Bad\Messed Up Interview Experience - Pittsburgh, PA
Hi All,

Yesterday me and spouse had the AOS interview which did not go quite well.

EB-2 (ROW) [Indian Citizen Born Outside India] Timeline:
PD: 03/01/2017
AOS (I-485, I-765, I-131) filing received by USCIS on: 11/16/2017
Biometrics Completed on: 02/13/2018
EAD & AP (Combo Card) approved by: 02/15/2018
Case transferred to another office: 02/23/2018
Received EAD & AP (Combo Card) by: 02/27/2018
Case Was Transferred And A New Office Has Jurisdiction: 02/27/2018
Case Is Ready To Be Scheduled For An Employment-Based Interview: 03/16/2018
Employment-Based Interview Was Scheduled: 04/05/2018
Employment-Based Interview Date: 05/15/2018

The interview part went well, Immigration Officer asked us some regular Yes\No questions and then asked me some Employment-Based questions, verified my Employment Verification Letter, our EAD Cards & Driver License. Then towards the end he\she ran a check on our applications and said that everything looks good. After that the Immigration Officer said that he\she is going to check if visa number is available or not. Then he\she said that my visa number has regressed and that i would have to wait for sometime in order to get my green card (approx 3-6 months or maybe even more). I told that my chargeability falls under ROW, but the Immigration Officer is like even though your filing is under ROW you are a Indian Citizen (I was confused). Towards the end he\she said that they would approve it and send the application back to NBC (did not make any sense to me).

After the entire interview process, i consulted with the attorney who filed my application and he said that its an issue from the USCIS Immigration Officer and i would have to wait for approx 2 weeks to see if the USCIS Immigration Officer's supervisor corrects the issue. If i did not receive any updates about my case or any additional information in 2 weeks or so, i will have to contact my local Congressional Office and submit an inquiry and then the Congressional Office will then reach out to the USCIS to have the issue reviewed and corrected.

I'm worried about what's going to happen next. I don't know if any of you have faced such an issue, please do share your experiences and thoughts.

Thank You.
