Are these good signs (or bad)?

[CAldridge4]

My husband and I were married March 22, 2010. We were lost in the immigration process and did not file until this year, after I had been here for almost 2 years. We had a child, who we lost at 2.5 months old to a heart condition.

I submitted the I-485, I-130 and I-765 on June 10, 2012 to the Chicago lock box. On June 13, they received everything. I got a notice on about the 15th saying they accepted my forms and all fees were paid. Today, June 28 I got a CODE 3(?) appointment notice in the mail for July 10. This seems to be moving faster than I expected...

-Is all of this a good sign?
-What does "code 3" mean?
-What can I expect at the appointment?
-If for some reason I am denied, will they deport me from the appointment?
-Does my husband (petitioner) need to be at the appointment?
-When can I expect to get notice for my I-765 and green card?

Sorry for your loss. It just means you have an appointment to get your biographics taken, no interview yet. You dont need your husband there. This is just the first step. You have another month or so to get an interview letter and then another month or so to the interview date.

Patience!

A fingerprint (FP) notice will contain a code number, indicating what biometric information is to be collected:Code 3: 10 fingerprints, photo and signature. You will receive an interview notice in a few months (which your husband must attend with you). After this you will be approved for a green card.

Code 3 means they will take your picture and fingerprints.

Given that you have a child together and have been married for over 2 years, it is very unlikely you will be denied, and they won't attempt to deport you before the interview unless you get arrested for a deportable crime before the interview.

Make sure to bring the child's birth certificate, death certificate, and medical records to the interview.

You can expect to get the I765 approval 2-3 months after you filed the application, and the green card interview about 3-5 months after you filed the application.
