Change of GC application from Consulate to AOS with approved EB1-1

Hello, has anyone here experienced the following situation: an EB1-1 visa was approved. Initially, the process was supposed to be done through the consulate, but then an AOS was issued, and the GC was already obtained. DHS was notified that the GC was obtained, and DHS returned the file to USCIS. The question is: after the notification and the file is returned to USCIS, what's next? #EB1-1 #EB1-A #EB1A #Greencard #Consulate #AOS

EB1C Interview Experience

Hello All, I wanted to share my experience from my EB1C I-485 interview: Country of Birth: India Case Category: EB1C Priority Date: March 2019 I-485 Receipt Date: February 24, 2025 Spouse’s Combo Card Received: June 9, 2025 Interview Letter Received: First week of July 2025 Interview Date & Time: July 31, 2025, at 8:30 AM EST We were instructed to arrive at least 30 minutes early. Upon arrival, officers checked our interview appointment letter and a valid photo ID before letting us in. We then went through a security screening process similar to what you'd experience at an airport. After clearing security, we proceeded to the reception desk. There, we submitted our interview letter and photo IDs again. The receptionist took a photo of each applicant and scanned the index fingers of both hands. Once that was done, we were issued a ticket number and directed to the waiting area. When our name was called (it was also displayed on the screen in the waiting room), we were escorted to the interview room. The officer asked for original versions of the following documents: Passports Birth Certificates Marriage Certificate Current Employment Verification Letter (to confirm ongoing employment with the petitioner) The officer began by interviewing me (the primary applicant) first, followed by my spouse. The questions were based on the I-485 application and included: Full Name, Date of Birth, Father’s and Mother’s Names Spouse’s Name and Date of Birth Do you or your spouse have any other names or DOBs used previously (e.g., before marriage)? Current residential address Size of the household Household income Address history since 2020 (in chronological order) Highest education degree Current Job Title, Company Name, and Work Location Who filed the petition All standard Yes/No questions listed on the I-485 My attorney joined via phone throughout the interview. 👉 Note: We were required to carry a properly filled and signed Form G-28, which includes the attorney’s full details, signature, and date—as well as the applicant’s signature and date. Key Notes: 1. One of my Yes/No responses differed from what was on the original I-485. The officer allowed me to correct the response and sign electronically on a tablet to confirm the update. 2. Even if there are no corrections, both applicants are still required to sign the I-485 attestation confirming that all the information is accurate and up to date. 3. The officer asked if we had any other names or DOBs used previously. For my spouse, the answer was yes, and she provided her maiden name (name prior to marriage). 4. After reviewing all documents in hand, the officer asked if I had anything additional to submit. I responded that everything had already been submitted. My attorney added, "Please let us know if anything appears missing or if you'd like us to provide anything now." The officer responded, “It looks like I have everything here—nothing to worry about.” At the end, my attorney inquired about the status. The officer stated she would review the case by the end of the day and make a decision. Since the priority date is current and visa numbers are available, she didn’t anticipate any issues and mentioned we should expect an update within a couple of days. ✅ My recommendation to all applicants: Please go through your I-485 thoroughly before your interview. Be familiar with every section, especially your address history, employment history, and Yes/No questions. I’m sharing this based on my interview experience this morning to help others in this group who will go through the process in the future. Don’t lose hope—together we can make this journey successful. Positive outcomes are possible for all of us. #Greencard #EB1C #interview

Green Card Renewal

Someone I know applied to renew their GC back in April. There has been no news or updates on the case by USCIS, no receipt number or anything. The check for the fee has been cashed but no notices. The GC is expiring soon too. What should they do?#greencardrenewal #USCIS #Greencard #gc #i90

USPS stuck returning green card to USCIS (>15 days) — anyone seen this?

