I had my interview last Thursday. I went there with my lawyer; the atmosphere in general was calm and friendly. The officer, Mr. Whetherby, started going through my I-485, got interested in all my previous visas. But... my old A-file with all visa paperwork was lost by INS some time ago. So the officer said he wants to request the temporary file they created when my i-360 was approved. So i have to wait for the decision in mail. It really pisses me off because the original petition approval took 3 years instead of 8 months because they lost my file, and i have to pay for their mistakes. :mad:
 
Did he at least give you a timeframe for when you can expect the decision? What did your lawyer say about that?
Hopefully you will hear from them soon.
 
No, he did not.He just said to wait for the decision in mail. My lawyer said it takes them minimum 3 weeks to receive the file. Everything else will depend on how busy (lazy?) the officer will be. I guess weeks to months. But if too long, I ll contact my Senator's Office again - they were helpful once, so maybe they'll help again.
