PraetorianXI,

you can add me to the list. I'll make sure to post my AOS interview experience. I just found this forum a couple of days ago and I've find it very informative. Thanks to all! what stands for AP?

Welcome to the thread! AP = advance parole
 
Ap

I didn't apply for AP. I thought could wait until I get the GC. We are hoping we get it soon, so we can go out of the country for our first wedding anniversay on Nov. 25. What I really need is my EAD.
 
Praetorian, I think you should go into the business of improving those immigration trackers!

Just when I thought we were set for our vacation immigration-wise, now it looks like my wife's passport renewal (due to name change) might take longer to process than we thought. :( There's a 10-12 week processing estimate for US passports from the DOS, but hers is taking 14 weeks already (we are a little more than 3 weeks away from our vacation).

Inofficial estimates I've seen are 14-18 weeks, so if you are planning to travel with your spouse and he or she still needs to get a passport, don't believe the 10-12 week time frame that DOS claims. In travel forums I now see suggestions for people to request expediting ($60 more) even if their trip is three to four months away.

What's worse is that apparently it doesn't work the way it does with our immigration applications, where they are processed in the order they arrive, and those of us with similar ND's have similar time lines. I read many stories of folks sending their regular-processing passport app's in June who are getting them now, while those who applied in March or April are still waiting. Maybe DOS decided it's better to piss fewer people off, leave the old filers behind and tend to the newer filers. :mad:

The moral of the story is that DOS should look at USCIS as an example of a better processing structure, and that's a sad thing to say. :D

My wife renewed hers (due to name change as well) and we paid the expedite fee and got it within 2 weeks :).

You can still request that, if you put in a call, and hold for like 5 hours until they actually pick up the phone. :p

I think we'll go with the "call your friendly local congressman/woman" instead, if we don't get it in another week. Already have all their contact info. Have read some good success stories (someone got theirs fedexed the next day!).

Congrats Dee.......so all of us have ILs now........lets start the ball rolling for the EADs now!

Lets not get carried away,shall we... There are others who have not received their ILs in this thread and are patiently waiting w/o posting "where is my IL" or "when am I getting my IL" every single day. So a little bit of sensitivity would be helpful here. Congrats to nehasharma and dee :). Good luck for the interview.
