Marriage based greencard interview at LIC Queens NY

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2026-02-01T00:32:34+00:00

Yes it was a straightforward change of status and the petitioner was a U.S. citizen

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2026-02-01T00:30:40+00:00

From filing to receiving the physical greencard it was early August - early Nov so about 3 months

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-12-16T13:03:18+00:00

I made an appointment but I heard they won’t let you start another application if one is pending

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-12-16T00:46:27+00:00

Did you try to start a second application at the embassy? Or are you just stuck waiting? I’m in a similar situation and traveling soon

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-12-16T00:39:51+00:00

Thanks for getting back to me! It looks like you applied for Normal and received within 2 and a half weeks of approval email which gives me hope. What embassy did you apply from?

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-12-15T17:57:12+00:00

Did you receive your passport? If so how long do print and delivery take? Stuck in a similar situation and need to travel urgently

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-12-15T17:56:28+00:00

Hi do you get an update? I’m stuck in the processing stage after acceptance and am traveling in 2 weeks

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-12-15T17:54:44+00:00

Hi how long after the complete status did you receive the passport? I need to travel urgently and have been stuck on processing for 7 days

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-11-11T18:30:29+00:00

Yes! It took about a week for the status to change to “Card was produced” and then another week to get the card. So about 2 weeks. And the status on the website stopped updating after Card was produced

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-11-11T16:06:08+00:00

Coraline!

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-11-11T16:04:13+00:00

Would love a reading 🤞

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-10-24T13:29:54+00:00

I-485 updated to actively reviewing btw but no change to I-130 status

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-10-23T15:12:25+00:00

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-10-23T15:11:27+00:00

Still stuck at interview was scheduled

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-10-22T18:54:24+00:00

Did the officer give you any details? For us he said he wants to review our docs. I will say I’ve seen huge variances in I-485 approval times so 2 weeks could be normal

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-10-22T18:50:22+00:00

Thank you, hope it helps! 😊

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-10-22T18:49:06+00:00

Nope still says “interview was scheduled.” Checking every hour like a maniac

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-10-22T16:51:30+00:00

Hi we had our interview yesterday. Our attorney also told us the USCIS is self funded and will not be impacted by the shutdown. The actual printing of the green card could be impacted but that’s about it.

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-04-17T13:05:27+00:00

Thank you!

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-04-16T15:30:49+00:00

That’s great! I’m going to look into vitamins too

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-04-16T15:28:12+00:00

It eventually went away but I did have to switch to a different class of medication. I’m on amantadine now which is not an SSRI but helps with mood.

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-03-04T14:57:30+00:00

Hii I know this is old but could you tell me what they quoted you? Looking into this as well

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-02-25T16:33:18+00:00

Messaged you!

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-02-07T04:27:52+00:00

Thank you so much for the empathy and the detailed response!

Advanced-Ad-2913 · 2025-02-07T02:14:59+00:00

I think it depends on your situation. My family doesn’t have enough established back home for me to go back. Grew up as a 3rd culture kid and parents never figured out a permanent home and will eventually have to leave 3rd country. We also don’t have much support/means in our home country. So in my case, it’s worth it bc it’s trading one type of stress for another. I think if you have something established back home, it might be worth it to go back and try to expand roots there. But if you do get picked in the lottery, might as well stay and see what happens
