Hi All, 

What the status "Case Is Ready To Be Scheduled For An Interview" mean?? Does it imply 

- All forms (i-130, i-765,i-485) have been reviewed, deemed complete and no further evidence needed? 
- FBI background clearance is complete?

Yep I would assume so. I received an RFE, sent it back and a week later my case was ready for interview.  So I assume my case is complete and reviewed. Happy news as of today I have an interview date now! So your just waiting for your field office to schedule the interview now. Congrats!

How did you know your interview date? Did you receive mail just like the biometric schedule?

Yep. my case was updated online to ready to schedule interview. Then a week or so later it was updated again online with a scheduled interview and said the date. The next day I got the official letter in the mail.

Hi everyone, first post here. I submitted on behalf of my wife who is currently on an F-1 visa. Here is our timeline:

 

Mid-December 2017: Concurrently filed I-130 (I-130A), I-131, I-485, I-765, I-864 to Chicago lockbox

12/22/2017: Received date and priority date

1/2/2018: I-797C Notice of action of all forms received

1/5/2018: I-797C Notice of action for biometrics appointment at USCIS Boston (Revere, MA)

1/25/2018: Biometrics appointment completed

1/26/2018: Courtesy letter to applicant that I-693 was NOT filed (we intentionally didn't file I-693 since it's only valid for a year and we didn't know when we would have our interview date)

2/15/2018: Interview scheduled for 3/29/2018

 

We just received an email and case status update today that the interview has already been scheduled! Here is what the case status page says: 

Quote

On February 15, 2018, we scheduled you for your interview and mailed you an interview notice for Receipt Number MSC__________. Your interview is on March 29, 2018. Please follow the instructions in the notice. If you do not receive your interview notice by March 17, 2018, please go to www.uscis.gov/e-request to request a copy of the notice. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

And the email:

Quote

*** DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS E-MAIL *** 

There has been a recent processing action taken on your case. 

Receipt Number: MSC_______________

Application Type: I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR ADJUST STATUS 

Your Case Status: Testing and Interview 

On February 15, 2018, we scheduled you for your interview and mailed you an interview notice for Receipt Number MSC____________. Your interview is on March 29, 2018. Please follow the instructions in the notice. If you do not receive your interview notice by March 17, 2018, please go to www.uscis.gov/e-request to request a copy of the notice. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address. 

If your case status indicates that you are currently in this step, you have either been scheduled for an interview or are in line to be scheduled for an interview. The amount of time your application will remain in this step will vary by office and is largely determined by the number of cases ahead of yours. The interview notice will have specifics about time, location and anything you will need to bring to your interview. If your application remains pending beyond our normal processing times (as shown below) please contact our national customer service center at 1-800-375-5283. Please note that not every application/applicant will require an interview. In some instances, an interview is required by regulation and others an interview is requested because USCIS has determined that this is the most efficient means to determine eligibility. For a naturalization application the interview will include your taking the required English and/or Civics tests (unless exempt or waived). 
 

• Log-in to your myUSCIS account to view your case history and understand what you can expect to happen next on your case.
• Current processing times can be found on the USCIS website at under Check Processing Times.

Sincerely,

The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)

We only filed our package less than 2 months ago so we are surprised that we already have an interview date set. If it's real, we need to get our I-693 (medical exam) done ASAP.

Congrats! We have an almost identical situation and time line. Did your case status change at all up until today? My wife has done the biometrics but the case status is still sitting at "Received" and last updated 12/22/2017

Thank you! Yes actually, I remember checking the case status around 2/10 and it said something like "your case is ready to be scheduled for an interview", which I interpreted to mean that the biometrics appointment was successful (I had read a few instances online that some people had to re-do another biometrics appointment). For some reason this status update doesn't show up in the case history of my I-485 though, it just says this:

 

Quote

02/15/2018 We are ready to schedule your Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, for an interview.
01/01/2018 We accepted the fingerprint fee for your Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or to Adjust Status. Our National Benefits Center location is working on your case.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

Same - mine are all last updated 12/22/2017. I'm expecting a long wait until the interview as Seattle seems to take 10-14 months for AOS. Hoping to hear something about the EAD in March tho!

[cherryblossoms916 216]

Anyone from here thas has changed status or got any response right after biometrics for K1 aos

Hey,

I requested to expedite my case on Jan 26 and last Friday my EAD finally went in production.. You can click on my timeline where I have each step I went through..

I was lucky enough to have the fax go through the first time,  but I was very worried that It actually didn't.

 

Good Luck!
