Hello, I filed for my minor child online, right now the status of my case is "Case Was Received and A Receipt Notice Was Sent". I look up online and it seems like people get "Case Is Being Actively Reviewed By USCIS" almost immediately. Anyone has any idea about it? Thanks!

Congrats! What is your local office?

yes they did. My reason to expedite was that I couldn't afford out of state fee to enroll in college without the green card. Their reason to deny me: "There's a choice here, you don't have to go to college". You can claim financial loss for your job but I can see the same "reasoning" they might put on you "you don't have to take the job".. But no hurt to try

Yes, that's most of the time how i-485 is expedited. Regular immigration officers cannot approve i-485 expedite request. A supervisor needs to review it. I tried a few years ago myself, and I did go to infopass appointment and they denied it lol

click on the documents tab, then download the appointment scheduled. pdf

Yeah that’s the one. It would be nice to have it cause sometimes notices get lost in the mail

I heard that there will be an online access code somewhere, I just received paper receipt of i-485, i-130, i-765, i-131 but I couldn't see the online access code. How are you guys' experience?

The 25% is consistent with this. FRC https://www.archives.gov/frc/operating-status

The files need to be at NBC before forwarding it to local field office. USCIS stores files in a lot of places like FRC, NRC.

1. There are a lot of files involved in an immigration case, most important ones are your A-file and your background check. What you saw there probably your N400 application. They need the other ones to approve it. Join N-400 May 2020 filers thread cause there's a lot of people got stuck not having interview scheduled because missing A-file. You have similar problem, just at different stage 2. File this for original document https://www.uscis.gov/g-884

Found this on facebook n400 group

I thought the place that got stuck was Federal Records Center (FRC). NRC (National Records Center) is USCIS's record center. I believe these are 2 different places. NRC is still working like usual. FRC is where they have reduced working capacity

You have to change your address cause it's required. There can only be 1 place of PRIMARY residence. The reason for this requirement is that only the local office of your primary residence has jurisdiction over your file/application. So if you're approved by some office that doesn't have jurisdiction on your application, that approval or your citizenship will be deemed invalid (IF FOUND OUT). This is also called misrepresentation.

Rescheduling is a mess with USCIS. Try to go early instead of on time and let the guard know of your situation. They probably will be okay with one person waiting outside with the kids and do the biometrics afterwards.
