Case Processing
Interview
I would like to ask for help from those of you who have already gone through the interview. I’d like to ask that you share the questions you were asked, especially the ones you consider most important, and also how you answered them.
I would also like to know whether anyone here was asked how they supported themselves financially before receiving work authorization, and what their answer was.
If possible, let’s keep the comments only to those who have already had the interview. I believe this will help many people here feel more prepared.
San Bernardino Field office
hi, anyone recently got approved from this FO? or anyone else is also waiting at this FO?
While I feel happy for folks getting approved from June-October 2024, still it’s frustrating not to see any movements being a May 2024 PD and October 2025 AOS filer.
I don’t see anyone from this FO even posts anywhere. Please share any updates/Timeline if you’re also waiting/approved from this FO.

pending case . when is the time submit a writ of mandamus ?
so my case is been pending for a year now I applied 2 years ago on may 2024 my case was placed pending due to the visa unavailability but according to the visa bulletin my date is current (Feb,20,2020 ) despite the visa bulletin my case remains pending with no request for evidence or further action . I call USCIS and they just said still under processing times but other cases with PD of 2021,2022 already been approved I request the assistance from the congressman I’m waiting for their response but I’m afraid they just respond with a still on processing times should I filled a mandamus or what should I do if they just come out with that ? does anyone here have done it before ?

This wait has been frustrating. My priority date is June 2022, and I'm currently on that date, but I see almost no one with that priority date getting any updates on their process 🥺
Last year, I had to renew my work permit, and it wasn’t difficult—I was able to get it renewed quickly, with an expiration date set for 2030.

Hi everyone,
I’ve been part of this community for a long time and know many of you here. Today, it’s finally my turn to share some good news. I filed a mandamus, and just 10 days after service, I received this update—“ New card is being produced”.
Wishing the very best of luck to all of you still waiting. Your time will come soon. Keep me in your prayers. Cheers! 🥂

EB2 NIW I-140, waiting time for approval
i have been waiting for the approval since 1.9 years after filling the case on normal basis not express, altough I am living in a country where the ban is imposed but I have heared that that doesnt effect the approval, but the last message I got was "Case is still being processed by USCIS" and thats it, no anyother update or message.
I need to ask the experts and experience holders of EB2 NIW, what should I do, should I wait or file express, as currently my priority date has also been passed.
my consultant has asked me to wait, but I need to get the second opinion on this from other field experts too.
Thanks in advance.
