Maybe they lost the copy of the passport, as you said they are asking for proof of eligibility to work in the US, get the person's passport, social security card, etc and resend it.

Thanks Rabin. Have you and Lexin already deleted your signature? I cannot see the timeline in your post already. Anyways, I guess I can always go to the January post to find what happened at what time.

Congratulations! Hope the EAD will show up soon.

We applied about 1 week after you and the latest online updates were on 4/14. I'm wondering if you got any updates online before you received the interview letter, or it just showed up in the mail without any "hint" online? Thank you :)

Absolutely NO hint online, everything still shows up as under "initial review"......just a surprise letter in the mail.:rolleyes:
 
lol Thanks! I was checking online status everyday multiple times a day... hope we will have our letter soon and good luck on the interview :)

Congrats singh57. Good to see some more movement on our thread. So far we have 2 interview dates.

I have noted one thing from the previous forums tho, if you do a walk-in finger printing, that speeds up the IL procedure, but the EAD takes its normal time, i could be wrong but some of the time lines from previous month threads do point to this.

Yeah, congrats to singh57 and TDK. Hope everything will move very smooth from this point.

I am anxiously checking my mailbox everyday too for the interview letter. My husband and I are moving at the end of June. I really hope we can have the interview done in early June so we don't need to deal with the address change. Well, I guess there is nothing much I can do at this point but waiting. I just wish I had sent in that email/message form to get email update.

Good luck to everyone!

I also thought a walk in biometrics could speed things up, but after mine and a few others I have seen, I dont think it really has much to do with it. Those folks at USCIS really have no formula :):cool:

Hmmm..well Jason's argument looks compelling, but looks like either USCIS has no formula or all USCIS centers use different formula.....well we'll have see how it goes for rest of March ppl. In other news, no change in my online status as all yet...i was expecting I485 to move to "interview/testing" status.
 
Anyone has or had their interview in Atlanta? I mailed my application on 3/10 and checks were cashed on 3/17. Received receipts and completed biometrics as expected. It's day 58 today and haven't received IL yet. Am I within normal timelines for Atlanta or do I need to worry?

I am in the DC area, its day 65 and haven't heard anything yet either, so i guess this seems to be normal for our month.
I would suggest you include your timeline in your signature, to help others following this thread in the future.
