Well you should be good.

Its on the I765 application for work authorization

If you didnt answer that question they may ask for an RFE

They do ask if have ever applied for work authorization before and was granted and which service center , the month and date

They do ask if you have ever applied for work authorization before ,was it granted and which service center , the month and date it was granted

My packet got delivered on 04/14 and i just recieved sms:email

@ckibs, how long it took you to get your biometrics notification after your reciept notice. I just got my email/sms this morning.

Ok guys i just recieved sms /email of reciept from USCIS

Sent to chicago lock box 04/12 rrcieved 04/14

A step closer

No way to check on case because they converted my check into an ACH transaction so i cant see my physical check online.

Thats almost 30 days, you should be hearing something soon

Lol, I feel your pain. Yea send the important and take the rest to the interview or they will ask for more info. They have to scan every doc and see if they are all signed. They do take breaks and set it aside so it really get real at the processing centers. Be patient if u signed up for email alert they will alert you.Try praying and ask God to let them speed it up.

I was reading a thread from a former processing officer. He explained that it is really stressful at the processing center. Some can pick up your documents and they are not a fast processor eapecially if it has a large amount of file , it will take them awhile to go through it. They give 30 - 45 days just for a large window. But so far as i am seeing on this site, they are working fast at the chicago lock box. Give them some time, if ur check hasnt been cashed they probably hasnt finished going through your documents. Be patient, I know its tough, we all will get through this. I check my onljne banking account everyday. It just got cashed today. Just wait and pray that the person who picked up ur docs will move faster.

Well you will soon get a NOA or look at the back of the check online and u will see the case number.

Did they at least cashed your check or money order?

Call the customer service hotline

I know how you feel , i felt the same way. But it takes 10 days before they respond. They recieved mine on the 14th

They certainly are , my checks got cashed today.

Yes once its not DHS , thats my timeframe also so we are in the same boat waiting. I am relieved.

That is great news. What is your timeline? Sent mine to the chicago lockbox and it was delivered on the 14th , check hadnt been cashed and no response.

No you have to recieve the letter. To get the dates. But the biometrics letter usually comes a week after getting the text or email from what i. Have seen on other people's timeline

You can reschedule or request a walk -in for an earlier date.

When did you send yours in. Mine was recieved on the 14th and still my check hasnt been cashed as yet.

What were some of the questions they asked?

The newer version is advisable . Give an estimated date you think you will travel and obviously ir is your home country to visit your family. I gave an estimate of 14 days

Based on what everyone is saying here , it looks like it takes a week before they respond.

Ok thats where mine was sent
