But the card I received does not have AP notice on it. It forced me to cancel two oversea trips. - Raised 3 SR to request a correction. The amended AP arrived in late Oct 2017 InfoPass - After case was transferred to NBC for almost 3 months without any further info I went InfoPass and the officer told me that my case was scheduled that day and it will be a month (sharp) later. Interview - The interview process went pretty well. The officer did not ask a lot of questions. - However, he did ask me to present official birth certificate from *government*. My certificate was from the hospital with gov stamp on it, which, according to him, is not a valid document for birth cert. - After checking with the process guideline (w/ attorney) and his supervisor, my birth cert is indeed a valid document. - He also did NOT take any documents from me (not even the birth cert) - Note: the officer had a very serious poker face at beginning. He became a very warm/nice man when we were almost done. Approval - case was approved a day later - card ordered the same day - paper approval notice received three days later - card received 8 days later Final words: 不知道总时程花了 28 个月正不正常。几乎每一步都有出错。连到了 interview 当天，前面排队的人都很正常，排到我的时候取票机还坏掉了。只好临时手 写一张号码牌给我们。不过还好最後的结果是好的。祝还在等待的人一切顺利早早转绿。 谢谢大家 --
