Hi, I see in this thread 2 people from my DO (SF,CA). Rjo1, I think you are from same DO. Can you tell me when did you got your IL and after how may months from ND? I have not got my IL, I am soo worried :(

Thanks in advance
 
IL was received around 50 days after ND.

Thanks Rjo1. Today is my 49th day. So may be I should get IL in this week..Hopefully. I see your interview is coming up. Good luck and do post your experience.

I thought your IL letter came is less than a month, so I got very worried. Also most of the may filers have got IL (but they r from different DO) made me more tensed. Anyways, gud luck to u :)

my timeline in Salt Lake City

Hello,
here is my timeline:

I-485 mailed on 04/24/2007
NOA: 05/04/2007
Biomatrics: 05/18/2007
LUD: 05/21/2007


then it's been almost two months now, the case is still pending in NBC.

I wonder if it's a normal timeline and if anybody is filing in Salt Lake.
 
I did it!!

How did ur interview go?

Hi everybody!!! I am a conditional permanent Resident!!! we did it!!! well, let me tell you about my interview. My interview was at 10am yesterday, and we arrived there at 9:50. We waited for half an hour, and when I was in the bathroom they asked for my name....I always do the same.... ;) . The IO had a realy serious face, she wasn't smiling at all. She made us swear that we were going to say the truth. After that, she asked for my passport, driver's license, EAD and AP. She asked too for my husband's birth certificate. Then she asked us when and where we meet. ANd after that we had to show her some photos. She saw all the photos, and other things as letter from family members, boarding passes for common trips...She asked if we were living together, how long we have been living together in the present address, and then we had to give her leases, bills in both names, my husband's life insurance with my name...

Then she asked my husband is he would mind doing the interview in spanish. He said no. And he started speaking in spanish. She was impressed, and she relaxed after that. I guess, it made a good impresion that my husband speaks my country's language!!

After that, she started asking me what I was studying...blah, bla, bla.....and after that she approved us!! she told me that my name was cleared and that fromyesterday I am a conditional permanent Resident.

One advice for all of you that will have the interview soon: keep everything organized, like in different plastic folders or something like that, so you can find everything fast. Be serious but relaxed..and good luck to everybody. If was able to do it (I get super nervous for this kind of things), you can do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good luck everybody!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


(Note: she didn't stamp my passport, but told me that I would get my greencard in two weeks)
 
you are very lucky to have the interview date already.
I am based in Salt Lake City and had my biomatrics done on May 18th, 2007.
It's July 11th, 2007, but I still haven't heard anything.
my USCIS account indicates that my case is still pending in NBC.
I can't wait for the IL to come soon.
Hope your interview goes well.
