Case Approved
Marriage based GC approved
Glory to God! Got my marriage based GC approved on the spot. The lady was very kind and pleasant. Once I realized her generous nature, it helped me ease my tension off a bit and answer with smiles and some laughter.
I was nervous like hell (never been so nervous for any occasion in my ENTIRE LIFE, and understandably so).. for this life changing day.
Interview went pretty easy- questions asked- how did you guys meet, where was your first date, what attracted you both to each other, asked both of how we interact/ get along with each others' families, do we have a fur baby, how did I spend the last one year at home without a job (since I didn't get the EAD at all, and was out of my previous H1B Visa), what work do I plan to do/ continue once I get the GC.
We had a lot of bonafide documents after we got married. She didn't look at any during the interview. She said she will review a little bit after we leave and approve two years GC (since we've been married for less than two years). She also explained the process to file for I-751 and then citizenship. That is when I realized/felt like I am getting approved on the spot.
By the time we were leaving, she was cracking jokes and so were we. It almost felt surreal (especially after all crazy thoughts, since I didn't get the EAD at all).
Also, when our lawyer said that I am unemployed, since I didn't get the EAD, she seemed surprised and said:"NBC is backed up a lot". That gave me some reassurance that I-485 and I-765 processing may be slightly unrelated and independent of each other (if not completely). I know that people are freaking out due to delays in I-765 (I had gone 100% bonkers crazy).. worrying if that means something is wrong in the application. But it seems otherwise. (Hoping that this feedback helps some people appease their worry).
Please feel free to ask any questions. I will be happy to share all I can.
May God bless us all, after the patience and worries that we go through for this process.

Typo with my first name on my EAD
I received my EAD and I noticed a typo with my first name. I verified my form I-765 for any error and all was correct; so the typo was made by USCIS. I just filed and submitted an e-request explaining the error. Is there anything else I should do from my end? and how long does it take for the request to be processed? Please share if you encountered a similar experience. Thank you.
(card is being produced) EAD approved — March filler
Receipt Date is March 4 2021. I got approval update on 10/12/2021
I expedited twice, no response received.
It seems NBC is now processing early March 2021 because I have seen other early March fillers got approved without expediting.
If you filed EAD earlier than March 2021 and your service centre is NBC and you have not been approved. I suggest you try to expedite so that the officer processing your case will be alerted. Because it seems some officers sleep on some people’s cases. I wish you all the best.
I-130 Interview scheduled
My husband applied for i130 for me and I included my daughter who is 7 as a derivative applicant.
My interview notice doesn't say anything about bringing her to the interview but should she an still go with my husband and I to the interview?
Does any one know if her green will be given automatically once mine is given???
HELP!!!
OPT EAD approved
My initial OPT application was rejected by USCIS as they believed that the application was incomplete. USCIS returned the incomplete package through USPS without informing me that my application has been rejected, and USPS lost the package in-transit. Since I didn't receive the receipt notice, I kept reaching out to USCIS for an update, but USCIS only answered to my calls 8 weeks after my application was rejected. In the mean time I had no idea that application was returned as USPS misplaced the package in-transit. I lost almost 8-10 weeks in this, luckily my second application was approved in 37 days.
