waiting for an interview date since 2 months. US citizen sponsored parents

[ricordia]

I sponsored my parents for Permanent Residency. The USCIS website shows the following message since Tuesday May 13 but we still have not received any letter with an interview date. We have tried calling USCIS and went through info pass on June 18th as well but they said that they are working on each one of the cases and asked us to be patient. They did not give us any expected timeline on receiving interview letter and when it would be scheduled.

1) Can you please let us know with your experience the expected timeline on receiving interview letter and when it would be scheduled for Chicago office?
2) How far in time do they schedule an interview once they send us letter? TIA

Your Case Status:
Testing and Interview- (Your I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS is now ready for interview scheduling. When scheduling is complete, you will receive a notice with a time and place for your interview. If you have not received the notice within 30 days of the date the notice is mailed, please call customer service at 1-800-375-5283 for further assistance. Please check our website at www.uscis.gov for further updates on your case. If you move, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address.)
