They asked for passport and a generic support forms..I sent passport, DS-160 confirmation, 221-g and the pdf authorization print out. Do I need to send a copy of I-797? Link to comment

Congratulations to you too.. for everyone else in the this state, Please stay strong and be patient..You will hear good news pretty soon as well...21 working days seems to be a reasonable number to hear back... Today, the status changed to Issued and is in final processing. Hopefully tomorrow it will be ready for pickup. @Winni & @Sriveer Are there any POEs that we need to avoid or be careful about? Any specific feedback about POEs in SFO or San Jose or Seattle or Salt Lake City? Link to comment

Good luck to all others, if you got a blue slip & asked for resume (basically TAL case) it will take 15-20 working days. Try to stay calm and be patient in the stressful times. Link to comment
