He doesn’t wanna say ! Makes me feel he is hiding a military secret! What kind of people are that???? We asked him which state not city or town! I even doubt his words no one had that fast processing unless he expedited it but no one get GC from asylum normally after 7 months! That doesn’t make sense

I appreciate your opinion, but I am free to determinate what info I want to share and which not, I think it is completely unnecessary to say my state of residence, I wrote my timeline because I wanted to shared my experience with you guys as orientation, being honest I don't have any necessary of lie, but yes I don't blame you, I could not believe it at the beginning for the experiences that I have been reading from others.
When I applied I sent my packet to the USCIS Phoenix Lockbox (I don't know if that info is useful).
Also I attached a pic of the approved letter that I received with the received date and the notice date, I hided the rest of the information as my name, address, Alien ID merely because I don't want to share that personal information.
Thank to those who have good vibes for me, I wish the best vibes for you too guys! and I wish the best luck to everybody in this process!
PS: Green card has not been delivered yet, but I have the tracking number, hopefully in a couple days I will receive it!

Congratulations again man but I really got mad that you didn’t say which state you filled from as it’s so normal I didn’t ask you personal questions as I’m always against it and didn’t ask for a specific thing just the state which is so normal and no harm for you but again congratulations and wish you all the bestI appreciate your opinion, but I am free to determinate what info I want to share and which not, I think it is completely unnecessary to say my state of residence, I wrote my timeline because I wanted to shared my experience with you guys as orientation, being honest I don't have any necessary of lie, but yes I don't blame you, I could not believe it at the beginning for the experiences that I have been reading from others.

Thank you, the best luck for you too!
Congratulations on your GC approval. Did you submit the i-693(medical) application along with your i-485 application?
It’s better to do that than waiting for them to send RFE!
Thank you for letting me know. I am planning to submit the i-131(travel document) application after I submit the i-485 . I have few questions regarding it.
Do I need to pay for i-131 ?
Will it make the i-485 process slow ?
No the GC processing fees have a free package with it if you want (EAD+Refugee travel document) and it doesn’t make it slow i mean if you file from Indiana you should send to Phoenix lockbox and it shall be transferred to Nebraska service center which was so fast but unfortunately now that doesn’t happen as all the i-485 goes to the national benefit center and lately many people got their Green cards so hopefully it means the USCIS started to finish the backlogs but we will see!!
i advise you to apply for the RTD now as it’s only $135 and it takes 8-10 months to get as it’s so long waiting time so try to make it now so you can travel in 9 months from now
If you send your I-131 application with I-485 package or after I-485 application, you don't need to pay. (only first application free, later applications you will need to pay). I paid for first RTD, it was before I-485 application. I send another RTD application with the package and I didn't pay for that.
I don't think it will affect the processing. Because I have sent them all in 1 package but when they received it they separated and sent each application to different locations.
Thank you so much. I am planning to send all the documents in one package (GC+RTD+EAD Renewal).
Is it okay to renew the A05 EAD a year before the current EAD expires?
Thank you so much for letting me know. I don’t have any travel plans at the moment so I am planning to apply for RTD with the GC application.
Good luck and i wish you all the best
I wish you the same.
I don't know.
I didn't renew my EAD. I got my unrestricted SSN card and I use that if I need. (To get unrestricted SSN just need to apply for a new SSN card, no need to prove or explain anything. )
Do you have any idea when you apply for a visa on your RTD if the embassy asks for your status in the US is the RTD alone is enough or you can send them a copy of the i-94 granted asylee status or will they need the EAD as i kinda lost my EAD A05 somewhere at the home but I can’t find it and I don’t need it either I’m just curious about applying for a visa on my RTD
I have never applied for a visa but I was planning to apply for Schengen (Via Italian Embassy) Visa. When I talked to Italian Embassy in NY, they told me proof of legal status but they didn't mention specific documentation.
If you are not a U.S. citizen and you need to apply for a visa, you must provide a copy of the title that allows you to reside legally in the U.S. (U.S. long term visa with exclusion of B1/B2, U.S. permanent resident card, I-20, I-797, resident alien card). The title must have a validity of at least 3 months beyond the last day of your trip in the Schengen Area.

That’s what scares me I don’t know if the RTD alone is enough or what !!!
Germany -Belgium-Netherlands doesn’t require visas for US RTD holder! U just take yr rtd and book a flight and that’s it
The Netherlands embassy in The US
……..
On this travel type of document, there is no visa required for the Netherlands. If you are traveling to any other Schengen country, you would have to check with the Embassy of the country directly.
I have tried to cut and paste the information for you here below, you will see that for the Netherlands, the visa is exempted. “yes” is for exemption.
Please note that this type of information can change at any time. If your travel date is far in the future, you are advised to check again just before you travel. The airline can also confirm this for you.
Again, if you are traveling to any other Schengen country, you are advised to contact them directly before traveling.
Visa exemption for refugees and stateless persons who are legally resident in a third country/entity listed in Annex II to the Regulation and are in possession of a travel document issued by the competent authorities of that country/entity

the pending I-485 cases under humanitarian category increased to over 6,000 this quarter (Q1 FY 2022) from 3,500 last quarter (Q4 FY 2021). And the daily pace of USCIS slowed down at least 25% since last week. (~ 600 vs 900 daily approval of I-485 LB cases).
I feel hopeless at this moment, my case has been pending for almost 2 years. Sigh…
