    I posted in the other thread. basically the same as yours, but probably even shorter. We went to eat at a vegan place afterwards which was good. We explored Montgomery and took some photos.

    Happened to us. Green card was approved before the work authorization was. Waste of money.

    Interview was today and.. well that was easy. We go in, he asks us "is your name..." "Is your address still..." and a few other questions confirming details on the application hasn't changed. My wife and daughter signed a piece of paper, and he asks "do you have any question"? "no". "Well, your approved, I just have to finish processing this and you'll receive your card within 3 weeks.". We both felt mixed. Like its great it went so smoothly, but it felt like a massive waste of time??? We had to drive 3 hours each way, nearly $50 in gas, and it consumed our whole day, along with the hours it took to gather, copy, and organize the long list of "required" documents. The only documents we brought that were inspected were our passports and the interview notice. Nothing else was even touched or glanced at. Again, its great it went so smoothly, but it felt like a big waste of time, which is par for the course. I'll be excited once the green cards arrive and my wife can finally start working so we can open a business together.

    The original interview was scheduled to be tomorrow, but it was cancelled. We just got the online notice about it being rescheduled, which is nice. We won't know the date of the rescheduled interview until we get the letter in the mail.
  17. PokuPoku
    I just rechecked and the interview was actually just rescheduled just now
  18. PokuPoku
    Almost same here. AOS interview was scheduled for tomorrow... but then they canceled it. Still no sign of work authorization. Its ridiculous.

    They are more concerned about being a current risk of self harm than past.

    Not since Trump took office.

    If using the healthcare.gov marketplace, you won't be eligible in some states. I added my wife to my insurance, but she was kicked off after a few months since they said her status made her ineligible. She has to have either a work authorization or green card.

    Got the cancellation letter today and its just the generic "due to unforeseen circumstances we had to cancel your interview" message. So.... back to waiting I guess.. I really don't understand why they would schedule our interview and then cancel it a few days later.

    We got the letter in the mail yesterday saying her interview is on December 19th.. but I checked her case history online today and it updated saying on November 19th, her interview was canceled, and on November 20th, her case is "ready to be scheduled". Does anyone know what this could mean?

    Interview scheduled!!!!!!!!!!!! So happy!! Still no update on her work authorization (last update was ~28 days ago saying they transferred her case to another office), but so happy we got an update for the green card at least! For their cases, we can't check online, we have to wait until the notice arrives in the mail to see when the interview is scheduled for (please don't be December 4th or 5th).
  31. PokuPoku
    We were immediately able to find a slot ~3 weeks out once we were told we could schedule an interview.
  32. PokuPoku
    Nope. I was roughly equal to the income requirement, but I had ~$50k in assets.
