We attended our interview last Friday in San Bernardino, CA. I am awaiting to upload a full report until all is resolved. Immediately we were informed at the interview that my wife's medical was missing from the file and they had ordered a copy from the National Records Center. The IO indicated his approval of her application pending receipt of the medical file. However, the whole interview experience was quite strange. He said he reviewed our file the day before and noticed it was missing, so obviously they check them out in advance. The IO didn't ask for a single financial document or pictures, just birth/marriage/divorce certificates. I am hoping his indication of approval is true. He said if they cannot locate the record, she will have to redo the medical at a civil surgeon. I am a little disappointed that it is lost, and I assume it was lost at POE because of the experience we had. I assume there is little chance the National Records Center has it. So I have to wait probably a month or more to get an RFE, submit the medical exam and wait for approval again. I paid a lot of money for the exams and vaccinations in Mexico, so hopefully they won't have to be redone. Hoping for the best, expecting the worst.

Hi, during my interview I wasn’t asked for anything but I had a missing vaccination (chicken pox vaccination). The IO asked me whether I wanted the RFE there and then or whether I would want it to be sent via mail. I asked for him to give me the letter there and then, got my vaccination and then went back to the office to hand it in. The next day my card was being produced. Maybe you can call and ask them if you can come in to get the letter? I’m not sure if you can do that but it’s worth the try.. It’s easier than waiting but it’s up to you

Do y'all only inquire about the i-765 or both the i-765 and i-131 once you're out of normal processing times?

Plus, once we send in an inquiry they HAVE to look and process our applications, right?
The date changed to March 4th btw

WOW they are moving really fast now!  I think, you can inquire in each application, one inquiry for I-485 and another for I-131 because of the format of the form. It requires to type in the case number which is different in both of the forms.

Thank you everyone for the valuable information during the jurney, and I hope everyone's cards come soon!

That’s good - make sure you check your local field office processing time. My office which is NYC is 20.5 - 34 months so I’ll be stuck at this status for a while lol

You and I have almost the same timeline. I'm only a day away from making an inquiry for the EAD. I hope it won't stuck there because that would drive me crazy... Also, my field office's waiting time for the interview is pushed back to 13 months to 22 months  It was 11 months a week ago 😪

Yes, only once you’re outside of normal processing times. I would encourage you to call USCIS to inquire, as online inquiries don’t normally really go anywhere.
