Is your A-number blank for all receipts, including I-485?
OPT A-numbers are non-immigrant A-numbers based on what I've read on other forums. I have a prior immigrant A-number and the same shows up on my I-485, I-131, and I-765 NOA1s. My receipt numbers are also IOE*.

Yes, it is blank on all receipts (I-485, I-131, I-765). I guess I'll just wait and see if one gets assigned in the biometrics appointment whenever it happens. Since my prior A-number is non-immigrant, it was not printed and maybe the new one is taking longer.

Mine was blank too on the receipt notices, but I was assigned one by the time I got my online access code in the mail another 3 ish weeks later 🙂

Hi guys!! after such a nightmare with all paper work, I'll be sending our package tomorrow but I noticed the I-864 form will expire in 4 days from today, I'm sure it won't make it before this date to get to USCIS, should I wait until a new form version is published or am I safe to send it?

Same question here!

 

I got my bio done on 22nd Sept and status changed to "Case is being actively reviewed by USCIS" for EAD and I-485. I spoke to some people who have the same field office and they told me that EAD took 8 months from date of filing and GC interview 11-12 months from date of filing. Now I'm thinking that a major part of these 8/12 months was just waiting to be done with the biometric. So maybe we move a bit fast now? 

 

I'm at Newark NJ. Adjusting from K1. 

That’s what I was thinking too! I sure hope we keep moving as fast as we have. I noticed the same with my field office (Sacramento, Ca) yet our biometrics appointment only took a month from time of filing.

Honestly, I would just send it. If you look at the USCIS website it says that you can continue using that form despite the expiration date. That’s the latest version, who knows when they’ll publish a new one.

Hello, 
This is Faraz.
Our case was received on August 16, 2021 (F 2A family based).
I made an address change request through my USCIS account on 09/08/2021 ,and on the same day I received an email from USCIS that I should expect a reply by 09/22/2021 regarding the address change.

But I haven't received any reply from them yet.
Is this normal ? did anybody else face such scenario?
Thanks

Hi, 

Same situation. We submitted our change of address on 9/17 and haven’t received any update or communication. Our expected response date is October 1st. Have you tried calling? 

[FaAh 1]

I did try calling them, but it always goes to the automated voice . And they do not connect me to a customer service representative , no mater what I say. Its been frustrating

I completely understand! I know it’s frustrating. I’m going to give them a few more days being that today is the day they said I can expect a response. If not I’ll start calling.
