Working without authorization (apply for AOS and then work without EAD)
Hi, I am curious if anyone has dealt with this or know someone else in this position. If you apply for an AOS and you have never worked without authorization, you do the application and answer no. A few months after you do work while waiting for your EAD and are never interviewed for the greencard so you do not have the opportunity to disclose it. Concerns: When applying to remove conditions/citizenship, the question is asked again if you have worked without authorization, the answer is then Yes. So my question 🙋♀️ is it an issue and can the person just explain what happened. Unuthorized work is forgiven for US spouses but the work was not disclosed as there was no opportunity to do so after applying. I am trying to help a person with limited access to legal representation and limited English. I did an AOS and I am just trying to help her out. She is worried about answering honestly and I said that it is worse to lie. Thank you 😊
Medical Exam
F2A PD Feb 20, 2024 California SC— still waiting for I-130 approval here. I heard about a case of (forgot PD) where they had medical done even before I-130 approval and got approved few weeks later.
Is this a legit hack or a am I risking our case for an extended waiting period for USCIS to review an unsolicited information?
Notice to Appear for Interview
Hello family,
I'm nervous and at thesame time very eager to go. I received a notice to Appear for my interview today and it's scheduled for October really less than a month from today. unexpectedly I have to prepare myself for this. I never use lawyer from the beginning and I'm sticking with the trend. Any advice would be great on this interview on what to expect and how to behave. NOV 2021 Filer here. FYI VAWA approved in January, RFE Medical was sent back and received in April. I'm here to hear what everyone thinks.
no I-130 or I-485 update Chicago field
it’s been 32 days post interview, interview went better than I thought. but no update, form I-130 says case is being actively reviewed and I-485 still has interview scheduled.
this has been stressful, considering the lady who interviewed us said we should be expecting a decision in a week or two! but it’s been 32 days!!!
Future PERM Filing with Employer B While Employed at Employer A
I am currently employed with Employer A and have an approved I-140 under the EB3 Skilled category. Can Employer B file a new EB2 PERM for me even if I am not working with them right now? Once the PERM is approved, would I need to switch to Employer B’s payroll in order to file the I-140?
It’s been exactly 41 months today!
Hi to my 2022 fillers! Any recent approvals? Praying for good news SOON! 2025 bless us with approvals please.

38 days post interview in NYC and still waiting :(
I keep seeing posts from people who got their green cards so quickly, and it’s really frustrating. I’m a Canadian citizen, I’ve never overstayed, married to a USC with a super simple case. We had our interview on Aug 15 and our I130 was approved next day. my I131 has has no movement except received on PD date, despite having my I765 approved literally the day of my biometrics back in April. I honestly feel like it was overlooked.
anyone in the same boat? a friend of mine who applied a month before me got her AP and work approval card and had her I485 approved next day post interview on the same floor I had my interview two weeks earlier.
