My husband and I had our interview on January 11. Finally yesterday Jan. 13 the case's online status changed to: 'Card being produced'

We are beyond ecstatic, as it was a fortunately a very speedy process for us (7 months!) 

I wish everyone a speedy process as well!

For lucky few its speedy....for most it's not.

Quick Update Guys;

I had my interview today.

It went well and we were called in together and the gentleman asked my wife how we met and our address.

Then he asked me when i came to the country and if i work and then the Yes/No questions.

He handed us the Recommended for Approval Letter and after a couple of hours my status changed to "New Card Is Been Produced"

We are so happy after 8 months we are finally get the 2 yr conditional residence (Until 1 yr and 9 months from now :).

 

Good luck to you guys and who ever is waiting that day will come until then enjoy life with your loved ones and have fun as much as you can.

its sucks but what can you do. keep up the faith.

 

Cheers.

No updates on EAD or AP yet but AoS changed to "Ready to schedule an interview". I guess it's a generic message. How about yours ?

Thank You.

thank you

No updates on EAD/AP. The case was transferred to FO last November, after that radio silence. I am just raising SR and waiting for an update. 

 

Mine is not in the "Ready to schedule an interview" stage....so I am guessing it's going to be a long journey for me

I understand your frustration with the process - But do you honestly think that these posts EVERY time someone else gets positive news are helpful?  There are many waiting longer than you.

First, I made no comment critical of you. 

 

Kindly save your opinions on my frustrations.  You honestly have no basis to understand what most are going through if your case was finished in 7 months.

 

Good for you though. Happy for you.

 

My entire problem with this process is the unfairness and the randomness of the results.  People waiting far longer than you, and yes me, for no other reason than they have the wrong person holding their case files.

 

Also, I wasn't aware I needed to screen my posts with you to determine their level of "helpfulness before commenting.

 

I guess that's next thing in the new culture..."helpfulness police".

I just got an update for the I-130 today which I had filed online.

 

Quote

On January 19, 2021, we approved your Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, Receipt Number IOEXXXXXXXXXX, and sent you an approval notice. Please follow the instructions in your notice. If you do not receive your approval notice by February 18, 2021, please go to www.uscis.gov/e-request to request a copy of the notice. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

So at least one part is moving. I am still waiting on Biometrics and it seems that this might be the only thing holding it up. When I reach out to USCIS they are now just giving me a basic response saying that the case is in line waiting fingerprints and that COVID-19 has delayed the process. I hope with the I-130 approval, it means things might move faster.

*Packet was mailed without I-693 medical. Will wait for an RFE and take it to the interview. Also, tax transcripts were not available at the time so copies of the tax returns were sent and a cover letter explaining why. 

 

**Included tax transcripts in RFE response since I was now able to gain access since sending the application.

Received the interview notice by mail ! woohoo 😀
Still no updates on EAD or AP but at this point I gave up on those ! 

 

Congrats! I was thinking our "batch" is lucky in the sense that we did not have to pay for the new hefty fee for i-765 and end up in a situation where it will not be necessary anyway!
