I thought it would be a good idea to post this.

I sent my I-751 on 22nd. It arrived next day at VSC, and the two checks I sent were cashed promptly two days later on 25nd.

VSC at least cashed checks pretty fast.

Hope they are fast in sending out NOAs too!

Does the receipt no. that I need to input in the USCIS case status alert web page is given on NOA?
I can see some handwritten numbers in the image of my cashed check.
But I think I heard people say that those numbers don't work.


---------------------------------------------
Jan 22 - Send in I-751 via express mail.
Jan 23 - Received at VSC (according to USPS).
Jan 25 - Two Checks ($205 & $70) cashed by USCIS.

Please keep me updated on your progress as we are right behind you

Good luck!

Why did you send two checks? The directions say you may submit one check for both fees.

Good luck!

I am only a couple of days ahead of you. Let's track progress and hope they move fast!

So far, I have only got one blue receipt for biometrics fee $70 although two checks are both cashed.

I sent in two checks because I sent in one $275 check before, and my package was returned with the note saying that the fee is $205. (That was the time that this kind of thing happened to many people. The new form says the fee is $275, but service centers were still regarding $205 as the correct fee.) So, I did not want to repeat what I have already done.

I would like to have another receipt saying that they got $205 for I-751 before NOA.
But nothing happened yet. It seems that those sent one check got a receipt for $275 for both I-751 and biometrics though.

I will post here again if I get another receipt.

Good luck to you all!
