No, but my wife had chicken pox as a child so that counts as vaccinations (history of varicella on DS-3025)

We are also Hartford and have very similar timelines. We did biometrics and ours also says the same. 

Okay, so assume that's normal. I've been told Hartford is one of the slowest offices! 😒

There are not fast or slow states. There are fast or slow field offices (some states have multiple field offices, some have none, some field offices handle cases from multiple states).

I’m in a slow field office in a slow state 😂😂😂 - Manhattan

Yep. All normal I’m afraid. You can also check the estimated times for different offices using this link: https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

 

And yes, Hartford is not a particularly speedy office.

For the first time since NOA1 my status on "old" site updated. Only I-485 was updated to "Case is Ready to Be Scheduled for An Interview" There were no updates to "new" site, that doesn't even show the dates. EAD and AP still show just case received. 

 

To be honest I am incredibly glad for this update even though I realize it might be stuck in this for awhile.

Current AoS timeline: 

• Packet sent USPS March 24
• Packet Delivered March 27
• NOA1 Received Date March 27
• Paper NOA1 in the mail April 08 (No SMS or e-mail notifications)
• Biometrics NOA: April 12
• Biometrics completed April 15 (Walk-in, schedule date was April 26)
• Ready to be scheduled: May 08

hello,

 

does anyone have experience in using AP to travel abroad?

 

I am taking a trip to London next week with my combo EAD but I am nervous. Because on USCIS website , it said it depends on the border... 

 

can anyone share your experience with AP traveling out of the US? 

 

Thanks.

Oh never mind I see you filed last year. You are better asking elsewhere as no one here will have received their AP yet, we only filed in March

Great! 👍🏼 I hope mine updates in few days too. I’ve been waiting since April 18th, no update for me after Biometrics.

My wife's EAD expedite was approved just now! Our green card interview is in a couple weeks, but this removes some pressure since we know she'll be able to keep her current job even if we don't get quick approval!
