LOL - no, sadly that isn't true. No time machine involved - not sure how that date got in there...
I know you weren't responsible for that.

hi mom and everyone else
1. is there a timeframe for KCC to process an AOS package after it has been delivered? i gathered that it's about 20-30 days. have anyone got it processed faster?
2. and once it is processed, will a biometrics schedule immediately follow?
3. i noticed that a few people attempted to do the walk-in biometrics. is it that the earlier the biometrics is done, the earlier the interview date will be scheduled?
my sister is kinda freaked out when she read few people's experiencing unexpected delays for an interview schedule (simon included). by what date, roughly, should she be worried if she hears nothing from them? september seems like a long time from now, but it could be short if she keeps waiting not having some estimated deadline.
thanks!
OK so your pack has been received a couple of days ago. I would expect your case will be accepted around about the end of the month. You'll get an acceptance email/text/letter and you'll (later) notice the check has been cashed. Then you will get the bio appointment - as a guess it will be around mid August - and yes you can try a walk in. However, your interview won't happen until you are current. So - you are going to have to try and get your interview as soon as possible after Sept 1. That means you'll have to start nagging early, but realistically that is going to mean starting nagging around mid August. You can't do that until you have the receipt number anyway, so all your nagging will happen in mid to late August. By then we will have more info as to whether the expedite worked at all for me and others, but you have the infopass and congressperson options.

WOW CWH - that was WAYYYYY FAST!
Must be a good sign....
Hi, all. we just had our interview. and it seemed fine. standard questions, all documents, but at the end they give us a piece of paper that "Your case is being held for file review and you will receive a decision within 180 days. You dont need to submit any additional information at this time." How is that ? 180 days ? means we wont get green card ? we are so upset. what should we do ? we just cant wait so long. how is that possible ? thanks to all!

nope, she just took my wife's I-94did the officer write something in your passport?
Oh, just checked our status. its says, Card Production![]()
sounds good. ours also just turned to card production. do you have a tracking number on the page?Oh, just checked our status. its says, Card Production![]()
after 2 hours seeing the card production, just turned back to decision!
I'm in the same status as you are and noticed the same difference. The new number is referred as "USCIS A#" instead of just "A#". Not sure if it makes any difference but mine are different numbers as well. I go by the new number throughout the application process.Mom,
One more question for you. So I received the NOA's for both I-765 and I-485 and what I noticed is that my Alien # on both NOA's is different than the one I submitted in the AOS application and what I have on all my I-797 (H1B's)/ EAD cards. I have had only one A# throughout all my immigration history in US.
Is this change normal ?
