wow, this is just getting more and more ridiculous. well, as i said in the other thread, i was in the same situation, and the officer told me at the first interview to toss the second notice. "clerical mistake, it's the government, you know," he joked. anyways, your green card is approved...

How does the card arrive? I had my interview on Thursday, August 24. Passport was stamped, and the officer said the card would arrive in 4-6 weeks. I recieved an email yesterday, August 28, saying that the application had been approved and a card ordered. Since I am currently outside the...

disregard second letter sorry for the delay in posting a response. since the interview i have been in transit back to afghanistan. i had the most pleasant interview experience i could have imagined, got the stamp in my passport, and the officer said that i could just toss the second letter...

I called the USCIS customer service line again yesterday, and the woman said that she's "never heard of such a thing", that interview notices usualy come on official USCIS letterhead, and that there's no way we have to go to both interviews. She also told me to send a letter asking them to...

Yes, i just filed AR-11 since I recently moved (within the same city)! What makes you ask that?! What's the connection between the AR-11 and the second, unofficial looking interview letter? Will we have to go to the second interview? I've never heard of anyone with two green card interviews. I...

I got the same letter!!! I got the same kind of letter, also dated July 27, but from the Fairfax VA district office. Same thing, totally unofficial looking, typos, no "to reschedule, call" or anything. Just a bad photocopy job with a change of address form attached to it. It didn't have my...

Thanks. I have called the 1-800 number three times, the first time they told me I had to go to both interviews, the second time they told me I should write a letter to the district office to find out, he third time they said I should "probably" go to the second interview. Wow. Anyways...

I received an I-797C dated July 6 saying that our interview is on August 24 and listing a lot of hing to bring. Then I got a second letter, not on official USCIS letterhead, dated July 27, asking us to appear for an interview on September 14 and with a shorter list of things to bring. The second...

I got the same email, saying they canceled the interview, even though I had never heard anything about an interview. I called, and they said not to worry about it. Maybe they cancelled it before they even sent out the letter. This probably means that you're nearing the end of the process, and...

I totally agree with you guys. My husband and I are flying back from freakin Afghanistan for a week to attend the interview, which was scheduled much sooner than I thought. You think that's cheap or convenient? No, but for me my green card is more important than anything else (barring family...

My husband and I are both working in Afghanistan for the summer, we left at the end of April. My AOS interview is on August 24, at which point we will be back in the US. I got my advance parole and all before we left, so am I right in thinking that there is no reason to hide the fact that we've...

It wasn't a renewal, it was my first EAD. I have been on H1B until now, and my i-485 is based on marriage. My RD was Dec 27. I got my AP in mid-February. According to the InfoPass guy my EAD was approved on Feb 16 but I have no proof of that as of yet. He said I'll get the card a couple of weeks...

i had a different experience... http://www.immigrationportal.com/showthread.php?t=204933

I just came from my InfoPass appointment at the Washington DC service center, where I (like so many of you) had gone to beg for an iEAD before the 90 days had passed. Here's my story, which differs a lot from other members' experiences: I told the USCIS officer I needed an iEAD, because my...

My H1B expires on March 1. My notice date for my AOS package, incl. i-765, is Dec 27. So I will have to wait until March 27 to get an interim EAD. Now, what do I do for those 27 days in March? What's the risk with working? Can I use up paid vacation and sick leave? Can I take unpaid leave? I...

Thank you so much for the advice and the links. I am on a marriage-based AOS and my current H1B expires March 1. Is there any way to speed up the AP process. I haven't heard a thing since I got my initial Notices of Action back in December. I've been trying to find an AP timeline on the Forum...

I'm hoping maybe one of you will be able to advise me on my unusual situation. My ND is Dec 27, and I haven't heard anything yet about fingerprinting. Now, I just got an offer for a well-paying job with an international organization in Afghanistan. If I were to leave the country after doing the...

G-325A confusion So I have to fill out 2 sets of G325A, and my husband one. But do we have to fill out the same information on all 4 pages for each of the sets? Why do they make it so incredibly difficult...

I am an H1B married to a USC about to file the whole I-485 package. Two short questions: 1. We were married in Virginia. At the bottom of our marriage certificate is written "This is not a certified certificate." Any idea if this will make a difference? Getting a certified certificate will...

I am an H1B married to a USC and about to start assembling the paper work. I have a few quick questions: 1. I understand that the I-485 with all supporting forms shouuld now be sent to Chicago. But should we still send the I-130 to the local service center (we live in DC) and only submit a...
