Technically, you're now on AP and there's usually no guarantee as to when they will/may look at your case again. A lot really depends on how much work the CO has on his plate by the time missing documents are sent in. Not trying to scare you, just want you to prepare for the possibility of nothing happening on Monday before you start driving yourself crazy.

You have to report taxes for each year and in the case of a new LPR being in the USA even one day means (technically) that you have to report taxes for the whole year. Given the USA interest in income in the world, that means you should report on income in your home country for the year. In reality, this won't be an issue unless the taxman wanted to be a pain (like an audit) but it is a technical obligation that you could avoid by coming in 2015.
I should add that the first year choice makes it simpler, but anyway, my point is not to scare you about paying tax, just the paperwork....

prince john nobody and nothing should scare you, Embassy staffs are also humans they will always consider the magnitude of applicants case, meaning they have categories of cases and yua case is just simplest, am saying this without any point of doubt coz I know of a guy, his knec cert had not reached the EMB by the time of interview fortunately they received it the nxt day, Emba had to call him the same day to send his passport for visa printing so his AP was less than a week so PJ it's just a matter of time bro, meanwhile it's advisable to call the consulate coz it wil make no harm, may God be wth yu!

There is a guy with a same issue as you here south-africa!
He had his interview on the 17th july, and his status remains ready, although he received the green paper, and he was told that his visa is granted!
He phoned the embassy, and they kept telling him, that they will let him know, when his visa is finaly printed-out.
So I guess its got to do with that printing system still. For the guys that got interview and granted visas in late july! ( Not all of them of course).

TYT - there are only a few things that can cause you actual problems. So - some simple questions - answer them all.
1. You are a Kenyan living in Sierra Leone - correct?
2. Did you do medicals before the interview?
3. What education standard have you achieved?
4. You are applying as single - right?

So I think your case should be straightforward. Your AP was probably unavoidable and hopefully it will be over soon. There are other cases where CEAC shows ready when in fact the case is on AP, so the biggest mystery is why you were not given a colored piece of paper at the end of your interview.
