JULY 2017 FILERS

[Snorkel378 38]

And time is at 12:30 pm. Which works for me would have a hard time oversleeping it.

I'm still waiting for a word from USCIS. The last update I got was that my RFE response has been received. That was on 8/30. I originally filed July 5th but my package was rejected so I resent it around July 22nd. My husband is a visa overstay and I'm a naturalized USC. Besides the overstay he has done nothing wrong so I hope and pray that we will get approved. We received or EAD/AP on 11/1.

Yes! It feels like an eternity. But this too shall pass!

seems like this process is taking freaking long. But i have a friend who also filed at the same office in August, he already went to his interview last month and got his card issued. i don't know what's going on.

@HnZ  did this friend adjust from a tourist or work visa?

Alright, just go back home from my wife's I-485 interview, went well, our officer mostly asked us questions off the form, asked us for our medical, and just asked us how we met. Said our case was very approvable with plenty of bona fides and had us sign a form about removing conditions and said if approved we would get the card in 3-4 weeks and to keep an eye on the mail for the next week. Just waiting for a text and email hopefully saying we are approved but we shall see. I am relieved but my wife is still gonna freak out until the card is in her hand. I imagine she just has to go over the medical which is, in my opinion, why we weren't approved on the spot. Will let y'all know when we get the sms/email regarding hopefully a case change for approval.

Thanks for the update @Snorkel378. What kind of form was it about removing conditions? I assume you haven't been married two years yet? 

[Snorkel378 38]

Yeah not at two years yet we just had to sign something saying we understand we would have to acknowledge that conditions would have to be removed. Still waiting on text/email/letter so hopefully there isn’t some hold up.

So the e gov site shows still scheduled for interview but the newer myuscis account is showing approved as of Tuesday 27 March, so we are done for two years it looks like, just waiting for the notice and the card. Thank goodness.

That's good news! Congratulations!

[Snorkel378 38]

Thank You, we got notices for the 130 and 485 yesterday, Saturday 31 March. Online status showing card was mailed on the 29th so we shall hopefully get that soon.

[Snorkel378 38]

And this morning, Wednesday 4 April we got the card in the mail, stating resident since the day of our interview, expiring in 2 years and in the new card style. We’ll be removing condition in late December 2019!

So our EAD is valid until 10/18. Now with the new updated processing times, would it be recommended to renew the EAD or should we wait on our green card? My husband is employed already and they mentioned that the expiration date could lead to termination.
