Hey everyone,
I'm pretty sure this topic has been covered a LOT, but there are also many inconsistencies with the responses. It also seems like USCIS processing times are fluctuating a lot, and processing times change drastically from one year to another.
Here is the timeline for my family-based permanent residency application:
02/28/2018: I-130, I-485, I-765 and I-131 sent to Chicago lockbox
03/06/2018: case received by USCIS + fingerprints appointment notice sent
03/30/2018: fingerprint review completed
07/11/2018: EAD and Advance Parole Doc received by mail
07/17/2018: your case is ready to be scheduled for an interview
I know the "ready to be scheduled for an interview" is the new norm where basically USCIS doesn't give you a lot of info but has you waiting for some time... but really how long is the wait?
Can someone who has applied and lived in Los Angeles tell me how long they had to wait between the moment they received the "ready to be scheduled for an interview" update and the time they actually went to the interview. The USCIS online processing time page says it takes between 15 and 33 (!!!) months for the Los Angeles office... Am I really gonna wait 2 and a half years to get my interview? I already waited almost exactly 5months for the EAD (when it says between 3.5 and 5.5)... and now I'm scared I'm gonna have to wait all this time for the interview.
