Thanks Ice Man for your good wishes. Isn't it weird that the Officers take this long to schedule an interview and that they forget (or whatever happens) to request the DV case from the KCC? Anyway, I think that the KCC is very diligent so your file should be arriving soon. Best of luck!
Good luck to your sister and please keep us posted!
Quick question,
Do translated documents have to be mailed to Chicago as copies or originals, ex. High School Diploma??? It seems like it's safer to keep the original (stamped) document for the interview and mail a copy of it....or just pay another $20 to translate it again. Any suggestions???

Hello Norkira,
No document will be returned so they advice that you send photocopies whenever possible. You need to take the originals to the interview appointment. During the interview, you must provide a copy of any original document you wish returned.

I just checked my online case status and it has been changed back to "acceptance" from "initial review". is this possible? it was fine when i checked earlier this week. besides it has been three weeks and a day since i did my biometrics. i was actually looking forward to and interview letter.
We just had our interview this morning and it went GREAT !!! but we did not get a decision yet
We arrived 30 min before our interview time and they took us in 20 minutes later. The interview lasted about 10 min. The officer was very nice and professional.
We first took the oath and then he told us that he will not be approving or denying our case today because he still has to order our DV file from the KCC. He then proceeded to ask all the generic questions on the I-485's name, DOB, have you ever been convicted...........He asked us for our I-94 cards, passports, birth certificates, marriage lic. and DV selection letter. Thats it !!!
i2009, I also had an employment based I-485 pending. He did ask me " I assume that you will not be pursuing that case any longer, correct ? " i said yes offcourse. He did not make me sign anything that says that i am withdrawing that case.
At the end he said that everything looks good, he will request our file from the KCC and as soon as he gets it he will decide on the case. He did say that if nothing changes he has no reason to deny the case.
AND THE WAIT STARTS AGAIN !!!!
Congratulations, Iceman. I'm sure everything will be alright. Just a formality, the IO will order your file soon if he hasn't already. It normally doesn't take long.
Don't worry, Online status changes like that. You just have to be patient waiting for th einterview letter. Some offices are faster than others, as you can see in different signatures in the thread.
I hope your case will go smoothly.
I have been looking at peoples experiences after biometrics. It seems like it is the most time-consuming and the most unpredictable stage in application processing.
I guess they follow the principle of "better be safe than sorry" when they conduct background checks, i.e. they seem to prefer being overly careful and slower with security clearances rather than being lenient and fast in order to reduce the chances of ill-intended people slipping through this process.
Actually, the FBI is really efficient in running the fingerprint's (!!!fingerprint check is different from background check!!!) and returning the results to USCIS...you can call the FBI's info number and they will tell you when they return the fingerprint check to USCIS...

Congratulations Ice Man!!! I noticed you said "we," does that mean you and your spouse had the interview together? Is that always the case for married couples?
Hello gdh,
In my case, and I think in most cases, they send one letter for each applicant with a few minutes apart between appointments. It seems that the family group has the interview at the same time though.
It's odd that my wife's appointment is 30 minutes before mine, although I am the primary applicant. My daughter didn't get an appointment because she is younger than 14.
Congrats ICE MAN and all the others who's cases are progressing.
I'm pretty happy myself as I got the AOS fee receipt stamped back AND I finished my medicals. All I have to do now is make a copy of everything and send that baby off to Chicago.
Question, since my number is current in April, is it too early to ship the package now, in February??? Anyone had a bad experience by sending it this early??? Inputs are greatly appreciated

I think as long as your number is on the Bulletin, you are safe. But this decision is definitely up to you.
