I-485 experience San Antonio office
Here is our experience. Sponsored my wife for Green Card since I am a citizen.
1. Applied August 29th for EAD (as backup in case of delays), I-130 and Green card
2. Fingerprinting notice Sep 15th ballpark.
3. Oct 5th Fingerprinting done.
4. Nov 10th EAD approved and sent to us.
5. 4-21 Interview arrived in the mail. No change in status online for some reason.
6. 5-8- Interview in San Antonio office. The officer was great. Asked how we met. where we live etc since marriage. Went on for about 30 minutes where she was chatting about her own personal life! our interview was actually only about 5-10 minutes. lol. Said she would approve there is nothing wrong going on her. we should get the card in the next 2 weeks or so.
6. 5-15- We got approved I-130 approval in the mail. So we thought that green card should be arriving soon. no change again online.
7. nothing happened till 5-25. phone customer service was worthless as usual.
8. 5-26 I approached my congressman John Carter for help. they got responses back right away. we were informed that my wife was in green card status and the card has been sent for production and we should get it by 6-9. worst case by 6-30.
9. 6-9- talked to John Carter staff and they went back and asked USCIS and they responded back 6-30. i was provided copies of the email (with the email address hidden of the USCIS staff, though with USCIS.org unhidden so we knew there isn’t anything fishy).
10. 6-30- I speak to John Carter staff again asking for help. They called up USCIS and it all of a sudden it emerged that there was a system glitch and our case had gotten stuck and was being pushed to production. They started working on the IT issue. The interviewing officer had to do something on her end to push this through to card production.
11. 7-5- I booked an infopass appointment with me and my wife to go to San Antonio office. I also was in touched with the congressman office who were pushing USCIS for getting the IT issue resolved. While I was sitting at the office waiting for the appointment, the issue was resolved 10 minute before my appointment and the interviewing officer was able to push this case through to card production and the magical email below appeared in my mailbox. 3 cheers to John Carter’s office!
On July 5, 2017, we ordered your new card for Receipt Number YYYY YYYY and will mail it……
Thanks to everyone on this forum has helped me stay sane as we have gone through this nervous process. Best of luck to everyone!
