I just received a text message from USCIS with the following message "Your case was received. Receipt #EACxxxxxxxx. Official receipt notice (Form I-797) to follow in mail". I guess my case was transferred to Vermont Service Center.

WOA GUYS! Just got my NOA/extension! IT'S AN EARLY CHRISTMAS MIRACLE! 

Just got a call from USCIS that they will send duplicate notice. As someone reported, there was issue with Texas Lockbox and notices were not printed for some time.
Got an email
 
"We are pleased we could assist you with your request today via telephone. As discussed in our conversation, a request was submitted on February 11, 2019 for a copy of your receipt notice. The Texas Service Center will respond to the inquiry on or before February 26, 2019."
 
FYI,for me the call came from New York number. So if you have been ignoring spam calls like me, it is good idea to pick calls from other cities as well.

Our package was delivered this morning.. 730 am in Dallas Tx!

Mine was received on 02/08 as well. Hopefully we should hear something by Friday this week.

thanks for the answer.They have not cashed my check yet. Never want to get my check cashed so bad like this before lol
I will make a call when I see anything from my bank account. 

Package sent on 2/6 by fed Ex to Lewisville, Texas
Received on 2/7
Card processed on 2/11 with confirmation text and case number starting with MSC
 
Good luck to everyone!

I saw some posts that if your end goal is to be a citizen, then you can file N400 (90 days before 3rd year GC anniversary) and most of the cases is being processed a lot faster since N400 has more priority than I-751. They usually do a JOINT I-751/N400 interview.
 
But some people also says that it really depends on the local office workloads.
 
I plan to do that too next year. 😊

I just got off the phone with USCIS as well. They were able to track down my receipt # (starts with LIN) which means they have my paperwork and it's in process. They said I should receive my NoA by the end of this month, but if I don't, then I will have to call them again to get the info pass to go to the local USCIS office here in Louisville and get my passport stamped. Hope to see that NoA before the end of this month, then!
 
Good luck everyone else who's dealing with this issue too!

They're all slow as hell. But we seem to be going to the Lincoln, NE service center, which states from 16 to 24 months of processing time.

I went to my infopass appointment today because it’s been 7 weeks since package delivered and I haven’t received anything. 
They were able to give me my receipt number and stamp my passport! 
For the SRC people- the officer told me that they are having issues with the pritining, my case was received but for some reason never mailed to me. 
I am able to see it on the USCIS website when I check tho so I’m happy with that. 
 
He he also said biometrics appointments have been delayed because of how long it’s taking them to process this cases( he mentioned that by the time they give you an interview-if so, the fingerprints are expired already) so he said I might not get biometrics for a while.
 
Hope this info helps for people filing in Dallas ! 

Thanks for updating your timeline.

Such a relief, Congratulations!

Best wishes @bigjailerman

Our package will go out Monday morning.... 🤞
Dallas Texas via USPS Priority

at last. Yesterday my extension arrived, my gc expires on Monday and I had infopass on Tuesday, so I no longer have to go to the appointment, it was all in response to a request I made on the uscis page. I can rest a little

Just wanted to give an update that I mailed our paperwork on 1/29 to Arizona lockbox. Received 2/1. Check cashed 2/6. Today we received 18 month extension notice dated 2/5, with a receipt number starting LIN.

They seem to be moving fast this time around. I quite expected the opposite. I sincerely hope they continue this way and end our anxiety quickly Haha! 

Hi Everyone, hope everyone are doing well. I can't believe it's been 2 years since the conditional Green Card approval and good to see some familiar names from 2017 October AOS filers. 
 
My ROC window opened on the 26th of January 2019 and I mailed my ROC package today (02/06/2019). Looks like many of the January 2019 filers are receiving their extension letters within 15 - 20 days of applying. Hope this trend holds good for everyone as well.

I'm glad I read your post as I was not aware of the unrestricted SS card. My GC expires on the 25th of April and I had a restriction on my card (authorized to work only with DHS approval). So the very next day after reading your post, I rushed to the SS office first thing in the morning and applied for an unrestricted card. The lady at the service window was very nice and helpful, I was in and out in under 30 mins. I applied on a Thursday and received my unrestricted SS card the following Tuesday. Thank you H-M!
