    Very informative information!! Just a timeline on my green card application.
    My wife and I applied for marriage based green card (for me).
    Applied in early December 2022. USCIS confirmed receipt of application mid December.
    Received EAD in January 2023.
    Never received the Advanced Parole at all. Just shows the application was received in December but no approval or denial.
    Didnt send the medical exam results with the initial application so they pushed back in June 2023 and asked me to submit them.
    Did the medical exam, got about 5 shots that were required, and Submitted SEALED medical exam results in June 26th 2023. Along with this i also got a letter from the pharmacist in Walgreens to exempt me from seasonal flu shot and said it was out of season and flu shots were not available anywhere in North America at that time.
    Never got asked to do interview process and received email of green card approval in early July 2023 and received green card in the mail 2 weeks later 😊
    Total time it took from start to finish was 7 months. I was advised it would likely be 12 - 18 months or even more but we got lucky i guess 😊
    Thank you for your informative videos, and good luck to all applying!

      @lyll9447 We sent all the mandatory documents like photocopies of marriage certificate, birth certs, passports etc. along with pictures of family events, pictures of us together when we were younger, and also pictures of us with our daughter which I believe would have helped prove our marriage was legit and probably why they skipped the interview process for us

    Thanks to Jim's firm, I received my US Citizenship and my British husband received his Green Card a year ago in January! I highly recommend Hacking Immigration for all your immigration needs. Our previous attorney was not a patch on these guys, and we're so glad we switched. Thanks to Jim and his team, we are now living the dream in Reno! 😊

    We made our initial filing back in March of 2022 and saw on the USCIS website that my wife's green card was just issued last week (still waiting for it though). It took over a year to get a work card, social security number, and travel card. Our interview was 5 months ago in the Atlanta field office. We know of people that filed more than 6 months after us with only a fraction of marital evidence that we submitted and received their green card months ago. We had a very strong case and a smooth interview, so it feels like so much depends on the officer handling your case.
    We had a great attorney in our case but we cannot imagine how lost we would have felt without the reassuring guidance and insight that Jim provides on a regular basis. Thank you for all you do, Jim!

    I currently have a green card that was "mistakingly" given to me by USCIS back when my mom and I went through the legal process of obtaining through the unmarried son and daughter of a Permanent Resident.Long story short I went for my naturalization, and found out that someone in USCIS gave a GC that was not valid to give based on some errors they encountered. USCIS allowed me to stay with my current GC thank God, and now im in the process of obtaining a new GC through my wife who I married 4 years before this whole incident. As of now my work permit has been denied and terminated and my lawyer is waiting to see what their reasoning was but im assuming is because of the benefit I already have with the GC I currently process. My case went from NBC to my field office in Tampa FL and im hoping to get my interview waived.
