August 2017 AOS Filers, Part II

[MrMizo 144]

Got the Notification in my Email that the Interview was scheduled on 7/31 and we recieved the paper notice on 08/04! We sent our EAD renewal in about 2 weeks ago and it seems that the interview notice and the NOA for the I765 came in at the same time 🤔 

I wonder if they realized our paper then? 

 

Anyway were stoked to get the interview in September, everyone who is waiting your time will come! 

 

I'll update you guys after the interview of what happened ^^

 

Good luck everyone!

So happy for everyone to get their green cards! I’m still on “waiting for an interview” and I’ve had to send off my EAD forms again. My PD was August 3rd 2017 

Hi !  Same thing for me, when did you get your EAD& how long before it expires did you send the forms again ?

i got it the end of october. The thing that worried me was that my HR manager emailed me asking me to send her some updated documents due to the EAD's upcoming expiry. I sent off my forms 3 months before its supposed to expire. I received the new i-797s already and on the paper it says that if I don't get my new EAD in time that that paper can serve as an extension of 180 days, (if it gets accepted that is). However it can't be used as a travel document.

Hi there! Still waiting on my husbands green card interview. We submitted a new ead renewal application. We will call USCIS once his Green card application hits the 1 year mark which would be August 14. 😩

Yup, waiting as well!! I only have had my EAD for 4 months but I'm already wondering if I will need to send renewal forms in 2 months. I hope everyone gets their interviews soon.

How long before the expiration of the EAD before you send for renewal. Mine will expire in Dec and I still don't know when I'm suppose to send the renewal. I don't want it to be too early or too late

So my husband received his in Nov 2017. It expires Nov 2018. We sent out a renewal around first week of August 2018. When I called to follow up his green card interview, they told us we should renew 3-4 months before it expires.

I hope so too. A lot of the August filer 2017 folks had their interviews already. :/

Yeah and I know the processing times on the website don't mean all that much. But the processing times for my field office keep changing! So frustrating.

Hey guys,                                                           I just want to share my happiness with you all!  I had my interview today, thank God this processs is finally over for at least 2 years, exactly today marks 375 days since they received my case. Interview went pretty well, a young very nice lady asked us a few questions took all the evidence we had, she ask if we have any trips I explain her no, since  my AP card took longer than expected we have to cancel a trip to Canada. My husband explain how close I’m to his mom, she took all evidence and kept it. I was early in the morning 8:15 am we arrived 30 min earlier. She was just so sweet and made us feel like if we were just sharing our daily she asked my husband, marriage date and when did we decided to move in together. She mention our dog is cute. Took some pictures probably 3-4. She then told us everything since pretty well went over 2 Contiditons And told us  I should be getting my card after 2-3 weeks. I felt so happy, but when we got to the car I got a change of status saying “interview was completed, case must be reviewed” 11:30 am Omg! I freaked out look it out and read all bad things, but thank god that was not the case apparently some IO don’t have the right to approve cases, they can only interview you and give you a recommendation which is what your case is based on “their recomedation”, once they do it it gets send to their supervisors for them to send the notification of approval and print. I took a nap around 2-3 pm woke up to a notification saying “new card is being produced” happy dance! God luck to everyone in the same boat thanks for this year of support  no lawyer was  needed it thanks to all your guidance and experience. God bless you all and be pacient your happy dance turn will come, slowly but surely!!
