My GC was approved at our interview in Los Angeles today, 125 days after I sent the package in to Chicago. I have to say, this has been a no-frills but efficient and straightforward process all round, completed with a very pleasant and brief encounter with the USCIS today.

How long can I expect to wait before my actual card arrives in the mail? It's the one question I didn't ask today, doesn't matter really but it would be nice to know.

Here's my final timeline, from start to end. Good luck and thank you to all on this board who have helped me 'keep the faith' through this process.


Marriage-based concurrent I-130 / I-485(AOS) with I-765(EAD) from Los Angeles, filed by mail at NBC in Chicago. Current H1B, married to USC.

Day 01 04/16/05 Mailed package to NBC in Chicago.
Day 03 04/18/05 USPS online tracking confirms delivery.
Day 07 04/22/05 Received green USPS return receipt.
Day 07 04/22/05 All checks cashed by USCIS.
Day 08 04/23/05 Received NOA's for I-130, I-485 and I-765.
Day 10 04/25/05 Called to schedule fingerprints & biometrics.
Day 13 04/28/05 Fingerprints & biometrics appointment.
Day 60 06/14/05 EAD approved - e-mail received.
Day 63 06/17/07 EAD mailed - e-mail received.
Day 67 06/21/05 EAD received by mail.
Day 70 06/24/05 Received AOS interview notice from MSC by mail.
Day 125 08/18/05 USCIS AOS interview - GC approved & stamped in passport.
 
Congratulations! You will receive your card in maximum 10 days (Knowing from my brother's experience). If you do not mind please share with us your Sex and Nationality.
Thank you very much!
 
Your DO is doing good...people check LA processing time, for everything is 2005. AOS is April 2005 so they call you right away...so that means we should believe in the processing times? I thought that LA will be one of the busiest, probably is one of the biggest too.

Have a nice beginning!

Hi ,
I remember you from another thread. We had a similar case. I am from LA too and I was at the interview on 08/18 just like you :) I received my card on Monday, the 29th. They made a mistake tough. I wanted to add my married last name and they made a spelling error. Now I have to file for a replacement and do the biometrics all over again.
