Good luck to everyone still waiting!

Anyone else seeing this new case status style page?

Mine looks the same "Case Was Received And A Receipt Notice Was Emailed" now. Submitted Aug 22 2020

I just received an email stating that my interview for my I-751 has been scheduled and that I will receive a letter in the mail with further information. I call USCIS and asked if this will be a combo interview since I submitted my N-400 application on 8/22/20 and received a letter stating my biometrics will be reused 10/22/20 and the said no.

Does this mean I will need to go for an interview for my I-751 and then another separate interview for my N-400, is this normal?

I used chrome and the documents are still there so I think you should be fine. But I’d be interested to hear what the phone call told you.

I called this morning and was told even though a line in my address was missing on what I could see in my profile, the line was visible on their side. The agent also advised that the documents were reflecting and if they need anything further they would contact me. My 18 month extension letter for my  ROC is going to expire in Oct 2020, I was told that 10 days before it expires I can schedule an emergency appointment at my local office if my employer needs the proof or if I need to travel for an emergency. 

Submitted my N-400 today on Chrome and after the second try, it appeared that all the documents "stuck" so fingers crossed. What happens if they are not all there? Is there a way to upload them after the submission? Also, checked my profile on my USCIS account and my address does not have my apartment number? Thinking I'll call them on Monday...

SRC tracking number, below are my last updates / notifications... now do we just wait? My 18 month extension will run out in September. Not sure what to do about that?

01/11/20 - Received letter stating my case has been transferred to the Potomac Service Center

3/19/20 - Received email stating they are ready to schedule an interview

Are you planning to apply for Citizenship?

I am. But I'd like to have dual citizenship. To do this I need to submit an application to the South African consulate to retain my South African Citizenship before I apply to become a US citizen. The South African Consulates are all closed until further notice.

Thank you. Our ROC case is stuck at "Ready to be scheduled for interview". This gives me hope that USCIS might come to its senses and approve ROC cases without interview

My SRC case is also stuck at "Ready to be scheduled for interview" since the 18th of March. Fingers crossed more start moving in this direction.

Your case was probably  moved to Potomac. From my observation , Potomac have been approving i751 without interviews.

We are SRC filers and were moved to Potomac, did not have an interview on my K1 and have be told we will be scheduled for an interview. Our evidence was pretty solid too, in my opinion.

You said that you received email? I never received any email from them, just letters. 

I believe you have to sign up to receive emails & text messages with the G-1145, if you did that then I'm not sure why you wouldn't.

Either way it took  +/-10 weeks after my case was transferred to hear anything electronically and as I mentioned I still don't have a hard copy.

At least you got any update! 
mine was transferred 04 february and no update. 
did you apply for n400 together?

It sounds like that may be normal, mine was transferred almost an entire month before yours. 

I have not applied for my N400 yet, no.

I still have not received anything in the mail though.

Received email stating they are ready to schedule an interview for my I751.

Is this random or because I did not submit enough evidence? If anyone could offer some guidance on what to expect at the interview or what I should take , I'd really appreciate it. 

I was a K1 applicant originally and got my green card without an interview. SRC filer transferred to Potomac.

What's the new jurisdiction? And is that a good sign of approval 😊

Received the letter from USCIS and my case has been transferred to the POTOMAC SERVICE CENTER. Is this is a good sign?

Any March SRC approvals yet?

Nope.

Received my Bio appointment for Nov 15, 2019. My application was received on 03/05/2019.

What happens are the bio-metrics appointment, do we have any time frames to work off of?

Also, my GC expired 04/12/19 & I have the 18 month extension letter. What happens if I want to travel internationally after April 2020 and I have not received the approval of my removal of conditions yet?

You can choose "Forgot Confirmation Number", although it does request an email address instead.

No, it won't impact your petition or her immigrant visa application.

 

No idea on the company, but it sounds like a scam. It's free to apply for DV lottery and does not take long to complete the form (they would have had to provide all thew same info to the company, so it's not faster going with them).

I used the "Forgot Confirmation Number" and tried her details with both her work and personal email address. Nothing comes up.

If it won't affect my petition then I really couldn't be bothered other than the money she lost, but that's done.

Have they tried checking if they applied?

https://www.dvlottery.state.gov/esc/

I just did and nothing seems to come up for the last two (there is no confirmation number) , if they did enter her, will it affect my sponsoring her or her chance of getting permanent residence through me?

The company is Global USA Green Card and another one called her today - The Immigration Enterprise Group. It just makes me so angry.

I know in Ghana it is pretty common to go to an internet cafe and have them fill out the diversity lottery application for you online. They usually charge a small (few dollars) fee. If it’s legit they should have provided her with a confirmation page that has her confirmation number and some bio info.

This company - Global USA Green Card, charged her about $270

I am not aware of any agency that can apply for us immigration on behalf of an applicant 

Thank you!

Applying for DV or being scammed and not applying for DV has no affect 

So you don't think they actually applied for it on her behalf?
