Adjustment of Status - I-485
Fields marked as * are required.
My I-485 Experience
June 2nd 2015 Married to a US Citizen
June 16th 2015 Filed I-130
September 9th 2015 Filed I-485 I-765 I-512
September 29th 2015 Biometrics Appointment
November 5th 2015 EAD Received combined with I-512
December 16th 2016 Received Social Security card
January 13th 2016 Interview for I-485 and I-130, submitted I-693
June 6th 2016 Called USCIS to signal abormal processing time
July 29th 2016 Got Email following the call to tell me case was delayed due to overload unrelated to my case
July 30th 2016 Received I-797 saying my I-130 has been approved
August 4th 2016 spouse receives emails saying that I have to request an appointment in my country of origin's US embassy
August 9th 2016 infopass appointment. I-797 saying my I-130 has been approved has been submitted to an USCIS agent to resolve the problem
August 25th 2016 My I-485 was approved
September 1st 2016 I received my green card
So that's about 1 year and 3 months.
Just keep hanging there, remain calm no matter what, and always have all documents ready (social security card, marriage certificate, anything submitted, all I-797 received, ...).
And if you can bring your child(ren) during the interview. It will prevent them from asking very personnal sexual related questions, and give them the image of a family which is important to prove your presence on US soil is legit.
Good luck.
