I-129 submitted I-485 with IOE number

[Lin&Chou 3]

Hi all, 

would like to ask, for K1 Visa when submitted the Form I-485 to adjust status change

is it Normal to received case number start with "IOE" instead of "MSC"??

 

the status has stated " case was received and a receipt notice was sent" since June 3rd

Seeing others which submitted around time all have received update as "fingerprint fee was received" 

 

could anyone help reply above situation and advise if it is normal and OK with " IOE" case number ?

 

THank you all in advance

It’s normal.

 

”Due to recent movements within USCIS to streamline the immigration process, there has been a push to enter the electronic age with more and more forms being available online. Whereas in the past you would know which center was processing your case based off of the first three digits of your receipt number, now all electronic files have been given the moniker IOE. Even files recently submitted in the traditional paper and ink method have been uploaded to the USCIS system as E-files”

Thank you for answering, so it is normal to wait nearly a month still no NOA 1 or fingerprint taken?  it just takes a little too long cause some worries. thank you

Takes 4-8 weeks these days to receive NOA1

EAD is taking close to 8 months, so biometrics will not be for many months.
