Case Approved
H4 approved
Hi all,
I have contacted Emma today and asked for the status of my H4 COS. They directly told me they see my case was approved. I told them I cannot see that when I check my status. This person was not very nice and didn't want to tell me more details. Just after that my case status changed to approved. I am not sure it was just a coincidence, or they have a bunch of cases approved just waiting to be sent to printer and I just pushed them when I asked.

i485 approval notice
I have a second i485 approval notice in the mail today. Received the first about 2 weeks ago. Still have no sign of the green card being mailed. Online status has twice changed from card production and approved 09/30 to card production and case approved 10/14, still not card mailed. Has anybody experienced this before or currently?
Two Year Green Card In Hand
Thank you all for the posts and insights for the past year, this community has helped me stay informed, calm and plan well for my case. Green card was delivered on Friday, 10/15, after our interview on Thursday, 10/7
We had our interview at the Newark, NJ field office and I-485 status changed to “New Card Is Being Produced” on the same day.
Interview went well, officer pretty much told us cases like ours were easy at the beginning and the only questions asked were what the other spouse did for work, where the other spouse graduated from, the degrees, and she was asked what we did for my last birthday. He also asked how we met. and also the Yes/No questions on the I-485.
All the best to you all in your journeys!

2 last letters of the third word in my given name on the green card is missing.
My Green Card has my given name printed as 'Mad' instead of ‘Madan'. The last 2 letters 'an' of the 3rd word in my 1st name r missing. The total length in my 1st name including spaces is 20, but its trim to 18 including spaces, in all my immigration approvals and GC. Am I fine with the GC as it is now? And, will it be a problem now r later? like at port of entry, during naturalization, etc…
Is there like a character limit on the first name?
My first name should be xxxxxxx xxxxxx Madan (20 characters including 2 spaces), but is printed as xxxxxxx xxxxxx Mad (18 characters including 2 spaces).
My last name and other details are perfect!
Green card on hand in 7 months.
hi! just wanted to make a post about something since I've read about this a lot. I'm married to a US citizen and we did NOT hire a lawyer to do our papers. we did all the papers by ourselves while working full time so the only time we had was at night after dinner. We have never gotten any RFE and there were no mistakes on the application. i was approved the same day as my interview after not even 7 full months of sending my papers. This to say that you DON'T necessarily need a lawyer. My husband and I were not experts and we still did it ourselves and it wasn't that stressing. if you don't feel safe doing it yourself, definitely hire a lawyer. if you have a complicated case, hire a lawyer. But don't believe all the people that tell you that you need a lawyer so the process will go faster etc. My friend filed exactly when I filed, with a lawyer. She doesn't even have an appointment for her interview and she's gotten 2 RFEs. when i started this process everybody told me hire a lawyer, it's too hard otherwise, or it will go slower without a lawyer, etc. We saved a lot of money, we didn't get stressed out with our papers and it didn't take that long and we were approved in less than 7 months.
good luck to whoever is still in the process!
Green Card on hand!!
finally got my green card in the mail. it's the end (for now!) until we apply for removal of conditions in 2 years).
