January 2019 - AOS Filers (merged)

[Bluewaters 288]

Hello my January filers, hope all are doing well. It seems June is close to ending and we did not hear a lot of approvals. 

I hope July will be our month of joy where all of us or most of us will get ead/ap approvals or gc interviews scheduled. 

Let us all hope for the best!!!

Status of my AOS was updated today to ready to schedule an appointment - yay finally some movement. However, still no movement on work permit or AP.

Status updated on the old site but not the new one. Also no email or txt from USCIS to confirm the change in status despite submitting one of those forms that requests it. Le Sigh, why are their systems so weird.

well, there is one person who got approved with NOA1 recently, so maaaaaybe there'll be some movement towards the end of the week. Hopefully.

Got an update today - interview HAS been scheduled, mail will follow.

 

Filed on January 18th. Beginning of June got the information that case is ready to be scheduled for an interview, and now this. I765 still says fingerprint have been received. Never attempted to expedite.

 

Happy, nervous and everything in between. Hopefully all goes smooth. I hope everyone gets goods news sooner rather than later.

Hello there! Just sharing my GC process experience. I’m a January 29, 2019 filer from Pittsburgh, PA.

 

NOA1: Feb 05

Bio Sched: Feb 26

Mar 27: status changed to “We are ready to schedule your form I-485”

May 20: status changed to “We scheduled an interview for your form I-485” (after 7 days from the date, I received a notice letter for the instructions and interview date)

June 27: Date of Interview

 

My interview went great. It took us 30 mins inside the interview room and about 15-20 mins waiting time outside before my name was called. My interview was like 15 mins serious questions about us and what was written in the form I-485 and the rest of the time was chitchatting with the officer, since the interviewer has filipino bloodline and I am from the Philippines, so we talked a lot. Lol! Then couple of hours later my status change to “New card is being produced” I hope this could help others out there.

 

Btw, for my EAD and AP there was no change of status until now. It was “Case was Received” forever 🤣 Anyways, If I receive the GC on hand, I wont mind and wait for the EAD and AP anymore

Congratulations! Did they say anything if it was approved or if they would run some background check?

Thank you! He gave a letter stated your case is being held for review. According to him it’s a way of formality. But he wrote Approved in the sticky note and put it outside the folder (those are my forms and supporting documents sent from USCIS).

Hahaha....Yes, I woke up from my nap this afternoon just to see a notification from case tracker that "New card is being produced" How long will it take to receive my card and my SSN ?

 

I hope many of our January filers will receive good news as well.
