I had the weirdest day. At around 2pm today, USCIS texted an update on my AOS. My Case Status indicated "New Card Being Produced" and again at around 9pm, I received another update. My Case Status is now reflecting "Case Was Approved". This is so weird because I never received a single update since biometrics. I didn't get a letter about interview exemption as well. Is this a glitch? Has this happened to anyone? Is My Case Status 100% reliable?

That's the normal progress, card produced and then case approved.

Most likely you'll get another one saying your card is mailed and then you'll get the card next.

They're not really sending out the interview exemption letter anymore.

I see. Thank you so much for the clarification. I feel quite relieved now. So I guess I'll just have to wait for the card to arrive? :dancing:

Got my bio letter Friday night on day like 81 since date of receipt... finally, tried walking today in Naperville, IL and got rejected so I drove an hour to another ASC and they were very nice, in and out within 20 mins. How long have people been waiting for there combo cards since biometrics? Looking for recent updates. Also, how long do I have to wait for the fingerprints to be in the system until I can try getting an expedite since my 90 days is on November 15?

That was weird, I tried calling to talk about the expedite but they told me my car was in production as of today. That's a relief. They said it could take up to 60 days.. has it been taking that long?

We did our biometric last October 26 and received another letter saying we need to do another one on Nov.10. Called them and they said we have to do it again saying they might need clarification. And yes Naperville, IL facility does not allow walk-in. The guard will highlight the number to call for re-schedule .

Does anybody know if Trump being elected could affect us? Or do you think we are safe because we are already on the process? I read that he wanted to stop green cards... I'm also on a same sex marriage, so I hope he doesn't overturn it cause he also said that...

Here is an article linking to what Donald Trump said during the debate referenced above. In general, I wouldn't trust this as a source, but in this case the article does present a tidbit of factual information that is relevant:

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/03/10/3285521/

Donald Trump is referring to halting production of the H1B green card.

Now, for my opinion:

Donald Trump is well aware and sympathetic toward marrying someone from a foreign country. After all, he has done this himself a couple of times. That said, his threats specifically targeted work based immigration and not family based immigration. On top of this, he doesn't have the power to do anything about gay marriage or relationships. (Nor do I think he personally desires to - although his supreme court nominees may)

I don't think you have anything to worry about.
