SSN
Is there anyone who received EAD card lately, i got few questions to ask?
---was social security card/number issued/sent before or after receiving EAD card?
---if after, how long does it take for the SSN/Card to be delivered by mail?
---Or did you visit SSN office to apply in person?

Reason for asking was because the recent i765 form has a place where you request SSN to be generated and sent to you automatically. Also, i have read on here from someone who received his/her SSN/card by mail automatically.

Thank you.

OPT while AOS pending
Hello all,
I applied for Adjustment of Status through marriage to US citizen in March 2018 while on F-1 visa. I also filed for AP and EAD with that application. I am currently waiting for the interview to be scheduled (as of 5/22/18). No update on EAD status so far.

I am graduating in August 2018 and was wondering if I can apply for OPT authorization while my EAD through AoS is pending? I have heard conflicting information about whether that is allowed or not (since some believe that by applying for AoS you are giving up your current non-immigrant status and others believe that the status only goes away when AoS is approved). Does anyone have any experience with this? I am trying to make sure I am able to get a post-doc position for my career. Please help with any information you may have, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!!

Interview Done
I-485, I-765, I-130 Filed together
Application Received - 01-22-18
Biometrics- 02-22-18
Interview Notice- 04-23-18
Interview- 05-31-18

No EAD received, we had the interview yesterday. It was chilled, the officer was very friendly, he didn’t ask us too much questions, he just confirmed the details on the application, asked us how we met? When he proposed, location of proposal, then the Yes and No questions. We had a lease that had my name, my husbands name, my sister and her husbands name. I explained to them that its cheaper for us to share an apartment and most of the utilities were in their names, we had rentals insurance, life insurance, Tmobile family plan. And pictures, he asked to take some of the pictures, asked to see the wedding pictures, he said everything looks good, if he needs anything he will mail me, if not he will mail the card within 10days. My lawyer asked him for a letter, he gave us one but didn’t tick approved. He ticked the 2nd box that said USCIS cannot complete your case at this time.

Then he ticked the box that said , we didn’t require any documentation from you, we will mail you if we need anything or mail you a decision if your case is closed.’

Any one with similar experiences?? I don’t know what to expect. I’m confused. i also checked my status online, it hasn’t been updated since January 31st 2018. So I really cant expect much from them, I have never gotten update from them via email or text message or the online portal before.

Hello
Hello everyone,

I have a general question on behalf of a friend, anyone here that has had to move to another state for their job and spouse cant relocate because of their job?

How did this look when you went for your interview living in separate state/houses? I have a friend in similar situation that needs a general advice. She started up living with her spouse for a year plus and recently landed a big job offer that is just hard to turn down. The offer is in a different state. Her lawyer did tell her it may not look good living in separate houses/states prior to the interview. In her case it's been over a year no interview. I did advice her to move as man the pay is good and could make her marriage a happier one. Her spouse also advices her to move that they can make it work traveling back and forth on weekends but how would this look when they go for an interview living in different states?

What do you guys advice?

Thanks

Conditional GC Removal.
Hello everyone,

Please i have a question for someone i already gave my own side of view(a single form to be petitioned jointly) from my understanding but we both just want our views be validated by other experiences out here who has done this before.

On conditional GC removal (form i-751) with the petition being filed jointly with the spouse, are they both submitting single form signed together or each spouse have to submit each form separately???

Your swift response would be appreciated.

Thanks.

After they cancelled it.
Scheduled another interview
April 2018 got interview notice same day it supposed to be interview
But interview was morning so we had to reschedule because we got mail few hours later interview was scheduled. Hope it makes sense
In two weeks got another interview notice for April 30th
Interview went well. No decision got 120 no inquiry notice.
June 1st card being produced. Online status hasn't changed from interview scheduled the 1st one in December.
I didn't get updated for the 2nd and 3rd interview notice.
For Queens and Manhattan fillers I saw some people didn't get decision for a month after interview from these offices.

Good luck to all of you guys. I feel pain of those of you who is waiting way longer then others.
