Thanks for your reply, efmef!
You will receive Welcome Notice for I-485 by e-mail and later your parents will receive this notice by mail very soon. After that, another e-mail will be sent to you about case I-485 be approved, then get GC 2-3 days.

And later, if your Parents receive I-130 approval letter by mail, can you post here?

Thank you!

I-130

Today I've got the approval letter for the I-130 in the mail (only for my mom though), however I have only received a "Courtesy copy" since the original has been sent to our attorney ... We are still waiting for the welcome letter and the actual green card.

I'll keep you posted!

Congratulation and thanks!
 
Any updates from March filers?? Some Feb filers were starting to get IL's in June... any March people getting IL's yet?
 
IL received but no EAD or AP

I received my interview letter in May. My interview is on 17 Jul (next week). But I have not heard anything on my EAD or AP. Since my interview is next week, I am not following up on my EAD or AP. I am on a wait and see mode here.

Hey Mayachagal! Good luck with your interview tomorrow. I am happy for you that your case went along so smoothly.
 
Little Bit Nervous

Thanks Foggazer... Hope everything goes well tomorrow and I don't hit a snag like "Name Check Issue". Keeping my fingers crossed. All systems are go on my end ... Hope the same is true on USCIS end too ;)!

Did you hear anything on your EAD and AP? Does not seem like any of the March filers are hearing anything on this. Strange!
 
Interview Approved But ...

I went for my interview yesterday. My interview was at 9:00am. Got there around 8:35am. We were called in at around 9:20am. Overall the interview lasted around 15mins. In total we were asked 5 questions (I think). Three of them were directed to my husband and two to me. Questions:

To my husband:
1) When and where did you meet your wife?
2) Did you two take any trips while you were dating?
3) What was your marriage ceremony like? Was it a big wedding or a small wedding?

To me:
1) What does your husband do?
2) What time does your husband normally get home?

At the end, the IO said, "I am glad to inform you that your petition has been approved ... Congratulations. However, I cannot stamp your passport today because your background check is still pending. It should be done within 4 weeks and you will receive your GC then." She then went ahead and stamped I-485 pending on my passport, took the I-94 card and explained the conditional green card thing. She also told my husband that the I-130 has been approved (though I don't see the update on the web!). She took three photographs for the records and all documentation requested to proved that ours' is a bona fide marriage (bank statements, credit card etc).

It sucks that I did not get the stamp but it was kind of reassuring because she mentioned a few times that I should get my background check cleared within 4 weeks. Her words, "I don't see any ground to disapprove your petition and why your background should not be cleared!". So a little bump in otherwise a smooth process :rolleyes:!
