Hey phoshilaron,

I have been in the same boat, only difference is my paperwork was sent back in September 2010 and I could not send it back until Feb 2011 but God willing everything has worked out well so far :)

All the best for the process...

Congratulations!!!!

Your interview is scheduled a day after mine :)

All the best with the preparations!
 
I hear conflicting info on the forums about this issue:
I plan to travel to Europe for vacation for 1-2 weeks in September and if I only have I-131 approved not green card by then.
Can I enter US without any problem. My H-1b will expire 10 days before my travel to Europe. Also I applied for advance parole not reentry permit.

Here is what I can tell you for sure.

You do not need a re entry permit unless you are planning to travel outside the US for 6 months or more. Also I-131 allows you to travel outside the US while your application is still under process, when you arrive back from your trip, at the port of entry into the US (whichever airport that may be) they will take you to a certain room to go through all your papers like passport, AP document etc. Carry your Govt issued ID's and all current USCIS papers so you can show them proof that your paperwork is under process.

Feb filers have had a few members travel on AP for a few weeks and return with no issues, however I must make it a point to mention that their cases were GC through marriage incase ur H-1B puts you in a different category....

Thanks Noella. Trying to get everything ready for the interview now.

I see that you have your EAD already. We have not received EAD yet. Is it common not to send EAD after all this time? I thought we would have received it by now.

As I see your timeline I saw that you saw your online status change to interview.

Sometimes they send you the physical IL and EAD around the same time :) so there is nothing to worry about.

All the best!

received email confirmation that my RFE was received and processing of my case has been reinstated, so hopefully i should get my EAD confirmation letter/email soon to then be followed by my IL letter.
 
Has anyone here gotten a combo card (E.A.D/A.P.) recently? I got mine and it only came by itself no papers for stamping should I decide to use it.
Is this normal?