My green card was mailed on July 5 to my old address in Long Beach, CA. It was forwarded the same day, and USPS has been routing it through Los Angeles → Anchorage → Kansas City KS → Kansas City MO. Still says “In Transit to Next Facility” as of July 22 — no “Returned to Sender” yet. Has anyone else had their green card get stuck like this during return? How long did it take to reach USCIS again? #usps #uscis #greencard #EB1C

✅Green Card Returned to USCIS – Address Was Updated on Time. Anyone

Hi everyone, I wanted to share my experience and check if anyone here has faced something similar: • ✅ June 25 – I submitted an AR-11 address change online • 🛠 June 25 – My USCIS case status changed to “New Card Is Being Produced” • ✅ June 26 – My I-485 was approved • 📨 July 1 – USCIS mailed the green card, but it was sent to my old address • ☎️ I spoke to a USCIS agent the same day (July 1), and they confirmed that my new address was already on file • 📦 USPS tracking never showed a delivery attempt — the card is now in return transit to USCIS • 📝 I’ve submitted a Non-Delivery of Card service request • USCIS confirmed they’ll re-send it to the correct address once it’s returned 🔄 I’m now waiting for the return to be logged and for them to re-mail the card. Has anyone here gone through this — and did USCIS re-send your card automatically once they got it back? How long did it take? Thanks in advance for any guidance — will keep this updated for others in the same boat. #greencard #usps

🚨 Heads up to anyone filing I-130 for a spouse living outside the U.S.! 🚨 If you're sponsoring your spouse through consular processing, please read this so you don't waste money and time later. Here’s what you need to know: ✅ When filing the I-130: Make sure to select "consular processing" (NOT adjustment of status) Choose the correct U.S. embassy or consulate where your spouse will go for the interview ⚠️ DO NOT fill in both the embassy section AND the U.S. address section. If you fill out both, USCIS might assume your spouse is already in the U.S. That can mess things up and route your case for adjustment of status, not consular processing 💸 If you mess this up, you’ll have to: File Form I-824 (costs $465) Wait months just to get your case sent to NVC Add big delays to your spouse’s immigration process 💡 Best tip: Only put your spouse’s foreign address Only choose the embassy/consulate in their country Double check everything before submitting! Please share this with anyone going through the process. A small mistake can cost months of waiting and hundreds of dollars! #USCIS #I130 #SpouseVisa #GreenCard #ConsularProcessing #I824 #ImmigrationTips

I-130 process timeline

Hi guys, My husband filed an I-130 petition for me on June 16, 2024. It's now been over a year with no updates, and the receipt number starts with #IOE. The case is being processed at the #VermontServiceCenter. I'm wondering if anyone else is in a similar situation or has recently received updates after a long wait? We haven't heard anything, and I'm feeling a bit lost on what to do next. Any insights into typical timelines, or recent progress stories from similar cases would be incredibly helpful! Also, if you have advice on how to inquire about the case status effectively, please share. Thanks and good luck to everyone waiting.. #India #husbandIscitizen #I130Petition #USCIS #VermontServiceCenter #GreenCard

📣 URGENT — Second RFE from USCIS 📨

Hey everyone, I really need help or insight from anyone who’s been through this. I received a second Request for Evidence (RFE) from USCIS regarding my petition. The first RFE (in February) asked for proof of: • A good faith marriage • Battery or extreme cruelty • Shared residence I sent everything I had, including a 5-page personal statement explaining why I didn’t have joint documents or shared accounts. I also provided all photos, messages, and supporting documents I could gather. But now, they’ve sent another RFE asking for the exact same three things again. 💔 I’m confused and anxious. I don’t know what more they want from me, and I’ve truly done my best. Is this normal? Has anyone been through this? Does anyone know what else I can submit to satisfy these 3 areas? Any advice, experience, or encouragement would mean a lot right now. Thank you so much. 🙏 #USCIS #ImmigrationHelp #VAWA #GreenCard #RFE #FaithOverFear #HelpNeeded #i360 #i485
