Hey guys! Sorry I've been MIA! Just had my interview today and got approved!!! Woot Woot!! Thank you for all your well wishes! It truly means a lot to me! So our interview was scheduled for 2:15 today. We were running a little late coz hubby got caught up at work! However we got to the...

Janedoh that's a good sign. Once they order your EAD card, your status goes to card production. However when they actually mail you the card, your status goes back to Post-Decision Activity. It's a bit confusing but that's how USCIS works. You'll be getting your EAD card within the next day or...

The same thing happened to me! It first said my EAD was ordered on April 4th and now it says April 7th. I was surprised as to why they changed the date. But like thomkip mentioned, maybe the update means that it has now been mailed so hopefully we'll be receiving it very soon! Congrats...

Good luck for your interview Induz!! You'll be great and get your passport stamped!!

Ok guys, there is a constant threat of the federal government shutting down due to no consensus on the budget plans. Will that affect us in any way??? During the last shutdown, there were 200,000 passport applications that went unprocessed so does that mean USCIS will shut down too??? :(

Hey guys, Hope everyone is doing well. I just saw my status change for I-765 and I-131. For I-131 it says that they have approved my petition and mailed me a notice. And for I-765 it says that the card production has been ordered. I thought the card was combined and had the work permit as...

Ok why do these people take so long for the EAD/AP??? They send you the interview letter way before and then send the EAD/AP two weeks before the actual interview! What's the point of that??? I mean once the passport gets stamped, you can travel and work so I don't know why they even bother with...

Noella, I went in on a Wednesday. My appointment was for March 31st which is a Thursday. I don't think the day matters. Also, since your ASC is 4 hours away, you have a perfect reason to do a walk-in. Just tell them you were in town for an errand and decided to get it done since you live 4 hours...

Thanks for the well wishes guys! I am really happy. Does anyone know how to prepare for the interview? I heard there is a list of questions on this website as well. Can someone please post the link? Thanks!

Guys I just checked my status for my I-485 online hoping it would finally show up since none of my cases were showing up. Well I was in for a pleasant surprise!! It says that on March 25 (today) I was mailed an interview letter for April 28th!! I was so surprised because I was not hoping to hear...

Oh my god just ignore her! I don't know what's up with these ladies and trying to exert their authority. The same thing happened to me but I got it done as well! They make a big deal out of this even though most of the time, it's not even crowded and they can easily see a walk-in!

Congrats Noella!! That's great news! It pays to be patient :)

No updates on my end. Does anyone have a rough timeline about when we can expect to receive advance parole/EAD after we've had the biometrics appointment.

^ Yeah I guess so. Even though the whole place was empty and it wasn't even an inconvenience! I guess the lady was just trying to exert her authority. Honestly, if it really wasn't allowed she could have just told me so and I would have come back. But no, she had to make me feel guilty for...

Ok guys I got back from my walk-in biometrics. I got it done but I didn't have as pleasant an experience as the rest of you guys! I told the officer at security that I am here for an early appointment and he told me it was fine but when he saw my actual appointment date (03/31) he said that that...

Noella, maybe try calling again? Honestly I think it's a hit or miss when you call them. If you're lucky you get connected to a really nice person and if you're not, you get someone really rude at the other end! I know it's hard but be patient. I am sure your case is moving along just fine since...

Received my biometrics letter today. My case was a little slow to proceed because I had a special case but hopefully things are moving along now! Thank God! Ok do you think I can go early for my biometrics. Do all field offices take walk-ins on Wednesday? How can you know since there is no...

Hey guys, Are your applications being processed at the National Benefits Center? My application number starts with MSC.

Yay I just saw my checks have been cashed today so this means I should be receiving the NOA's next week! So happy!!!

Yes I did. Also, when I filled out the I-485, it asks whether you have applied for permanent residence before and also asks for the final disposition. I mentioned that I had applied for permanent residence, was granted it and then voluntarily surrendered it in July 2007. I think they are...
