June 2020 AOS Filers

[bradoony 54]

Hello, guys! We had our interview in Lawrence, Massachusetts today and our case just got approved. So happy!!! 🥳

Timeline: 

25 June - Filled

28 august - Biometric

29 October - Interview

 

I want to share our interview experience with you. First they called me (beneficiary) and then my husband. Each interview was  around 10 15 min. 

Questions they asked both of us: 

- Names

- Siblings name and work occupation 

- Date and places of engagement and Wedding 

- Who proposed to who and What was the proposal like

- Did we go to the honeymoon

- My husband work position, work days and work hours and how many people work in his business.

- How we met and when

- Where I have been worked before on J1 and they asked him the same after. 

- What was my bachelor and master degree in. 

-  Then he went through "yes" and " no" questions from form I-485 

I think that was all. Very smooth and easy, officer was nice and polite. 

Thank you so much for everybody's help in the forum and Good luck!!

I just received my EAD and AP combo card today after getting the approval notices three days ago ☺️

my EAD case status still reads 'fingerprints were taken' so I was surprised to finally get my card! 

Hope everyone else is seeing some progress

Long time lurker; benefitted from others' posts on approvals so thought I'd do my bit as well:

Received my EAD/AP approval notices in the mail today.

Applied on 06/19.

First NOA: 06/22

Biometrics: 08/25

EAD/AP approved: 10/23 (received 10/29)

EAD/AP received: Soon I hope.

 

Good luck to everyone else still waiting for the EAD/AP. Hope everyone gets it soon too...

Quick update!

My online status changed to "Interview Was Scheduled" today! 

 

Waiting impatiently to receive the notice as I'm not sure where the interview will be....we moved temporarily from Los Angeles to Indiana and when I spoke to a Tier 1 agent they told me that the interview could still be in Los Angeles...

 

No matter what I am so EXCITED! Didn't expect this to move so quickly. 

 

HANG IN THERE GUYS!!! Sending positive vibes and my luck to you all!

So I did get a reply to the SR I placed on Oct 12. Here it is :- 

 

I don’t even understand what the service request was even placed for.

Ugh .. so frustrating .. waiting here on their response as well .. I guess it means "we have your case in our system, it will be scheduled at some point " so basically not giving any answer .. 

I would honestly call them , try to talk to tier 2 agent to get more details or maybe get them to schedule it for you..

I tried doing that too, but they were like we cannot transfer you to Tier 2 Agent as you will have to wait.

I heard from others that calling Monday morning first thing is the best chance to get a hold of someone in tier 2, maybe try again .. honestly I would call again until I get someone ... there is not much we can do other than this or wait honestly

I am waiting on my letter from the USCIS Missouri office, submitted October 6. I am sorry that you haven’t got some valuable information about your case.

I got exactly the same response!

And also no access to a tier 2 agent.

 

The frustration continues... lost my job offer as well... now all I need is for Trump to win another 4 years and I'll be done for!  😂😭

[Lisa Pr 88]

I  just chatted online with an agent and asked to be put in contact with a Tier 2 agent, they took my info , gave me a confirmation number and said I should get a call back from an agent within 7 days ... so the wait continues but hopefully they will call and provide more info..

Finally got my biometrics scheduled for December 3rd at the Alexandria (VA) ASC!!

 

I requested to speak to Tier 2 officer a week ago and they put me on a “wait list” and I finally got the call from a Tier 2 officer this morning! He asked me absolutely no questions and just told me what the earliest appointment was. I said I was going to be in Louisiana on November 30th so I asked If I could please have it December 3rd and he put me on hold but 5 minutes later he confirmed December 3rd. He said I would receive the notice in 2 weeks. I’m SOOO happy this actually worked!! After the call I got this email:
