Mine was less than a week- I think 5 or 6 days.

Congratulations to everyone getting their approvals! That's so exciting.

[LaLaRI 33]

Wooo congrats to everyone!! Hopefully we get the green card appointment soon!! 😊 for those that are still waiting just be a bit more patient it’ll come unexpectedly! I wonder if there have been situations where the combo card is produced and then within the next month the appointment for the interview has been set??

Went for the interview today. It was a separated interview. Right after we went in, they asked me out and interrogated my husband. Then let me back in and asked me the same questions. Then approved and congratulated us. They separated every couple that came for the interviews today.

Congratulations, Kristina.

When I check my status, it says Interview was completed and the case must be reviewed. But IO did say it's approved and to expect green card in a week. I'm frustrated if it's good status change or not.

I believe I had this status at one point, too.  You will notice your status will start changing often at this point.  If you were told you were approved I believe you are good.  So smile.  🙂

No it won't. A change of address is just that, a change of address. I see that you are quite impatient to get things moving with your case but the best thing one can do here is just wait it out as much as it's a pain to do so.

The spouse does not file the I-864a no. Because in this case we are assuming that the spouse has had no way to work, hence no income to be used jointly with the sponsor (being you in this case)

The one who would fill out an I-864A would be the household member of say, for example, a joint sponsor that you were to use. 

So take our case for example, we used my husband's parents income to help solve our RFIE. His dad (joint sponsor) filled out a SEPARATE I-864 and his wife (household member) fills out an I-864A since my husband does NOT live with them. An I-864A while not necessary, many adjudicators like to see and may even ask for a RFE for one since they like to know that the other party is informed, awared and consenting of having not only their partner's financial support but to also demonstrate their support towards the immigrant. Mind you, this household member is NOT a 2nd joint sponsor. (this was for our case specifically, I don't know how it works if a joint's sponsor partner lives separately and other scenarios) 

 

This whole I-864 thing is a nightmare, I know, I had to gather up everything in a matter of days as I wanted to respond to our RFIE in a timely yet well composed way, as I always tell everyone Sir Google really is your best friend and if you find it all too confusing, don't be afraid to make a separate post in the forum  explaining your situation and your specific questions as there are many lovely people here who are willing to help (they've helped me with all my questioning haha)
