Since August 1st, 2017, my case is ready to be scheduled for an interview. Around April 11th, 2018 the https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/mycasestatus.do website changed to "At this time USCIS cannot provide you with information for your case" and it has not been updated since. In the https://myaccount.uscis.dhs.gov website it still says "We are scheduling your interview".

Ah! I haven't. I didn't realize I had to renew the medical too. Bummer!

 

I don't mind the long wait for AOS, but now I have to pay $400 for another medical, oh well.

 

Does it really have to be done again because  it's now 1 year old even though  it was new when the I-485 was submitted?

 

If so, I'll probably wait until our interview is scheduled. They had the results in 2-3 days.

I think it has to be done again.  We live in an area with a lot of refugees and immigrants, so our church recently opened a free immigration help center.  A few weeks ago, we were chatting with the guys who run the center and they asked us if we had booked our medical yet.  They said we could get an RFE at our interview if our medical is not up to date.  So. . . I think that we do indeed have to do another medical.  We haven't booked the appointment yet; I have tried contacting the closest office to our house a few times, but they never got back to me, so I guess we'll go elsewhere.  There are quite a few options in the Minneapolis area.

Hey guys, I just want to let you know I went for my interview today for adjustment of status. The interview went well and the officer was very engaging and thorough. He asked how we met,our names, address and few documents to confirm our marriage. I was approved immediately after the interview with a confirmation letter, and he told me to wait for the card in the mail box.

Just few minutes ago, I received an email confirmation that my card is being produced.

Good morning everyone! I haven’t updated my timeline in a while but I still read new posts from time to time.

 

Finally! Interview scheduled for July 6, 2018. Received notice yesterday dated May 29, 2018. PD is May 31, 3017.

 

Submitted a SR online back in December 27, 2017 for case outside of normal processing time. Got an email response on May 17, 2018. 4 months+ after! 

 

I got worried because my local field office’s processing times went from 11.5 - 18 months to 11.5 - 26.5 months for family-based AOS. 👎🏼😡

 

I was about to file for EAD/AP renewal next week which expires on September 20th. 

 

So, good luck to everyone else who are still waiting for their cases to progress. Patience is key! 👍🏼🤞🏼😊

You don't need to pay. I sent my renewal without a check and it got accepted. It's still processing. You do need to include a copy of your NOA for the I-485 to prove that your AOS is pending.
