February 2019 filers

[BoomJosh]

thanks

Let us stay in touch, yours and my timeline are very similar.

Did you get any updates on EAD?

I'm an LA filer as well! Hopefully we don't have to wait too long for our interviews. It's hard to manage expectations when some people get an interview date just days after getting notified and then others wait several months.

YAY finally found someone from L.A.! Keeping you in my prayer fellow filer

Looks like my case has gone backwards?! My I-485 used to say "Ready to be scheduled for an interview" but now says "Fingerprint review completed". Great...

That's so smooth and fast. Congratulations! Still no new updates for my interview it's been 34 days since the last update of ready to be schedule for interview. and 67 days already for my EAD and AP. Good thing I successfully got a VA id card but will expire in a year. It's still in my maiden name tho coz i havent change my name on my social which im afraid to do since i got my social when im in j1 status and it's expired already. I mighht update it once I receive my EAD and DMV wont let me change it till i update my social.

is there anyone here who changed their passport in the midst of aos? my passport(Philippines) is still in my maiden name. I wanted to change it to my married name but im having second thoughts because its the valid id i submitted with my packet. will it affect if i will get a new passport?

[chrizziam07]

i dont know why my messages were not fully posted whenever i use my phone but when i use my desktop everything is posted.

I think it depends if Philippines allow the change or not.

I have experience with Mexico, after our marriage, my spouse changed the last name combination as what was used at the time, change the second last name and add "DE" between last names. 20 years later they changed policy (Mexico authorities) and now you need to have your passport (and other official documents) with your maiden name. The passport has a new area where they list the spouse last name.

We will try to get our GC with names that follow US tradition, only 1 last name and the spouse last name. In the mean time, all documents stay the same to not confuse the officer.

Congrats. Were you able to use your EAD? I don't understand why they send it if there is a big chance that will not be used at all.
