AOS - work permit, change of center

[nurmeer 0]

Hi, I have applied for adjustment of status, work permit & travel document based on marriage to a US Citizen. My case was accepted on Feb 27th, 2018 got my biometrics appointment for a month later,  29 March 2018. Now it's been 3 months, I haven't heard back or received an email notification regarding my work permit & travel document. I am based in Houston, Texas, sent my documents to Chicago lockbox, my tracking number starts with MSC. Anyone who can tell me how long do I have to wait further? Also after work permit, what's the timeline for getting the interview and getting the green card?

Btw, I got no request for evidence yet, does that mean all my documents are approved or they can still ask for more evidence? I only got one letter of my Medical form not being accepted in March 2018, which was the fault of the physician for using old forms, so it was stated on the letter to bring the current form on the Interview.

 

I called USCIS 3 days back to ask about the expedite option, I put up a request but haven't heard back yet. They told me currently Texas is processing cases from dec 2017, so it will take another 2 months for a work permit. Initially, I assumed it only takes 3 months from the processing date.

I have one other question, I filed my application based in Houston. Now if I change my address to another city where I will be moving in future, can I change the address to that city? Is it going to have a positive impact on the application or will create more roadblocks? Like Houston is currently processing Dec 2015 applications for Form 485, some other city is processing Dec 2016.  Should I change it to get any benefit or it will take the same time? Thanks

Work permits and all are taking a little longer recentl. Might be another month or so. The case status won't change really, you'll just kind of get it in the mail.

 

Also the GC is taking a little longer also so hard to say. We also went through the Houston office and had no notice or anything until one day the green card showed up in the mail without interview or anything.

Some people are waiting 6 months for their combo cards. 

 

Buckle up and just wait.
