Adjustment of Status - I-485

Hello everyone,

I want to see if anyone else is having similar issues as I do. my PD is end of October 2017 and my EB1-B is current now, I already had the interview in June and the officer said She will approve it on the same day but there was a regression...
Now the case is finally current, but my status still says "the interview has been schedule for June..."
Anyone else is having similar experience. I thought once the case is current we will get an update.

Let's use this forum to share our experience.
Thank you!

Hello All ,
I just have a question .

If we have attended the i485 interview and the IO cannot make the decision and gives us an RFE .
can we travel internationally using advance parole to get them their requested document ?

Or will the advance parole be denied after the RFE ?

Thanks,

Hello Everyone,

My interview is scheduled for Feb 12 and I’m freaking out because my husbands job contract is going to expire 3 days before the interview, we weren't expecting it since my PD is Nov 23 (less than 3 months for the interview) and I don’t know what to do since he is sponsoring me and I can’t work because I didn’t get my work permit and he will not have a job by there, please if you have any tip that I could do it would help me a lot. I’m also very worried about when I applied for my visa I mentioned I didn’t know anyone in America and I was going to California but I changed my plans and came to Boston and meanwhile I figured out I do have a cousin here (who I didn’t talk since he moved in 2001) which I became friend and lived with until I got married, do you think it could be a problem? I didn’t lie when I applied for a visa I just didn’t know I was coming and I didn’t know I had someone here. Please help me!!!!!!

Hello everyone,

I’m new to this formum and I can see some helpful information.

I’m a Norfolk, VA filler and I have my interview in February at USCIS for AOS family based.

In the interview notice they asked me to bring an affidavit of support for the most recent tax year unless already submitted. When I filled my case last year (in 2018),
I submitted a 864 form for 2016 and 2017 tax year will all documentation. Since
A new tax year has passed, do I need to fill again a new affidavit for 2018 year ?

My sponsor is on travel abroad and I’m not sure if it will be possible for him to file for his 2018 tax quickly before interview date and get all employment letter needed.

Can I come at USCIS without that new affidavit of support ? Or Can I change my sponsor ?

Thank you

Gm fliers. I'm schedule for a emergency AP is a prove of letter from the doctor good enough instead of the original death certificate because I won't be able to get the original before the interview?

I filed (I-485, I-130 and I-765) concurrently. USCIS received my application on August 8, 2018. Had y biometrics on the first week of September. USCIS asked for additional documents just a few days before the biometrics thru mail which I sent them in less than a week after the biometrics. I sent another batch of documents on the first week of October, 2018. I haven't received EAD yet, but my interview is scheduled for the next month. I did fall out of F1 status and worried that it could the reason of not getting the EAD yet. What are my chances in the interview? Anyone in my shoes? Our marriage is bona fide and we are not worried about that part. But I really need to get approved for us to have a smoother life together! I'm currently studying full time.

Hi

I had my I-485 interview on Jan 09, 2019 , I was not approved on the spot, even I was not given any paper stating my case is under review.
On Jan 12 , 2019 I received a notice asking for more information. I sent the required info on Jan 18, 2019 .The required documents were delivered on Jan 22, 2019. Today updated on website for received of docs.
Since my interview was very nice and IO was very much convinced ,I was thinking by end of the day my case will be approved. Unfortunately no update .
Waiting to see how much time they take. But I am confident and very hopeful.

Hello everyone! Hope all is well with you. I just wanted to take some time to thank you all for your insights about your experiences throughout this arduous process. I know it can be taxing at times. Hang in there and remember that every case is different.
 
Here is my timeline (Married to an U.S. Citizen)
Filed with the Local Office of Philadelphia

1- My PD was December 2017 (Filed I-485, I-130, I-765, and I-693 concurrently). Got receipts from USCIS three weeks after filing.
2- January 2018: I got my fingerprints
3- March 2018: my case was ready for interview
4- April 2018: got my working permit (EAD)
5- December 2018: I got my interview notice
6- January 2019: I had my interview at the Philadelphia office. The case was approved a week after the interview. I got my green card in the mail three days after receiving the approval notices for I-485 and I-130 in the mail.

In total, my process took approximately 13 months. Mind you that some people have gotten their green card in 6 months, hence every case is different.

The interview was laid-back. The waiting room was crowded, and we got there 30 minutes prior to our interview time; however, we ended up waiting approximately 2 more hours before being called in for our interview. The officer was nice and straightforward. Due to the large amount of people waiting, we could tell she wanted to make our interview go as fast as possible. We were in the interview for about 45 minutes. We got sworn in and then she began asking us basic questions such as where we met, how we met, etc. She was making jokes while asking the questions. You have nothing to fear, as long as your marriage is legitimate, and you are overly prepared. We were commended on our organization. We brought 2 1 ½” binders filled with documents and a photo album with almost 400 pictures. It made it easy for us to locate what she was asking for. Also, be sure to make copies of your original documents. The officer asked my wife questions from the I-130 and then she asked me questions from the I-485 and all the yes and no questions as well. At the end of the interview, she told us that we would hear from them within 4 to 8 weeks. The case was never updated online until I received the approval notices in the mail. People here say that they get approved on the spot, but we never got a verbal confirmation. All in all, we felt that our interview went really well. Once again, if your marriage is bona fide, you have nothing to worry about. Just because you don’t hear from immigration right away, doesn’t mean your case didn’t get approved. I never felt out of status and yet my case took 13 months.

Thank you all so much for being my support this last year. It has been stressful at times, but seeing your experiences really motivated me. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. God speed!

how long you have to wait after a divorce to get married again require in Florida ?
 
I went through my interview, every was going well and smooth at the end
The officer said that because you was waiting for only 4 months to get remarried
 He has to talk with his supervisor to make a decision.
Or they may call us for a second interview.
