Hi All!

 

I am joining this group because I cannot find the January 2022 AOS Filers.

Here are my stats.

 

Marriage base with USC

 

i-485 and i-765 (NBC)

 

i-485

1/24/22 Case received by USCIS

2/23/22 Biometrics

2/23/22 case is being actively reviewed by USCIS

 

i-765

1/24/22 Case received by USCIS

02/22/22 Expedite based on financial loss (received Job Offer)

2/23/22 Biometrics

02/24/22 Request to send Evidence

 

I am trying to expedite as I have received a Job offer. So far, no answer. Unfortunately, the offer is valid only till 03/21 so I might loose it.

You should be able to print out the biometrics notice through your account as well.

Hi everyone,

 

On March 4, our case status changed to "Biometrics Appointment Was Scheduled". We logged in to our USCIS account and downloaded the Biometrics NOA that night.  Appointment is scheduled for March 28.

Just received a text message that our case was received today, 8th March!
The text message also said "official receipt notice to follow in mail".

As from other thread, our package did finally get delivered on 3rd March, although I thought it was lost in the mail.

I only added 1x G-1145 notification of acceptance on top of our files, but when I checked receipt number online, it said "your i-131 travel document was received".

But they should have everything? My travel document was placed last, behind i-485, i-864, and i-765. 🤔

Edit: Received a second text for i-765. Think they are getting to all. 🤔

Sorry may I ask, I saw you got the text message too. Is this considered a NOA1?

I have the text message that they received our AOS but will eventually receive it in the mail.

So, I now know why I got my biometrics notification before any of the NOA1s. USCIS originally mailed them in mid-Feb, but USPS returned them to NBC!

 

Not sure if this is USCIS or USPS's fault. My biometrics letter came without issue, so I assumed they would have used the same address?? 

 

USCIS included the return to sender envelope with my NOA1s that they re-mailed. I included a picture of the original envelope (return to sender) and the bottom portion of the NOA1. Any idea why they stamped "Action Completed Approved for Filing" and initialed on the NOA1? This stamp would have not been included on the NOA1 in the first mailing since, again, it was mailed in Feb and it was stamped on March 4.

 

This does not inspire confidence.....

It’s usps mistake. It happened to me one time. I mailed something and it returned to me. When I went to post office they said it’s a wrong address. I know it’s not wrong, so i told them to send it again, but I have to fight for it

Hi Sir/maam,

 

text message should be fine, Ideally you should have a notice in the mail. You can call them and ask them about your receipt number and they would be handing it over to you.

NOA1 would be the notice of action in the mail. Recieving texts means that they have your case and working on it.

I wanted to go out but I guess I should wait for NOA1 in the mail 😪
