I don't think Georgia had any tone but informative :-) This is copied from the instructions for i485: "You must submit a completed Form G-325A if you are between 14 and 79 years of age."

Hey guys, does anyone know around how long it takes for the i-131 to come back with a decision? Just because my husband wanted to see his family for Christmas and we filed it, but we aren't sure if we should buy tickets yet or not. :(

The general answer is between 60 and 90 days, but that's not a guarantee. It's usually just better to wait, or at least take out travel insurance that lets to reschedule or cancel your flight if you do book before you hear back.

Forever wishing for an eye-roll reaction.

Tomorrow we will do an early walk-in for the fingerprints in Atlanta Office.

We'll forget about this journey for more than 30 days.

I hope my wife gets her work permit by Mid Nov. I'm tired of working 2 damn jobs.

Good luck on the walk it, that's what we want to do, especially if his appointment is set for the week, when my office will be short staffed.

Hey guys, does anyone know around how long it takes for the i-131 to come back with a decision? Just because my husband wanted to see his family for Christmas and we filed it, but we aren't sure if we should buy tickets yet or not. :(

It might take three months, hopefully a little shorter (seems like it's currently averaging around 65-75 days for decision, then add some days to get the card in the mail). I'm hoping to go back home for Xmas too, but not taking it for granted.

If it isn't difficult, it isn't worth it.

Sorry didn't mean to shout lol just don't want people to get confused.

And no technically they're not. They are privately own contractors that help with biometrics, not one immigration officer work there, and no one there works for either USCIS or the department of Homeland Security.

I don't think your information is accurate. At least for my location, I'll be going to the same location as the GC interviews are held (by USCIS employees, obvi).

Detroit, it's a USCIS field office. What were the addresses of the offices you attended? I'm curious now.

Well, I just found out by reading another post about RFEs for the I-864, that I will most likely be receiving an RFE. Turns out, the I-864 at the last page has a section for additional info and it automatically prints the sponsor's name there. I deleted the name there because it made it look like there was additional info - which there isn't. To my surprise, I should have double check the form again but when you delete the name from the additional info section it automatically deletes the name from anther place in the form where it asks for sponsor's name. Somebody got an RFE for that sooo I'll be expecting an RFE now :(
