I called them up and asked them to expedite my request as I have completed 90 days. I told them that I am going to lose my job (12/31 was indeed my last day at work).

Also google ombudsman and you will get his email. Send them an email with receipt number etc. If possible make an infopass appt..this will help.
 
I-485 and I-130 based on marriage from Dallas

Please let me know if anyone has filed for AOS (I-485 and I-130) in september 08 from Dallas, TX.

I received my EAD and I-131 but I did not receive my interview date so am curious on the timeline
Please let me know if anyone else is in the same situation and if anyone received any updates


OCTOBER filers have already been scheduled for interview and I dont see anyone from Dallas getting the letters for interview. Is it because Dallas service center is slow? Please let me know your thoughts.

Thanks

Some one please kindly advice. I concurrently filed I-485 , -130, EAD and travel document for my wife by the end of last year. In today I received her finger print notice but haven't received any notice of receipt. Is it normal? Usually does USCIS send the notice of receipts for all four applications (485, 130, EAD etc) in one envelop or send each notice of receipt in separate envelop? Thanks in advance.

hey cllin123! as to me I got receipts for the forms I filled in different envelopes. so I guess should you. but as long as you received FP notice you should be fine.
 
OK, never mind I just checked my email...

Application Type: I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS

Current Status: Card production ordered.

On January 10, 2009, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you.

Best of luck to everybody whose interviews are upcoming!!!
 
so folks i just got my GC interview today and i can say that it went well :).the interview app. was at 10:45am,we were at the waiting room at 10:25 submitted our letter and sat down.we were called in about 35-40 min. by a middle aged man who walked us to his office.he told us that the interview will be video recorded, then he sword us and asked us to sit down.he asked for my wife's ID and my passport,then he open a folder with our case(all the forms we submitted).asked us for our names,SSN,place of birth,and birthdays.then he asked my wife where she works,and what is her position there.then he asked when we got married (2005)and he asked why we waited so long to file for GC,which we explained and he said that it makes sense,then he asked me what i was doing for that time.he asked the questions from the I485 i answered NO to all of them:).oh and i forgot to say that few times he asked me have i ever left the country i answered no ,then he start questioning my wife about our relationship:
1 where we met
2 what was she doing by that time
3 who proposed to who
4 did i give her a ring
5 how long we've been in CLE
6 where we got married
7 how many people were at the wedding(just the 2 of us)
8 are we planing on having a bigger ceremony(we said yes maybe for our 5th anniversary)
he asked my wife if i gave her any money to marry me just for the GC and then he asked me what i like about her.those were all the questions we were asked.he wanted to see some pics and other proof of our life together.we gave him a copy of our lease,bank account,car and health insurance, the IO said that was enough and he will approve my case,he said that i will get the 10 year card:D.he said the card should arrive no late than 8 weeks.while doing that he was signing some papers,he said i can apply for citizen ship in 3 years. i asked him are we done and he said yes.he wished us good day and we left.

that was all.we are very happy and relieved, it was easy not stressful at all.now i am waiting for the plastic to show in the mail.

good luck to all of you, be calm and prepared for the interview :)
