 I finally see someone from Houston!! When did you file? I filed at the end of July and my status is still "Fingerprint Review Was Completed" 

 

Hope you get your interview date soon!

 

 

Hi Laura, we filed our paperwork at the very beginning of July. I hope your process happens quickly as well.

It looks like some of you filed for AOS at the same time as me with the same office (Chicago) and have already returned RFE's and have interviews scheduled. I've heard nothing back on mine yet... 

 

I-130: Case Received (7/12)

I-485: Fingerprints Completed (8/9)

I-131: Case Received (7/12)

I-765: Fingerprints Completed (8/9)

 

Is this normal?

Just got the letter from USCIS.

Our interview date - November, 19th, in Buffalo, NY

I'm a bit confused.. Reading the checklist of what I need to bring for interview and it says "A completed medical examination (Form I-693) and vaccination supplement in a sealed envelope (unless already submitted)". Does it mean that I have to do another medical exam or I can bring the one I did for K-1 visa?

You already submitted your medical at POE so all you need to bring is your vaccination sheet (DS-3025)

Oh, that's good   I'm so nervous and don't feel like doing another medical exam, not a big fan of doctors

Well, my medical exam for K-1 visa was in the end of October 2018, so it will be a year and almost a month by November 19th, my interview date. That's why I'm nervous a little bit

In that case, it will probably be up to the prerogative of the IO. This is from the I-693 instructions:

 

What if I am a K nonimmigrant visa holder and already had a medical examination overseas?
Form I-693 Instructions 07/15/19 Page 8 of 12
If you were admitted as a:
A. K-1 fiancé(e) or a K-2 child of a K-1 fiancé(e); or
B. K-3 spouse of a U.S. citizen or a K-4 child of a K-3 spouse of a U.S. citizen; and
C. You received a medical examination prior to admission, then:
(1) You are not required to have another medical examination as long as you file your Form I-485 within one year
of an overseas medical examination; and
(a) The panel physician did not find a class A medical condition during your overseas examination; or
(b) The panel physician did find a class A medical condition, you received a waiver of inadmissibility, and
you have complied with the terms and conditions of the waiver.
(2) Even if a new medical examination is not required, you must still show proof that you complied with the
vaccination requirements. If the vaccination record (DS 3025) was not properly completed and included as
part of the original overseas medical examination report, you will need to have the Part 10. Vaccination
Record completed by a designated civil surgeon. In this case, you must submit Parts 1. - 5., 7., and 10.
of Form I-693.

 

So, it seems as long as you filed for AOS within the year after your medical, you should be okay. You may want to print the I-693 instructions and highlight this part in case you run into any issues.
