Today's updated AOS list.
I'm watching the tracking on USPS for our RFE package. Hubbie has to go to school to schedule his summer classes and get his orientation date fixed.

Arazia,
Sorry to hear that. Was your case touched before you received the RFE?
I'm wondering why gustahot's cased was touched too.
I stopped checking the website because we have our biometrics next week so I know we can't be approved or anything. So, I just checked the website after reading your posts and there is no update.
I can't wait for the biometrics and then the approval...!
There was a touch on the 10th, which I thought was the biometrics, but maybe it was the RFE, there's really no knowing. I'm just kind of worried because I've heard horror stories about people getting their applications denied for not sending things back exactly correct and then not knowing about it for months. I guess I'm just a worry wart.
-
So, I guess I'm in the group of lucky individuals who got their AOS application RFE'd for something they already sent in. The RFE was for my (the sponsor's) W-2's. We attached three years worth, each of them behind the federal tax return for that year.
So, we rushed out, made new copies, and re-submitted everything. What a pain in the rear end.
-
Merf.
We received an RFE today for my (the sponsor's) W-2's. Of course, they don't say what year's W-2's they want, and it's really oddly worded. So, with my usual panic when it comes to these things, we copied my W-2's for the past three years (2004, 2005, 2006) and re-sent the federal tax returns for those years. Put them out in the mail just a few minutes ago.
Oh, and this is another case of them asking for something they already got. We submitted all of this stuff with our original application. I'm starting to wonder if someone just likes losing things over there, or if they are doing it on purpose to make people wait longer.
*annoyed*

We received our NOA1 May 10, 2007
Updated. Also added a few people from the April list that are very obviously in May. If it makes them feel better to consider themselves April filers, more power too them, but it might help people who filed in May who are looking to get a better reference on time. I'll try to keep up with some of the people who cross threads, but I might fall behind on some.

Mine took about three months from NOA1 to NOA2, with Thanksgiving holiday in between.

Added the new people who filed today to the list. Make sure you update us when your package arrives at the Chicago lockbox! We've still got some people from early May who haven't updated us recently.

05/21/07 - I-130, I-765, I-131 Touched!!
Hey gustahot? Is the date you have for your NOA1 the date you received the letter, or the notice date? It seems a bit 'off' compared to other NOA1 notice dates.
-
Updated the list again.
It's strange, we have these big gaps in time. No new folks sent anything between the 13th and today? It seems like a bit of a 'slow' month. Oh wells. My mother is giving hubbie a ride to his biometrics this Friday, so I don't have to take another day off of work.

Updated the list of May filers.
No news on our front, but I'm not expecting anything until after biometrics. Still having a lot of struggles with college related stuff. I don't think they've ever dealt with a situation quite like ours. Oh well.

Well I got a rejection notice that says:
Your application package was submitted with a single remittance and one or more of the applications were unacceptablein the package for the reason specified on the related notice of action. Please correct the flawed application and resubmit the application package with the appropriate fees.
That's what it says for my AOS application, it says the same thing with my EAD, and for the AOS I filed for my daughter it says that my signature is not valid, I signed it once for my daughter because she is under 14, I didn't know that I had to sign it on both lines.
It's very dissapointing really.
I assume that they want a separate check for everything, I thought that one check for all would be ok.
I think you should probably remit a check for each of the different applications that you're filing. For AOS, I know you can combine the AOS fee and the biometrics fee into one check for $395. I'm not sure how the EAD works, as we didn't file that one, ourselves. So, I would suggest doing one check for your AOS + biometrics, one check for your daughter's AOS + biometrics, and one for your EAD, and make sure it's attached directly to each application.
-
My biometrics appt seems to be a tad bit later than the others - if you compare our NOA dates. Could this be because I live in Orlando (there are a lot of immigrants here)?
Well, don't look a gift horse in the mouth, right?
We are really happy to have a date - and after the school year is over - so better for me.
Could be the location, could be due to when weekends fall. I'm just glad to get ours before the summer semester starts for hubbi's college. Of course, we're having issues with that, too.
He's supposed to go part-time this summer, but they say before he can attend full-time he has to take an orientation. Well, the orientation date they gave is after the start of the summer semester, and they have his registration locked so he can't register for any classes. I'm having him call up and ask what is going on, today.

Updated to add our newest addition. *poofs to go home from work*

Hihi
We were supposed to be in the April filers thread but things got delayed so... here we are! I'm hoping we'll get our NOA1 any day now since they cashed the checks. (I tried typing the case file in but it hasn't been updated in the system yet.. not that I'm anxious or anything. lol)
Welcome to the May filers.
Do you know when your application was received at the lock box?

Got biometrics letter today. Date is on the 25th. He did well on his english placement, but not good on his math. Which kind of surprised and disappointed me. Oh well.

First update of the day. Although it looks like we need to fix information for gustahot. No big deal either way. My hubbie is off taking placement tests for his new community college today. I hope he does well.

Well, the first thing I would do is take the money in a lump sum. I'd put most of it into investments, while making sure we had enough set aside in 'normal' savings to cover the rest of my husband's education. I would probably re-train for a different job that I would enjoy more. I certainly wouldn't quit my current job right away, though. I'd make sure they had plenty of time to find a replacement and help to train them.

Yep, that's the same RFE that my husband and I received. There was nothing we could do but turn it around and send out another copy of the W-2's. Maybe we ended up with the same bozo handling our case and he/she just doesn't know how to hold on to W-2's.
