AOS current wait time
Hi Everyone,
I'm finally sending out my paperwork this Friday for AOS through my US citizen wife. I used AP in 2017 so and also have protection under 245i but going through AP for lower fees. Anyone know the current timeline waits? I am hoping its not more than a year. |
Re: AOS current wait time
I'm also doing AOS through my USC spouse, sent my stuff late February and am currently waiting on the interview to get scheduled. I think wait times depend on where you live and the volume of applicants from that area.
However, these COVID times have complicated things. USCIS is dealing with serious financial troubles and was on the brink of furloughing more than half its workers. In order to avert furloughs for now, they are apparently cutting costs everywhere they can, meaning that there will be longer processing times for everything. So safe to say if you already live in a place with long wait times, it will be a miracle if you are able to get your green card within a year of applying. I live in the Bay Area in California, so I'm already resigned to the fact that I probably won't get an interview/green card until next year. |

Generally 12-18 months these days. The exact number depends on your field office.

For reference, I sent my DACA renewal like the week after I sent my AOS packet and got my DACA work permit in just under 2 months. |

Even if he doesn't win, the chances of Congress transitioning us from DACA to a permanent solution (like a pathway to citizenship/permanent residence) are slim. The DREAM Act has been stuck in Congress for decades now. Don't wait and leave your fate in the hands of others. If you have the ability to fix your status, do it. I agree about a lawyer providing peace of mind. I decided to do it on my own though. Aside from the wait time for the interview, so far so good :) Hope you have a smooth application process! |
