LIN filer here, 11/30 received date! ROC approved and new card being produced today!!! 

Congrats! Hope that we hear something soon. Interesting how despite applying only a week or so after you, our NOA1 wasn't dated until 1/9/2021.

Just wanted to update this thread as well. Wrote the same thing in my own thread about rescheduling already:

 

An update for anyone in a similar predicament as me: Reached USCIS contact center after 40~ minute wait. The lady proceeded to inform me that the procedure for 14 day callback period has been extended to 20 days (!) as of last week. She claimed that there will be no repercussions for missing my ASC/biometrics appointment as I am already in a line to receive a callback, yet, I couldn't get a written confirmation that this is the case. I don't exactly trust the ever changing information given by a call center agent (had a seasonal job at a call center myself...). Ugh. Watch them change something again and making those 20 days into 28 days or something. Wish they would have informed me by e-mail that the callbacks will take longer...

Did u hear back from USCIS? Any update?

Thats so strange! We didn't receive the NOA1 until Jan 2021, but it was dated 11/30 for some reason. It was a weird time at USCIS then LOL

@Wiz_Fit it looks like your case is outside processing times. The current receipt date for a case inquiry is 01/02/2021. I would go ahead and submit a case inquiry. Hopefully, that will prompt them to approve you. 

Thanks! I just submitted it now.. it seems crazy people are moving to approved status and we haven't even gotten our biometrics letter yet.

Same thing in here. No news after the fingerprints and we are in SRC also. Our e request date is July 16 so waiting for that before we call. Please let us know if you notice any change the next few days and we will do also.

Did u hear back from USCIS? Any update?

They called me literally on day 20…while we were flying back to the US 🙄 You can guess how my heart dropped when I saw there was a missed call from USCIS… I was just about to go see a DHS officer at our Point of Entry when my phone rang again (since they make two calls). I for sure was a nervous wreck that whole day.

 

The officer on the phone promised to put me back in biometrics queue, meaning appointment within 3-5 weeks (been a week now), but I have not received any new letter home. So backward this whole calling system…

Getting there, slowly but surely...  (I hope )

 

Together (well...mostly the Transatlanticism kind of together) Since 12/2013

 

CR-1:

 

Married in Sweden 8/2017
(Well Frontloaded) I-130 Sent 12/2017
CR-1 Approved 10/2018
POE LAX 01/11/2019

 

I-751:

 

I-751 Package Sent with UPS 11/11/2020
I-751 Received by the AZ Lockbox 11/13/2020
I-751 Check Cashed 12/31/2020
I-797 (with My Last Name Misspelled...) Received by Mail 1/2/2021

Biometrics Appointment Received by Mail...too bad I am in Europe right when it's supposed to take place 🤯 6/14/2021

Rescheduled Biometrics Appointment, the biometric technician can't change the misspelled name on file, but he enters the correct spelling of my last name as an alias 8/2/2021

Interview Ready to Be Scheduled 10/13/2021

(Two Days Later) Interview Was Scheduled 😱 10/15/2021

I-751 Interview, Petition Approved 🥳 11/19/2021

Case Status Changed to New Card Is Being Produced 11/19/2021

Case Status Changed to Case Was Approved 11/22/2021

Green Card Arrived in the Mail (Name Correctly Spelling, w00t) 11/27/2021

 

When USCIS Misspells Your Name:

 

Typographical error form filled on USCIS website 1/4/2021
Contacted USCIS if there has been any progress since THEIR error (Received a Tier 1 tracking number) 2/6/2021
Contacted USCIS again as the issue remains to be resolved (Received ANOTHER Tier 1 tracking number) 3/12/2021
Apparently USCIS chat is worthless; CALLED USCIS, Tier 1 agent promised that a Tier 2 agent would call me 4/28/2021
Received a call from a nice Tier 2 officer who said I may or may not get a correct extension letter, but just in case I would be scheduled an InfoPASS appointment 5/4/2021
Went to local USCIS service center and had to deal with a nasty and entitled customer service agent who refused to give me an I-551 stamp. National Benefits Center is supposed to mail me another I-797 within 7-10 days... So I had to waste my day, taking buses for two hours one-way just to deal with this lady's attitude? 5/7/2021

After anxiously monitoring our mailbox for a few days I DID receive a corrected I-797, w00t! All documents good to go ✅ Vaccinated ✅ Ready to visit my parents in Europe for the first time in 17 months!! ✅ 5/13/2021

The lesson: Don't use the chat for anything complicated, AND keep hassling USCIS for a response...

So looks like there is some movement, hang in there.
