I received my biometrics appointment late (~2.5/3 months after filing). However, as soon as I was done with Biometrics last Friday (9/6/2019), my status changed to Case ready to be scheduled for interview. The last status I saw was Fingerprint fee received. No update on the I-765/I131. Still showing up just as case received. Guess the long wait now begins!

Status changed overnight to say Interview was Scheduled. Will wait to find out the date in the mail.

 

I-485 was delivered May 29, 2019 but we were one of those whose form wasn't processed for several weeks so NOA1 was June 18, 2019.

My case status changed to "Expedite Request Approved" on August 26, but yesterday my case status changed to "Correspondence Was Received And USCIS Is Reviewing It" along with an email that states:

 

"Your Case Status: Initial Review

On September 9, 2019, we received your correspondence for Form I765, APPLICATION FOR EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION, Receipt Number XX. We are reviewing your correspondence, and will mail you a notice if we need something from you. If you move, go to x to give us your new mailing address.
During this step, USCIS initiates the background checks of the applicant/petitioner and identifies issues that may need to be addressed either during an interview or by asking the applicant/petitioner to submit additional information or documentation. USCIS reviews the applicant's/petitioner's criminal history, determines if there are national security concerns that need to be addressed, and reviews the application/petition for fraud indicators. If you have filed an I-485, I-589, I-751, N-400, I-90, I-821, I-131 or I-765, you can expect to receive an appointment notice to appear at an Application Support Center to have your fingerprints and/or photographs taken. The timing of your appointment is determined by the number of applicants ahead of you that also need a biometric appointment. We try to schedule biometric appointments as quickly as possible and in most cases you will receive your appointment notice within 30 days of submitting your application. We will send your appointment notice approximately 14 days ahead of your scheduled appointment. It is important that you keep this appointment. If absolutely necessary, you can request that your appointment be rescheduled however, please be aware that rescheduling may delay the processing of your application. Please follow the instructions on your appointment notice if you need to reschedule. Occasionally, you may receive an appointment notice to appear at an Application Support Center to have your fingerprints taken when you have filed a form other than those listed above. In these situations, you may receive your appointment notice more than 30 days after submitting your application or petition."

I did my biometrics on June 24th, has anyone received this email?

Hi everyone! 

We just had our green card interview today in OKC! It went so smoothly, our officer was very nice! They didn’t ask many questions besides all the questions on the I-485 form part 8. They asked about some of our personal life but nothing to crazy! 

We were approved on the spot and we got an email saying our case has been updated to “card/document in production”! 

 

Our timeline adjusting from K1 in Oklahoma:

Expedite of EAD approved 10th September. This was my second time filing, the first rejected due to no biometrics.  

 

Expedite via financial hardship. Sent proof of pending job offer.
