Hello everyone! Filled my N-400 online on March 11 and my local office is Harlingen Tx. This one seems to be usually pretty fast so let's see how it goes! Got my NOA yesterday as well as a notice of reuse of my biometrics (of course they kept the money though 😅)
-
Do you have any updates? Applied for it on 03/11/22 and I'm curious about the processing times for Harlingen since I live in McAllen.

Hi, I am also a January flier. My case was sent to the SRC center and I already received the GC. Here is my timeline:
PD: January 5, 2021
Approved: April 20, 2021
Card Mailed: April 22, 2021
Cheers
Damn that's fast! I have the same timeline and I'm SRC and originally k-1 but so far I'm still at the fingerprint waived stage.

Just saw on my USPS delivery that I have a letter from USCIS coming today. I wonder if it is a biometric waiver or an RFE. SRC center
Update, I checked my case status and as of 03/08 they updated my case waiving the biometric and using the ones from my AOS.
Package received on 01/06 and NOA from 02/06.

So do two things:
1. Send old ID's that show you both live at the same address2. Send new lease with both of your names on it.
No need to wait for 2020 taxes...they aren't due until April so there's no expectation they'll be included. Also tax transcripts are way more valuable than tax.
I read somewhere that only the official tax transcript has a value to the USCIS, other tax documents don't matter to them.

Yes! I'm fully aware of this. We did it last time when we moved to the current address right now.
I was told that when I sent in the form, I should put the soon-to-be new address on it. Even if I do that, do I still gotta let them know through the website? That's what's confusing right now. We also will not have anything with the new address on it -- except the lease itself -- because it takes time for systems/agencies to update the address on a document and for us to get a copy returned.
Yes even if you put your new address in your application you need to update it on their website. As of not having documents with your new address it's not a big deal if you include the lease with the dates. They can understand you moved recently. Just use proofs of living together with your old address.

I want to add something, because I didn't know about it when I moved.
Don't forget to notify USCIS of your change of address within 10 days of your moving!

We got Texas Service Center! Is there a significance to where they send you or is it just random?
I got Texas too, apparently it's one of the fastest but there's always exceptions! It seems like some service centers process applications that are bound for interviews and others tent to process the cases where interview might be waived. It depends what Visa you originally applied for and if you already got an interview for adjustment of status. But I think I saw a november filler with SRC get his 10 years GC in about 3 months. For others depending on their situation it's been dragging for more than 2 years.

Hi all since my check was cashed this morning is it too soon to call USCIS to get my case number? Also my husband is the petitioner I am the USC, can I call for the information or does my husband have to call?
It seems like everyone who got their checks cashed are getting a text in the following days, in my opinion it's not necessary to call yet.

Good morning everyone! Some good news this morning, I have a pending charge as of today for $680 from USCIS on my credit card!
Package sent on 01/05 and received on 01/06.
Things are moving a little faster than it was a month ago and hopefully my NOA arrives next week!

Hi everyone! I hope someone can help with some info if they know more.
So my window opened late October and my card expires on the 22nd of January. I postponed filing because my husband is deployed and he was supposed to come home the beginning of January. By January 10th we knew it was not going to happen and his arrival date is now beginning of February.
I already sent in my package with my credit card form, and ofc a disclaimer explaining how the form isn’t signed by my husband since he’s not inside CONUS and added his military orders.
I am now very afraid I was too late by sending it ten days before my expiration date - I sent it with overnight shipping via UPS and it was signed for - I have receipt for the signature.
what do you guys think? If it’s sent in the 90 day period they give out, is it alright even if it’s ten days before the period ends? I’m so so worried. It’s been in the lockbox facility since January 15th.An expired GC doesn't mean you lost your permanent resident status. Especially since you filled in time you're not in trouble.
You shouldn't hear about it for a while since they it takes about 6 weeks from the reception for them to start looking at them.
I don't remember about how to fill with a spouse on deployment and the signatures but I'm pretty sure everything is in the instructions for the I-751.

Hi. Have you heard anything from USCIS yet? I sent mine same date as yours, have not yet receive a text message or email til now.
People rarely get the text updates so nothing really out of the ordinary here 😉

Mine was pretty thin compared to other members, it fit in an envelope. I just gave 3 months of bank statements and bills (Electric under my wife's and water under my name), documents proving joint ownership of our house, car insurance with both names, wife's credit card and car loan witch I pay for, both ID's with same address, itinerary for travel to France in 2019. Also a couple of pictures and our joint tax transcript.
I assumed that it is enough to prove that we actually live together and share financial responsibility. I don't think the agent is going to go through 2 years of bank statements, and as long as I get my extension letter if they need more they can send me an RFE if they really need more.
I guess I'll figure in the coming months if it was enough for them to make a decision.

Wow, I thought the NOA was still coming even if check was not cashed until later.
So now her license will expire on Feb 9 and she won't be able to drive. We didn't file at earliest date in November because we moved in December and I have heard a number of stories about them messing up the change of mailing address.
Just in case you haven't done it yet, don't forget to update your address on the USCIS website not only on USPS.

hired a lawyer. she mailed ours last week. still awaiting receipt. in Indiana. does anyone know when we will get a case #? check hasn't been taken yet.
also as in regards to how long before I get myy new greencard?
I thought the lawyer would have given you a heads-up. USCIS is really backlogged right now and it takes 6 to 8 weeks just to process the payments. Then you receive your NOA with your case number. Depending the kind of visa you initially used when you came and where your case is transferred it can take from 4 months to 30 to get your 10 years green card. My advice to this point is reading the different topics to get more information and be patient!

I filed my ROC mid November. It took the mail about a month to deliver it despite the 2-day delivery I paid for. It finally got delivered on December 28.
I still haven't received my NOA1?
My greencard (and drivers license) expires on January 28.
I'm working and driving and I don't know what to do if I don't get the notification that they received and are working on my application. I will have no proof of having taken the necessary steps to be and stay legal.
Without the extension letter and proof of application I will not be able to extend my driver's license. Am I even allowed to work once it expires? Can this count against me if I continue to work?
What do I do?
I cant fo online to check status, without the NOA1 I have no application number to look for.
I will start calling the USCIS on Monday. But my past experiences are 3 hour hold times.
Any advise would be welcome.
It is "normal" if you didn't get the NOA yet, the USCIS is barely sending them to late november applicants so right now it takes about 6 weeks before the payments are cashed and the NOA sent.
You shouldn't have issues to work considering that even if your gc expires you're still considered a LPR since you're in the renewal process.
The driving licence is another issue and I'm afraid you won't be able to renew it before it expires since there's delays.
Hopefully they can shorten the delays.

CR-1. That's probably why we WILL get an interview. Some people who have previously interviewed with USCIS (Adjustment of Status) have had their ROC interviews waived. But it is still a long wait for some of us.
So I guess the type of visa has more of an influence than the area you live in.
