Question on EAD/AP combo renewal
EB1C (India) PD 30 May 2017. Concurrently files in NBC

Still waiting for updates on I-140 and I-485. Does anyone with similar PD see any movement?

Given the long wait time, i will have to renew my EAD/AP combo card. My current combo card is valid till end of Nov 2018. My question is if i travel abroad after submitting my renewal application but within the validity period of my existing combo card, will my renewal application be cancelled?

Interview complete and no updates
I had my interview on 5/1/2018. It almost took 1.5 hours but the actual interview was just 30 mins. Attended with Attorney. Counsel's forms were taken. Basic questions from i-485 after taking Oath followed by Yes / No questions. IO mentioned that she don't have the receipt number for i-485J. She should be able to pull the receipt in next couple of days and should be able to further review the case. IO also mentioned she thinks she has all the documents. If she needs additional documents she will inform. Asked if I have anything to submit, I submitted the latest Employment Verification letter. After completing the interview I realized that IO did not ask me sign the i-485 application as a proof that I attended the interview. So far no updates on the case. Status still showing Interview Scheduled. Curious if anyone has similar experience.

EB1C; PD - 200502xx (ported from previous I-140); Interview location: DFW Area (Irving, TX)

Eb2 interview for minor child
Hi ! I was wondering if there will be an interview for my 9 year old child. I am the main applicant and she is my dependent. Does anyone have a recent experience of the new employment based AOS interview that you have a minor child adjusting status with you? Was the interview waived or did you receive an interview notice for her/him, too?

I-140 &485 filed May 2017
Fingerprint August 2017
I-140 RFE Jan 2018
I-140 approved April 2018
No news about interview

EB1 I485 approval timeline questions
I140 approval: September 2017
I485 filed: October 2017
Fingerprint: Jan 2018
EAD/AP received: Jan 2018

No update since then. I wanted to ask you guys if there was any change of having AOS interview scheduled before the retrogression ends on October 1st. I see some people who filed I485 last year have gotten AOS interviews for May 2018 as well.

I really need to go to India this year and wanted to confirm if it was safe to do so on EAD/AP combo card. Thank you all for your time.

Employment based interview experience-Denver field office
Here's our interview experience. The whole process took around a hour but the actual interview was just for 20 mins. We were given the oath to begin with and asked to sign the attorney waiver form since we didn't take an attorney.
The IO went through the details in the I-485 basically checking all the information inside it and going through a selected number of 'yes/no' questions. My wife was also asked to confirm the details in her I-485 document. No questions regarding job responsibility. We were then asked to sign the section of the I-485 to indicate that we appeared for the interview. The IO asked for the employment verification letter,latest paystubs, W-2's & tax documents and asked if we had any additional documents to submit. We ourselves gave our joint bank statements as well as our marriage certificate. The IO mentioned that rest of the documents look good and that our attorney will get a mail if there are additional documents needed. Overall our interview went great.

Employment based 485 - Interview was great but no Visa to approve
PC date Sept 2016
485 filing date: 30th May 2017
Received EAD in 60 days of filings 485

Got RFE for 485j in December 2017

Interview 5/3/2018

Interview was great (San Antonio TX, officer was very nice and it was very brief validating 485 info. Seems like she just did a formality and she called her colleague that I don't have a visa to approve - since it is India EB1C.

After the interview she was like I am going to prepare everything and please expect an RFE for Medical as it is getting expired in coming month. She added that she was going to send this to NBC who will finally approve it - she could not approve it as there are no visa for India right now (which means date is not current for EB1C). 2 hours of interview the status online changed to:

Interview Was Completed And My Case Must Be Reviewed

Lawyer confirmed that EB1C will become current in October 2018 and we should wait and renew EAD/AP for everyone.

Has this happened to anyone else? Also, if the date is not current whats the point of interview? Just a formality?

Hi Guys,

From your experience how much time does it take for USCIS to send you a decision once they receive RFE for medical exam and supplement J? I know that there is no general rule but it would be helpful to have a general idea, thanks!

No Biometrics but case transferred to NBC
Hello,
Can someone who did not had biometrics appointment notice for long time but had the case transferred to NBC, share their experience
Did you get biometrics appointment notice from NBC? How long it took

I have got ead/ap, case transferred 3 weeks back, not sure how biometrics would be done. Without biometrics I don’t think case will move further (for interview)
