Hello Sajha friends, I received my employment based I-485 interview for end of Feb. Has anyone recently gone through the interview process. Would be a great help if you can share your experiences here. Thanks.

@aspal, How long did it take for them to schedule the interview after the status changed to "We will schedule your interview and send you a notice"? Mine has almost been about 3 months since the status changed and still waiting for the interview.

Can you also mention which field office?

@Asphal, I gave my 485 interview last year.  Interview was very smooth, it was more like verification from 485 form like do you still live in this address, are you still employed by this employer and all yes/no questions.  She asked some proof that I'm still employed (I gave few pay stub as proof)  and that was it.  At the end she said she will approve my case and I'm Permanent Resident of US as of now.  Hope this helps.
