Oh, when were your appointment for ? And what did they say in order to get your biometrics done earlier? I think I'm gonna try that too but I'd like to know what to say etc ?? Thank you so much!!

The appointment was originally for August 2nd! We just asked if there was availability to do it today and they said not at that moment, but we could wait 30 minutes and if someone had not shown up for their app, we could take their appointment slot.

Hey all! We sent our AOS package on 3/22 and our NOA 1 was dated 4/16. We just received our biometrics letter on Saturday. The appointment is scheduled for 6/30. 

Congrats! Good to see cases moving forward. Did your case status online update at all? Or is it just a letter in the mail that's received?

Thank you!! Is it true that some people are getting their biometrics waived?

 I may be wrong but from what I understood they're waiving them for EAD renewal applicants so I'm not sure if it would apply to i-485 and people applying for EAD the first time.

OMG GUYS! after 45 days of waiting, the checks were just cashed!!! 😭 since February 18th that we sent our package, the nightmare of USPS delivering the packets, the rejection and all that, I think finally we are starting the process!!!!!!!

Congrats!!! That's amazing news and you must feel a wave of relief  Now it's a waiting game till Biometrics.

Okay so update, I ended up calling USCIS because I was nervous my packet was being sent back! After some waiting I was finally connected to an agent who let me know that my case numbers were just generated and my NOA notice sent out on May 1st. It also says my fingerprint fee has been received on the USCIS case tracker even though the check hasn't been cashed. No idea why I didn't receive a text but definitely happy to get my case numbers

Try talking to Emma? If check is not cashed I dont know if they can give any info tho, but may be try!

Yeah, I'm not sure if there's much Emma can do if the check hasn't been cashed. It just tells me to wait or contact the Lockbox facility which I've already done. 

I'm feeling very worried! My package was delivered on April 2nd to the Chicago office and still haven't received a text or seen the check cashed  Not sure what I can do at this point. 

Ah I'm hoping to hear soon! Mine arrived April 2nd at the Chicago Lockbox and no text or check cashed yet. 😅

Was hoping to get my check cashed or some sort of notification today but hasn't happened yet! Fingers crossed. 

Has anyone had any update here? Mine arrived April 2nd and no texts or check cashed yet 😕

Seems folks are overly concerned when their check is cashed. The concern should be when you receive the  NOA and your case numbers. If we know nothing else trust me Uncle Sam will get his money!

Very true! I guess I've been looking for any sign that they're moving forward.

But NOA1 and case number are probably one of the most important things. I haven't been able to get my Driver's License here in FL since they say a NOA1 is required. 

Sent my package in February but got rejected and had to resend. So trying this again!

Package arrived at Chicago Lockbox 4/2

Waiting for check to be cashed!

I re did the AOSform because that one was expiring soon, the I-130, I-765 and I-131 send it like it was, because the problem was the payment, omg now I'm scared

I called a lawyer and they told me to change only the form that had the issue / was expiring soon and send everything else as it was. Hopefully it's okay!

They rejected mine, came on the mail today saying that the payment amount is incorrect or has not been provided and I thought it was because I didn't put the N/A.
Basically everything that I organized with sticky tabs and all that is destroyed. fml

I will have to re do everything because I even think the applications has changed.

This exact same thing happened to me and I'm still not 100% sure why mine was rejected. I had put the payment in and they even returned the check to me. They completely disorganized my packet too. I couldn't even make sense of what they did, they just like stapled random things back together.

Are you a K1 marriage based I-485? What code did you use?

 

Be sure to use the correct filing code of (c)(9) if this code applies to you. The I-485 instructions explains all the codes in detail. If you are filing under a different code (other than (c)(9) the fee for your AOS will not be correct and USCIS will reject your entire packet.

Yes, We are K1 marriage based. We did put the c9 code on our packet. 

Unfortunately we just received a rejection notice in the mail for incorrect payment amount. Can anyone confirm the amount their check was? I had thought it was $1225

Still waiting! 

Case Received at Chicago Lockbox on 2/24. 

Check has not been cashed yet. 

Do you have access to the appointment scheduling site? They've opened up more appointments recently. 

Was the CEAC website saying ready? Maybe that's why the fingerprints couldn't be taken?

We have our interview there in a couple of weeks. How did the interview go? Is the process fast?

That seems like great news! Did the Argentine embassy give you a date for an interview soon? I keep waiting for an interview but see no appointments available on the website.

I just got access to the platform to look if there are any appointments but I haven't seen any. Were they uploading them regularly before?
