May 2011 Filers

asj: ive seen cases where they send IL before EAD....based on other people's timeline, i believe yours should be approved within a week or two.
 
My AOS interview experience today

I had my interview at 9am today. It all looked pretty harmless, just going through 485 and 130. The officer asked for proof of marriage and staying together which we had plenty. She seemed satisfied with what we gave. She went through the standard "No" questions in 485 too.

She took my i-94 and stapled it to my application packet. However, at the end she gave me a letter saying my application is being continued as they don't have my IBIS security check on file yet. She said we will hear from them in 1-3 months. She closed my file and wrote IBIS on the cover. I have never even heard of this check until today.

I haven't received any info on my EAD/AP application also (it's been 65 days) and I am wondering may be the delay is due to this check...Oh well, trying to stay positive and see what happens.
 
I hope to get my EAD/AP soon as well. It's been nearly two months now and no sign of any activity since the biometrics.
 
I have my interview next Wednesday (Jul 27th) and I'm starting to get nervous...ALREADY!

I was fine, not even remembering about this process. Now a week away, and the nerves are kicking in.:eek:

I am sure you will do fine. Take lots of pics and from what I have read in the forums here if you cant answer a question say "I dont remember" instead of "I dont know". I went through the process in 94 for my GC and now I am the USC and put in for my wife who is going through the process now.
 
Update at 2:15pm: card production ordered

To my pleasant surprise, I got the email/txt saying that card production has been ordered. Very very very relieved as I was worried this IBIS security check was going to take forever.

Thank you so much for all your insights and help...and what can I say! this board is probably the best when it comes to discussing family based AOS. I guess it's time to enjoy a cold one :)

Did the IO say that your application was approved or its just being forwarded... taking your i-94 sounds like its approved though... just wondering if the IO hinted a decision...
 
thanks! Polar. yes, a little over two months..I really really needed that EAD in 2.5 months when I applied, but super happy to get the notification on the card itself.

no hint whatsoever...All she said was "you will get a response in 1 to 3 months".
