I've been trying to follow this thread as close as I can, but recently haven't been able to so much.
But I saw that many of our members on here who had sent it around my time, have already been through the interview process or have gotten an interview letter already.

I'm trying to figure out first of all is this a normal timeline ?
Second, is there a service request I can send after a certain amount of time?
And lastly, do the approvals usually come in a certain time after the sent date or does it have to do more with the date of EAD approval? Please help in anyway that you can, thanks.

My lawyer didn't ask me to provide any pictures or joint accounts and any of my financial docs for the application. And he said to do the medical exam before the interview, but do not do it just yet, I will receive something from USCIS about not submitting it, but it's ok.
Did anyone experience the same thing?
thanks, guys!

It's true that you don't necessarily have to submit all the evidence when submitting your application, but in the current climate, I don't know why you wouldn't. Especially if there's a chance it speeds up a process that already takes too long. It's called front-loading the application. Did they at least go over the evidence you need to gather for the interview?

At the very least, you do have to submit all the information required for the i864 and evidence of financial support (taxes, w-2s, etc). Did they go into that?

The medical can be done/submitted before the interview. I submitted one with the application, and had to do another one before the interview (1 year and 1 week). good luck!

We are getting a house, so we will have all the joint documents by the interview, and I guess the pictures. And That’s the thing he said, the medical exam will expire after a year, so do it in a later date. But what I read here all have the medical sent in. I’m just wondering if anyone had done the same but went through.
Thanks for your answers tho!
