Another new month maybe we'll get picked up this new month. My wife is clawing at the bit to start working and driving. She is not on my back yet clawing me, but I can feel it coming SOON LOL!

Right with you on this one!  I had kinda figured March when we filed, but seeing all the other approvals really changed the mindset around it.  I will go crazy if this thing gets delayed into April......

Hey, Congrats!

 

Just wondering, loosely followed your activity and I am somewhat basing mine off yours. 

 

I got the text notification last thursday 2/25 for my EAD saying that it was being processed. Friday it changed to "case approved" for both AP and EAD. 

Today, 3/2/2020 I received both approval notices in the mail. I was just wondering how long did it take for your combo card to arrive after you got the approval notice.

Thank you!  Approval notices 2/24-2/25 and in the mail 2/29. Actual card mailed notification 2/27 and in the mail 3/2.

What date is your NOA1? I've been looking out for someone whose document is also NBC . NBC looks like they are taking forever.. I pray mine comes through this March..

I filed 9/26, biometrics 10/22. I requested EAD expedite. They received fax of my offer letter and such around 11/6. Got RFE a day after for i485. Could not send documents end of january 2020.  They received it around the 01/28. I485 changed on 2/20 to "ready to be scheduled".

02/28 got "EAD processing" then the next day, EAD and AP changed to "case approved". Received notice of approval in the mail today. Expedite did not seem to work but I can't tell for sure because they sent the RFE right after I submitted the RFE for the EAD. I called USCIS and talked to tier officer 2 and seems like my EAD was slowed because I did not send the RFE for I485 sooner. So I'm not sure if I am "ahead" of schedule because of the expedite or because they are working fast.

Hey everyone, 

 

got our interview letter, its set on april 7.

 

i have a question regarding medical, it is listed as the requirement on the letter as the i693 form. But I never got a request to actually do it, my question is that should I do medical before interview or wait for the interviewer to ask for it?

Did you do your medical for your K1? Did you send it with the AoS petition? It's the paper where it states all your immunizations and vaccines youve had ever since you were kid.

Yeah I did medical for K1, but it was a year ago. I also submitted the immunization document.

"If you are a K-1, K-2, K-3 or K-4 visa holder the I-693 instructions state that you are not required to have another medical examination as long as your Form I-485 is filed within one year of your overseas medical examination."

 

This is taken from this website. I assume that you filled your paperwork less than year from your medical, no?
