Hey! My window starts on February 10th, make sure you don't file between the 2nd and the third, the uscis payment system is in Hawaii, so for example if you file at 1am between the 2nd and the third (witch is the 3rd) you will get a receipt for the second, my friend in New York filled at 4am and it was 11pm in Hawaii, so his application was rejected, just so you know

Thank you I appreciate it! I’m filing on paper and I’m sending my application after the third.

Why not online? On their own website they say paper takes longer, I mean, don't consider me to a ride person, I'm just wondering, maybe I'm missing something, and as long as I understood right you get a  receipt number immediately after you pay

It might be better , but I heard from a few ppl that sometimes they can’t upload the docs on the website

I did my application yesterday night (since their system save everything for 30 says) and in the end before the payment they asked me to upload my green card back and front, my divorce decree, and birth certificate/custody for my kids (I'm single dad with twins who 24/7 live with me) so all in all it was super comfortable and easy.

On the 9yh I just need to pay

Oh absolutely! I'm going to wait, I talked to representative over the phone and she told me since I am in NY State to wait 5 hours after 12, and then my receipt with show the correct date! And BTW, people that struggling to upload files on only while file don't notice that it says not file over 6mb, this is the only one problem with that

I just submitted it online an hour ago. I'm in California and the payment transaction date/time shows as if I were in the Eastern time zone so hopefully it will be ok 🤞 My window actually opened back in 2019 but took a while to take this step!

 

Good luck everyone! 😊
