Has anyone here received a green card without going through the interview process

Can a F/O waive an interview if the office is backlogged?

USCIS case tracker updated my I-485. 

7/19/18 confirming that they received my RFE response. 

 

This was a RFIE not RFE though. Not that it matters but does that mean my clock won’t re-start?

 

I am trying to find when others were approved after they submitted just the RFIE for BC with ET?

 

I-765 still days 10/4/17 for receipt date.

2  days ago. By the time online changed it was already saying “changed 2 days ago”. Weird

We filled AoS  2017-10-17, received my EAD 2018-01-02, since them nothing, we are in the scheduling your interview since Dec 07...

Seattle have a processing time of 22 months!

 

What happen if by the end of the year we are still waiting? Will I need to renew my EAD? Will that mean paying more fees??

You need to renew your EAD in time! Here's what the USCIS website says :

 

"To extend an employment authorization card, an application for renewal must be filed around 180 days prior to the expiration date printed on the card. An application for renewal of a work permit must be filed and accepted by the USCIS prior to the expiration of the card that was initially granted to the applicant."

yes, you need to renew your ead/ap (that is, if you are working or intend to continue working and/or want to travel internationally). my aos is also taking forever and my ead/ap combo card will expire in early jan 2019. i just sent off my ead/ap renewal packet yesterday.

They received my EAD (C9) renewal application on July 18 (USPS tracking). But what calls my attention is that I did not receive any text message or email, even when I attached form G-1145. My current EAD expires on December.

just wait for a little bit more, sometimes it takes them at least a couple of weeks to receive and send the receipt notifications. other people wait up to a month to receive the notifications.

Hope someone can share their AOS interview document checklist. Struggling to prepare mine. I feel like I’m lacking some items

we sent ours in recently,  around the same time with the G-1145

 

We got our NOA in the mail for the renewal, and did not get the text or email either.  Likely you're fine.

Hi guys, our interview is on 08/20. My wife will be out of town at that time. Can we reschedule the interview citing financial loss if we change the ticket now? Its international flight and damn expensive now to change it. Please help.

Hi. We hoped for our interview so badly for the whole time since the marriage last year. I don't know how that would work if you request a change of your interview date. Why don't you do some research? Do you know how much more you have to wait if you request a reschedule your interview? I understand flight tickets are expensive, but I think this interview is more important. My husband and I were so stressed out, and we just wanted to get over with it.
