Just wanted to follow up and let anybody  know in the same situation, I just got in the mail today the check back telling me I didn't need to send that payment and nothing else is needed from me for now. OUF, what a relief I was scared that it would have delayed the entire process

I feel you, all I do is watch a bunch of series, cook and eat eat eat LOL.
I started going to the gym again, it helps and at least I get out of the house a bit. We can do this!!

Thanks, yes Im impressed
You're almost there!! Hang tie

Speaking of biometrics. My appointment was 2pm yesterday in Denver but because I was helping a friend in Denver out with some things I went for a walk in. So at 10:30am I walked in and there was maybe half a dozen people in the waiting area. The guard took my passport and appointment letter, had me fill out a form and then I gave it back to her. She gave me all of my stuff back and the form and a number. I went to sit down but before I could sit my number was called. lol I was in and out in 10 minutes.

To add to your advice, each ASC office is different and can change. @MrsMcCannigan: If you want some peace of mind, you can read other VJ members experiences with early biometrics walk-in below (your ASC office might or might not be on this list): http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/367977-thinking-of-early-walk-in-for-biometrics/
 

Yea thanks! I signed up with that informed delivery in going to call money gram today to see if the checks have been cashed! 

Awesome, one step down, more to go!

Thank you for your help, my package was received at the Lockbox on Jan 8th.
I just saw on my bank account, they cashed just the 2 checks needed ($535 and $1225), does it mean they accepted my package and are just sending me back the extra check?
 
from the link you sent me it seems that sometimes they send you back the check with no pb or they reject the entire package, but since they cashed the 2 other checks Im assuming they accepted my application. Right? I will email them tomorrow 1st thing.
 
Thank you

It is not necessary but if you wanted you could have, I know 2 different couples that went thru this process, one of them sent proof of bona fide marriage and the others didnt, both were approved with no pb, so I dont think it is a big deal

Today is a good day! Got a decent second hand car for a good price and received my NOA1 hard copies in the mail. Husband's gonna start teaching me how to drive so I can get a license ASAP. Hopefully the biometrics schedule comes soon. Good luck to us all!

I think that they either send you the receipt notice or a rejection letter, I guess they wouldn’t cash the checks if they reject the applications but who knows with this country! (just kidding)
 
So I got the NOA I was missing (yay!) and I also got today (we just moved out so I put the mail on hold for several days) the appointment for the biometrics, which is February 2nd, one month exactly since I applied! So you should get yours soon too!!
 
I hope you have a great weekend too!!
 

Oh nice! Congrats. I guess we just have to be patient!😏 I'm wondering if after getting the noa if we can use the receipt number to check future notices?🤔 I'll have to research that anyways I'll keep updating! Good luck with everything!

I didn't fill out the forms to receive electronic notifications   thought I wouldn't receive any hard copies if I did, so I am anxiously checking our bank accounts and the mail box, from what I read it takes about 2-3 weeks to get NOA in the mail.
My husband is also an active duty military and we also got married in July 2017 but our relationship is shorter 2 years lol.
 
Good luck

3 months is good I like that!!!
 
Yeah most likely your move may affect the process, hoping you get the EAD before that so that we can work and keep yourself busy in the mean time!
 
Take care
