November 2018 AOS Filers, Part 2

[Tavira87 30]

Hi All, 

 

Just a quick update from my call with USCIS today after waiting 30 days for my 'out of processing time' request for AP and hearing nothing. 

 

I actually got a very nice guy on the phone, he looked into all my cases, said they all 'look normal' and then filed a new 'why is it taking so long' case for my AP, he said I should hear something via email by Aug 23rd. 

 

While I still have no idea how long this never ending process is going to take but at leased came away today (perhaps) a tiny step closer. 

 

Good look for all others calling in for the same reason soon, I'd be interested to hear what they have to say....

Thank you for the update.. and at the same time I'm so sorry to hear this. Tomorrow we are able to call and check on ours so I will keep everyone posted as well. We are at Day 260 today and my biggest fear is that they will still give me the blanket statement. Hard to know that in my same local office, someone just got there EAD in 3 months. Here we are at 9 months. Does you Case online state that it was assigned to an officer?

Really frustrating wait.  Please update us here if you receive anything useful from USCIS tomorrow. I can only call again on Aug 15 since it’s gonna be 30 days since we filed the AP SR. We actually have a similar timeline. I really am just hoping that we receive our work & travel permit soon. Seems to me there are some progress with other November-December filers. I hope we’re next.

Yes you're right I was just looking at our timelines and they are very similar! We are currently living in West Bend, which area are you located in?

We’re neighboring states! We’re in Joliet, Illinois. Our FO works slowly compared to the Wisconsin FO (i-485 wise) I think though.

Thanks JMCKNG, I'm sorry for all of us that have got so far left behind! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you for tomorrow. Do please let us know how you get on. 

 

No, neither my Travel Permit or Work Auth have been assigned. Have yours?

Hello my lovelies,

 

I got my interview scheduled at Las Vegas. Totally shocked. Interview is Sept 12th. However, I do have my UK trip scheduled Aug 21st-Sept 4th. I should be fine to go still with my AP?

Congratulations! You were scheduled WAY earlier than you expected. 🙌

 

And of course you're fine traveling prior interview. Having the interview scheduled does not affect the EAD/ AP; the card becomes invalid AFTER the AOS is approved.

Don't you have health insurance through him? Joint tax return? Credit cards?

Nothing at all, anyway my husband is retired and he's just receiving sss pension and we don't file any tax return nor affidavit of support on our AOS application but it goes well and we have upcoming interview next month I am just curious because we don't have those joint bank account or anything like what you've mention

If he has a bank account, he should name you the beneficiary in case of death. Also, he should add you to his testament. Both documents are useful for the interview and a very important thing to do anyway.
