 - [day 309] received response to case status inquiry (processed on 01/23/15) - "your case is waiting to be scheduled for interview," so wait another 90 days [sigh].

02/21/16 - [day 332] interview scheduled for 03/24/16 [363 days from the receipt of petition].

02/24/16 - [day 363] AOS interview. Approval on the spot.
