February 2018 submission- i-130, i-485, i-765 - concurrent filing

[iceman81]

So, I called USCIS and they stated because the interview was just scheduled it doesn't show in their system. WEIRD. If it's scheduled, why wouldn't it be in the system. He said it could take up to 2 weeks. Have you ever heard of that?

Did you ask for a level 2 officer?

I didn't. Maybe I can call back and do that.

Yes, their system is very disjointed and very manual. They have to poke around a lot to get any information.

Omg, you are THE first person on these forums that has Montgomery as local office! :-o
I filed with my husband a month later than you
I am so glad you have an interview date already. When we were there in October due to lost RFIE, the immigration officer was really nice, but the told us that wait time for interview is 12 months to 24 months, so I'm hoping for interview before next summer and not spring 2021 :-(

We are in Shalimar, near Ft.Walton, so it was a long drive to New Orleans for biometrics.

I think I already jinxed it, everything goes even slower than I thought it would Today my 765 and 131 were approved. So hopefully in a week or two I will receive combo card, I am currently at Day 235 since filing.

Awesome!!!! Congrats! We're not too far from you guys. We used to live in Ft. Walton. lol. New Orleans was about 3 hours from us. Looks like Montgomery is about 2.5 hours away. Super stoked about the interview. Ready to get it over. I want to join the Military.
