OMG congrats!! I just came to see if you had hear anything and so happy to see this!!

 

Hope the rest of you still waiting are hanging in there.... @rye_212 I'm sorry to read your post that nothing has moved forward My husband has now had to cancel two flights to Ireland...much of his family there tested positive and he's itching to get back to see his dad (who is not well and has been isolating alone since March!!) but it doesn't look likely anytime in the future. Hopefully you will get good news before travel is even possible. Thinking of you!

Thank you! I feel so relived! When I am able to I am going to renew my passport as that ran out in March and get back to England as soon as its safe to, to see my family! Not seeing my Dad plus everyone else for a year and a half is killing me!

 

I hope your hubby gets back to Ireland soon!!

Have you not interviewed yet? 
I interviewed back in Feb but got an RFE. I was hoping the letter would confirm that they received it but it’s just a standard copy and paste and the status is the same as the one online. My EAD runs out August 14th I think I’m going to have to just renew it because I can’t see anything moving with my case before then 

December interview was cancelled by them because they didn't have all their documents in order.    My EAD / AP runs out in October and since I've learned that there is no renewal fee, I've gone ahead and submitted a renewal last week.   Another  4 hours of un-necessary work.

Hey fellow March 2019 filers! Just wanted to check back in to VJ since it's been a while and let people know where we're at, in case it's a comfort to anyone.

(Our filing office is the Washington DC one btw, which is actually located in northern Virginia)

 

So we were one of those unfortunate couples who had their interview scheduled just a few days after everything at USCIS completely shut down (scheduled for March 23), and since that one was cancelled, the case status has remained at "ready to be scheduled for an interview" for the last few months. I've got an EAD/AP combo card that is going to expire in October 2020, and after months of waiting, I've finally decided to go ahead and apply for a renewal, since who knows when that GC interview will actually happen. At this point, I'd be content to have it scheduled for February 2021, because then we'll already have been married 2 years and won't need to get the conditional GC. 

Anyway, that's where we're at. Anybody else planning to do the EAD renewal?

March filer here, waiting on interview.   Yes, just submitted for EAD/AP renewal to chicago lockbox.

I hope they just approve you without interview now! I submitted my EAD renewal a couple of weeks ago but not needed now. It's so frustrating but I hope you are almost at the end of this leg of the journey! Holding out my wishes for you!

This is due to USCIS moving card printing in house instead of relying on external contractor. Unfortunately they only have one printing facility set up and now they have sizable backlog of EAD and GC cards in need of printing got back to early July. 
Hopefully you will get it soon!
