DV 2010 AOS Only

I didn't meant it in a offensive way...but SSN does require for any new SSN applicant to come in person, so for a person who did CP that should be similar.

For a DL application the regualtions have changed recently and 2 forms of ID are required.

Here we go again....
 
Hi everybody!

I got my interview appointment, but I have some questions:

Congratulations...That was really fast. one day after your biometrics. it is supposed to be one and a half month after your biometrics. Most of dv cases timeline is like that. interview is 1-2 months later after your biometrics. But, you got one day later. interesting.

It varies. I had my interview letter even before i did the biometrics.
 
I am confused.

I got three message from uscis.

I think that the first one is welcome letter. Then, green card.

But today, I got an email saying:
Post-Decision Activity
On March 4, 2010, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I485 APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS. Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283.

For approved applications/petitions, post-decision activity may include USCIS sending notification of the approved application/petition to the National Visa Center or the Department of State. For denied applications/petitions, post-decision activity may include the processing of an appeal and/or motions to reopen or reconsider and revocations.

When I log on my account...it jumped form "Document production or Oath Ceremony" back to " Post-Decision Activity"

Should I be worrying about this???

Dont worry, this is most probably your green card : ) my last status update was the same exact message and i got the GC 5 days later in the mail. see my post couple of pages ago. i also got three different messages. one is sending of welcome letter, one is card production order (which i got twice), one is this one.
 
Hi middle.com,

Hopefully everything is fine as others have mentioned. Maybe you could call and confirm the appointment with the local USCIS office on that date!

When you were mentioning about your appointment paper I think you meant how you could upload you file on to this forum. If that is what you meant, first make sure that you have removed all the essential info about you from the scanned file. Then while posting the message you will see a clip sign, that is to add the attachment. Press it and it will open a new window for managing attachments. On the right side is the button which says "add files", click on it. That will open another window and you can select "Select file" option. After clicking on it you can select the file you want to upload to this forum. Once you select the file it will show up as an attachment on the bottom of the popup menu that opened when you started the process of attaching the file. Then you press the button "Insert file". Once you do that it should be added with your post and even before you post it you could see the attachment which would be posted. Hope that answers your question.

I tried to upload the file like you said, but it says invailed file( what size should it be???

Hi middle.com,

Congratulations on your interview letter.
It was fast alright but still normal.
When I checked the some of the time frames between
biometrics and interview dates so far I saw following.
There was 1 person got it in 15 days an 3 people got it in 18 days.
Of course there were 30 days , 60 days and 90 days as well.
So yours was on the fast track but still normal.
Congratulations I hope your interview goes smooth as well...
 
also here....my appoinment letter was on regular paper, nothing like the NOA (which is an official form and the appointment letter just a rather simple notice)....
I am gonna have my interview next Tuesday...gosh, I am anxious but in a positive way...
When it comes to timeline...I guess my case can be done within 3 month after filing...however, I wonder why I didn't get yet my EAD...I even put a service request on it and got a mailed notification about it but still, I assume it will be adjured together with my GC...makes me wonder, once I get the GC, do I still need the EAD or can I just get my SSC with my GC in my hands...?

Hello thomen,

EAD and AP are only needed when you are waiting for your AOS to be adjudicated and if you abandon your current status. Once you get your GC, then you don't need the EAD nor AP anymore.

Good luck
 
Hi thomen,

Most of the people apply for EAD concurrently with I-485
because a) It is free b) Just in case,
and in most of the DV cases people get their cards so fast
they don't even need EAds. Hopefully you'll soon get your
actual card and won't need EAD ever again.
I wish you and the others who will be interviewed
pleasant interviews and fast delivery of cards by USPS.

Thanks IceMan & cm1979...

Middle.com, my interview letter was on white paper...then on top...there is some writing with a red pen that got white out on top of it. I guess it is a very informal notice. I went through ok. I am sure that your letter is fine...
 
I am currently preparing docs for aos filing which is current for april. I have some questions with you guys and I hope for a quick reply.

1.is it g325 or g325-a we need to file?
2. What do you fill in item #16 of i-765?


i would appreciate if somebody whose process is over upload all of their forms (omitting some private information like ssn, phone number etc)
