Congrats 🎉 When did you receive your work permit?

CONGRATS 🥳 thank you for sharing. my husband and I have a 6 months old AND was wondering if I get an interview ( hopefully soon 😫😫) if we should bring him with. also did you bring all copies of of everything you submitted? just curious.

@jack james. my ead didnt get approve

Congrat. everything should be fine when you mail the updated Medical Form, is the IO give you any letter after you completed the interview?

@eye mini. I have to bring because we dont have other family member here and he is too young to hire a nanny and it was actually better because the officer sees him he was like that’s enough proof and i wont be asking too much questions I know you are very busy 😂😂😂 so thats why he didnt ask any question. I print out everything and bring to the interview just in case because these days i’ve been hearing alot about they lost the file and they couldnt approve the case on spot because they have no file on their hand. So just to avoid that i brought everything lol.

@Bob mk. No, but 2 daysater I got the RFE. today i just went to get the missing vaccine and will sent the package back to them tomorrow :).

@nana Howe thank you for the feedback …😊 I wasn’t planning on leaving him but I wasn’t sure if I am allowed to have someone else beside my husband. I can barely breathe when my son is not with me 😂 and oh my I submitted like 213 pages of everything including our photos 😂 but well I guess I gotta get some ink and print everything out then. thank you for answering also why did they ask if you wanted to change your name then? and did you end up changing your last name?

Congratulations Nana …. you have written your experiences so very beautifully!! Thanks. Very nice of you to take out time and write such a descriptive message for all of us , who are waiting endlessly. best wishes to you!!

@eye mini. I only print out I485 form and the affidavit of support that we submitted and copies of our baby birth cert.+my passport+I94+my birth cert.+my husband passport+his divorce decree. he didnt ask for anythingelse :)

@R R Thank you

we are in the same boat. Let me know if you have an update on your case after sent the RFE. I had the interview on November 4th it was approved, but from Oct 1st immigration are asking for the new version of medical exam that includes the covid vacine record and i didn't know 😣. so on November 8th i sent the new version of medical exam, on nov 17th my status changed to we received your correspondence and we are reviewing it. Until now i don't have any update 😖

@pilar sure. will come back and update if there’s any changes.

@pilar, so you had to pay to get another medical?

@Rennay V, yes I had to pay again for a new one

@Nana Howe, thanks 🤗

@pilar, that’s ridiculous because the medical is not cheap! I guess I have to start saving up for another one then

@Rennay V, yes, just make sure you have the new version of the medical exam and also it's not expired by the day of your appointment

why can’t the doctor just fill in the COVID vaccine on immunization card instead of having to pay all over again? I think I’ll have to try doing that

congratulations 🥳 My only question is that visit visa is only allows stay for 6 months how were you able to extend it ?

congratulations you explain your case very well and give all details which is very helpful for us to encourage Tnx a lot 🙏

congratulations 🎉🎉🎉🎉

@Rennay V. since they already have my file from last time. I only pay for the vaccines I have to get + Dr. visit fees. and they just printed the old form out and updated the vaccine page :)

@Zain Momin The process for applying for a green card from within the United States is called Adjustment of Status (AOS). When you use AOS, you’ll be able to stay in the United States while your application is processed, even if your visa expires before your green card is approved. credit : boundless.com

@Nana, ok cool! thanks...If I have to do another I'll do that

@Nana Howe ok thank you so much

@SS S this is what I found on boundless.com The process for applying for a green card from within the United States is called Adjustment of Status (AOS). When you use AOS, you’ll be able to stay in the United States while your application is processed, even if your visa expires before your green card is approved. … :)

@Zain Momin. your welcome. good luck to you

@Sawsha Holloway. thank youu 😍😍

Could you please tell me did you receieve conformation email regarding changing your adress once you filed AR11 ? Thank you

@Maya M. yes I got in my email right after I submit it

I received the email that they dont reconginize my new adress . Had a chat with a life agent who told me that he can see my new adress and placed the request for the tier officer to give me a call within 1 month but I still didnt receive a call and almost passed 3 weeks so wondering should I fill out another AR11 or ? Thank you

@Maya M. hmm I would try to contact live agent again and see if it is updated on their end. if yes then I wouldnt be worry about it. i got the confirmation email when I first move from Alaska to Miami. but when I change from Miami to Ft.Lauderdale. i didnt get the confirmation right away but 3 days later I try to talk to live agent via emma it is already updated to the most recent address :) and then I got the interview notice at my new address so thats how i know its updated

Thank you for the advice will contact life agent

Hello when you moved from Alaska to Florida did you receive a letter with details about the address change or just an email?

@Mike D. since my case starts with IOE so most of the thing are via electronic. so I got the confirmation email as soon as I submit the address change.

@Nana I confirmed my address twice with a live agent since you told me especially I needed to know because i had a scheduled interview for january 27 and same field office as yours Oakland park , Ft. Lauderdale

@Maya M. how did it go? did she say its at the Oakland park? did you ever get the interview notice mail?

congratulations 🎉. During your interview did the officer ask you any question about your over stayed with your tourist visa in the USA ? have you planed to get married in the USA ? thank you .

@cristy he only asked if i have ever leave usa after entering with tourist visa and processing AOS. and no he didnt ask the plan to get married i dont know if its help but we brought our baby with us to the interview

thank you very much .

sorry for bothering you. I have another a question . I got my biometric on the last of Dec 2021 , after 2 days my statut has changed to” case is being reviewed by Uscis”, but I have not got fingers prints were taken . I am confused😞 some of people said it's ok bcz my case is reviewing, others said i need to get updated about fingers prints should be ( fingers printswere taken). what do you think plz ? thx .

@cristy. i never got the “finger prints were taken” too :) it say it was reviewing and then change to next :)

sounds great . thank you 🥰.

@Nana Howe my case almost similar to yours . I used to work as cabin crew in Saudi Arabia. I lived in Jeddah for 2 or 3 month working as flight ✈️ attendant and came back to my country again, stayed for one month or more . From 2017 until mars 2020 I had many entries and exits between my country and Saudia Arabia . my question is : Do uscis need my criminal record from Saudi Arabia too 🇸🇦 or just from my mother country . I want to fill and they asked for my last 5 years (work experiences). did you get your criminal record too from Gcc country.

@cristy. if you adjust status from inside usa. they didnt ask for anything.

yes it's from the USA. I appreciate your help . 💕
