Hello ,

just wanna gather all applicants from California to share information and feedback to help each other.

my case timeline:

03/14/2021: mailed I751 application to Phoenix 

03/16/2021: FedEx delivered mail

still waiting for NOA, not cash my check at all.

so it’s normal to take such a long time in California? I am so worried about the extension letter each single day, even doubt I filled the form or check incorrect.  Urgently need the NOA to travel abroad

CA filer here. Sent my package out on 2/11/21 by USPS, delivered on 2/12 to the Arizona PO Box, USCIS received my case on 2/16, didn't hear anything  until 4/5 I received my NOA in mail, my NOA date marked as 3/31 on the paperwork. I didn't even know when did they process my fees lol. I was told by my attorney to be patient since California Service Center is blah, swamped. She originally told me that it might take 60-90 days to get the NOA in mail, if it doesn't arrive after 90 days, then it's an abnormal situation which needs to look into. So when I got it on 4/5, I was overly thrilled lol, cuz I was not even expecting it al all.

 

I know it sucks, but sigh, all we can say to ourselves is, hang in there!

Gosh my package returned because stupid me wrote the wrong date on the check. Should be March 16, I wrote May 16 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️. The whole package returned with my check and they date stamped every single page of the i751 and all documents. Can I resend the same package with the new check or I have to complete new i751 with new documents and check?
