DV 2014 AOS Only - New Thread

thanks mom and simon for sharing your thoughts. i hope that everything will be alright with her. i will start my asylum process soon (with my lawyer, of course).
 
Guys I really do not get it. Finally my status was “On September 10, 2014, we mailed the new card directly to the address we have on file. You should receive your new card within 30 days.” And then it was changed again to “On September 10, 2014, we mailed you a notice that we had registered this customer's new permanent resident status. Please follow any instructions on the notice. Your new permanent resident card should be mailed within 60 days following this registration or after you complete any ADIT processing referred to in the welcome notice, whichever is later.”
What is going on there? Where should I get this card? Thanks.

Your sister had the same exact experience that I had last Friday. My file was also kept for additional review. They handed me a slip in which was stated that they have all the required documentation and will reach out if they identify anything missing. There is no hold up in the system (DV file, AOS package and bakcground checks are all cleared). They also know the case is time sensitive.

I have been "stalking" them with phone calls and also requested another expedite request on case adjudication. Today someone from FO called back and asked me to give it time until next Wednesday.

That has been my experience and I have no idea why they are doing it in fact. I would like to think that there are taking their time.

What I have done so far and what she can also do are:

  1. Set 2 infopass appointments (you can do the second one by switching the last name as first name :p )
  2. If you don't see the status updated within 5 days, raise another expedite request for case adjudication with the National Service Center.
  3. Get engaged with your congressmen local office. Ask them to ask whether the process has bottlenecked ?
Hope this help and have faith. It's hard as I'm going coucou myself, few more days hopefully ...

You will also be approved and you will soon come back to say 'yeah, mom told me to stop worrying over nothing, I just didn't listen' :p

I know it's easier said than done, but I believe you will sail through, hang in there.
 
Good luck with that.
the one who had the interview after my sister and was told the same thing just told me that he already got an email notifying him about the card production. congrats to him!!!

man, what took my sister's IO so long? :( anyway, it seemed rhat he got a different IO from my sister's!

Don't worry, you should be fine as long as you have all the necessary documents. I had my interview on monday and they gave me a RFE since I didn't have my original birth certificate. They took a copy of the translation and told me to come back with the original. If you were missing any documents did they give you a RFE? If not the visa offices will approve the case by him/her self. Track your case on the USCIS web site and make an info-pass to meet with an agent. They have all the information regarding your case and might even call your interviewing officer to check on the holdup. Have some faith, I was also really worried since my interview was scheduled in september.

Wow - looks like I won the bet! Let's start betting on Urbanite - maybe it will get the case moving. I'll take by Friday at 5pm (Pacific).

Hello everyone! I'm so glad that I found this website. I'm 2014 winner and I got my interview today. The officer didn't tell me if I'm approved or not. He gave me a paper that says held for further in
reviews. He said he's gonna call and email me before 09/30. And also he took my I-94. I don't know if it's a good sign or not. Anyone had any same situations? And anyone got denial? I'm so nervous :(((

Fingers crossed!!! It's so hard to wait. My status is still in ACCEPTANCE. It has never been updated. Is it normal or some system mistake?

That is normal. Once you are approved it will go to CPD, then back to decision then CPD again - so don't worry when you see that.

Taking the I94 is a good sign. If you read back a few posts you will understand why they sometimes say a review is needed. It happened to member CWH (actually his sister) and she got the CPD update a few hours later. However some have waited a couple of weeks for the same thing. Keep us informed would ya?
