[Dianacm 3]

Hi everyone!

 

I sent my AOS packet/EAD packet yesterday. 

[Redheadguy03 505]

Sent in my Aos today! Hoping it goes smoothly and quickly! Luckily, I'm in Montana, not as many applicants, so I'm hoping it goes faster.

I believe it's a local facility where you live! Shouldn't be your hometown or near given that would be outside of the US and we are not allowed to travel.

 

https://www.uscis.gov/greencard/adjustment-of-status , they mention a local application support center (ASC).

You can actually check which field office are you under by going to the USCIS website, search for Field Offices, select your state, and look for the county where your residence is under the jurisdiction of and you will know which field office are you supposed to go.

 

Also, just because there is a FO near your home, it does NOT necessarily mean that it is your FO. I have a friend who lives in Arkansas and her field office is in Memphis, TN which is 3hrs away from where they live.

 

Ask your spouse what county is your address under and you can look it up on the USCIS website.

Hello all,

 

I've sent my AOS, AP, and EAD on the 9th of September (a Friday).

The notifications via text and email came in on the next Thursday. The NOA1s came in the mail this Monday (18th) with a notice date of 13 September.

 

Anyone else dreading more of this waiting game?

And knowing it's not the last time either ...

 

But hey, more rights every time, right?!

 

Can't wait to work, because I've been driving myself and my husband crazy. Luckily, we don't need to live paycheck to paycheck (I have savings), but it's not fun seeing him slave away in this heat every day, and me sitting at home having trouble keeping my motivation up for longer than an hour to do something useful.

It's like this forced unemployment drains all my energy. 

 

So this specific poster will be absurdly happy when she can work again.

I feel you!  At least we were having the floor redone just before the wedding (yeah my then fiancé started the process beginning of july, well the dude didn't finish until end of August ). So it was a lot of work to put everything back and clean and then we had to get the baseboards done, which we did after the wedding. So now I am cleaning up everything and placing everything back in order. I am sick of cleaning the house to be honest, but I guess if I worked it wouldn't be any better as house would still need to be cleaned, but we would both work and things place where they belong. Once the inside will be done I still gotta manage the garage, guess I will manage to keep myself sane for maybe another month or so loll! But I definitely can't spend my whole day cleaning and doing useful stuff, unlike I would for a real job.

I sent the package on September 8 and it was received September 12. Hope your NOA1 letter arrives soon!

[PR&PR 325]

The whole K1 process for me was awfully slow, but up to now the AOS seems to be quick. I got the NOA1 in the mail today! I sent everything on the 12. I hope they keep up that pace!

Hi everyone!

I am trying my best to be done with all the documents till the end of September, because I'm currently on J1 work and travel visa which expires on 30th of Sept. My fiance and I got married on 09/09 and we are waiting for our marriage certificate,  and in the same time I am trying to figure out all the forms we should fill in-so far so good we have i485, i130, i131 and i765, what about the i864 is it neccesary to be send out as well? Am I missing something else from the forms? And my second question is what should I type in "current status" if I cant send the documents before the end of September, is it still J1 even if my visa will be expired? (I am still legal here, because with the work and travel visas, we are provided with an extra month for travelling  purposes)

I am very sorry for the long post..

Good luck everyone!
