We went for the interview on Friday and was approved on the spot!!

What's next? The officer said they will be mailing us the approval notice and then the green card within 30 days. Anyone here knows how long will it take? We are traveling internationally on 1st June. I asked the officer and she said I can travel with my EAD and Advanced Parole card or if my green card arrive first, use that.

But we're still curious to know how long will it take to get the approval notice and the physical card. Anyone??

Oh wow... yeah it's a pain to have to wait for so long.  I'm sorry there's a longer delay for you.  I'm sure it'll be here soon though.  I've heard Santa Ana is known to be REALLY SLOW...  Will be praying for you!!

I just got approved finally!!!! 

May I ask how long it took from the approval notification online to getting the GC in hand?

Congratulations!!!  It took about a week for it to get to us.  What really sucked was they sent it the day my wife left the country... It arrived when I got back from the airport

Received an interview date!! May 17th, 2019.

 

Before I came to the US, I did a full medical examination (09/2017), did the whole sealed envelope thing and handed the packet to the CBP upon entry (1/2018). I filed for AOS on 2/2018. Received an interview date on 5/2019. Do I still need to do a medical examination?

Hi J&M. Did you done another medical exam for the AOS interview? We are scheduled for interview on 19th of June.  So i don,t know if i meed to have another medical examination or just show the vaccination record. Hope you can help me with this. Thank you

We got married and sent our documents on Feb 2018. 1 week ago i received a letter saying that our schedule for interview is on the 19th of June. Just wanted to know if i need to have another medical before our interview.. hope someone can help or give me insight on what to do. Thank you so much in advance.

Wow!  Pretty nice, answering a previous question with your own question. ;) Did either of you take the opportunity to review the excellent information thread located at the top of the K1/K3 AOS Forum: Immunizations. DS3025 or I-693?  It was initially posted there three years ago, and has been updated. It just may have some information that may applicable to both of your lines of inquiry.

 

Good luck on our immigration journey.

Hi Pitaya. I already been searching for it and reading some stuff since we applied for AOS, as i know that my medical is valid for 1 year, some says after the medical and other says after submitting the documents for AOS, And because it is already 15 months since we submitted our files i was lost and wanted to make sure and hear those who recently have their interview. But thank you again., i appreciate it much.

The best way to ask questions is to ask your question by itself. It is considered bad form to try to hijack another person's thread with your own question, and can only tend to confuse people trying to answer the initial thread, and then yours. :yes:

Estimated wait time for work permit and advance parole is now 6.5-8.5 months according to the USCIS website. So you're probably going to be waiting for a while longer! Many of us from October-December 2018 are also still waiting with no news on our cases
