Aaaannd finally i got my interview letter too for exactly 1 month later, Jan 22, 2018. One thing i did notice is that the letter came from NBC and not from local Minnesota office. What about others ? Did you people get it from NBC too ? or local office.

The interview went well in my opinion, we were separated I, the applicant was interview first followed by my wife with me present. There was two IO one appeared to be in training .All answers matched and I was told it looks approvable however a another background needs to conducted . The wait continues

 Ongratuiarions for completing the interview, I have observed that in Minnesota office others have also gone through secondary checks, I wonder if it’s common for this field office ?

 

hopefullu your case will move forward very soon. Wishing you all the best and happy holidays.

Best of luck with your IV

Hi everybody! My aos is pending for one year now. I'm waiting for my interview letter but I'm getting everything ready to renew my EAD that's gonna expire in a few months. I don't need to pay the required fee but do I need to pay the biometrics fee? Thanks

I don’t think so.... I’m going to renew my EAD as well. I did my interview in November and still haven’t gotten a response. They told me they have 120 days to make a decision 😞😞😞😞😞

who told you about the 120 days timeline ? Interviewing officer ? Infopass ? Call center ?

 

Understand your frustration, on the positive side you will get automatic extension of 180 days once you apply for EAD

Biometrics are geneally valid for 15 months and you wont have to pay it at this point of time. Also for EAD+AP you dont need to pay anything if your I-130+i-485 is still pending.

Anyone has any idea how long they'll take to actually resend my gc? I moved and updated my address but I didn't know it was approved, there was no case update until I saw "card Returned Undeliverable".

 

So frustrating. So near yet so far

hey all,

 

I'm sending out my AOS package soon. Did any of you decide to not send the I-693 (medical examination), and wait to take it to interview? If so, has anyone actually got a RFE for not sending in the medical with the package? I don't want it to expire, so would rather wait to take it to interview. However, I don't want to risk an RFE and risk delaying my EAD/AP!
