  1. Maybe the night time filing bumped date to next business day?
  2. Still waiting to receive NOA via mail (snail mail at its finest). Did see that yesterday they posted letter on my account that my biometrics are being reused! Sweet!!!
  3. Filed at Chicago Lockbox...N-400 application received on 2/15/24 with update on USCIS online; text notification on 02/20/2024 that application accepted. Still waiting on NOA to arrive in mail. Field office is Detroit.
  4. Wondering if the N-400s are being processed a little quicker with it being an election year? Hmmmm....
  5. Submitted N-400 by mail on 2/15/2024; got notice today application was accepted. Things here got complicated and pulled my bootstraps up and changed my course and got off the crazy train! Putting it out here in case somebody else needs to see the paper trail to shift the process. Basically, filed I-751 jointly with U.S. citizen husband (at the time) to remove conditions. Ended up requesting an amendment to the jointly filed I-751 on 9/13/2023 as I was finally able to leave a domestic violence relationship with support. Requested that the jointly filed I-751 be amended to a waiver petition based on battery and extreme cruelty by spouse, and noted was divorced by then as well. Provided supporting documents such as police reports, Personal Protection Order, letters verifying staying at a safe house and crisis intervention, divorce documents (divorced July 2023), medical reports outlining injuries, and supporting affidavits. Citizenship can be granted within 3 years if the waiver petition is approved. Fingers crossed!
  6. My biometrics are being re-used....LOVE IT!!! Got 48 month extension notice for green card. Application being processed at Nebraska Service Center.
  7. Payment (check) has cleared! I-129 (1st Submission): Sent 2/14/23; Delivered 2/15/23; Application rejected due to credit card payment being flagged as fraud! Rec'd package back on 3/2/23 I-129 (2nd Submission): Sent 3/2/23; Delivered 3/4/23; Accepted on 3/9/223; check processed 3/10/23
  8. Well we got a text notice today to say that our case was received. Check hasn't cashed yet, but should be showing up anytime. Waiting for our Receipt Notice in the mail!
  9. It's VERY frustrating! Remember, they haven't accepted your package yet and will be sending it back. If you're not waiting for it, make sure you send a NEW package (we kept copies of original package in case it went missing) with your updated letter. They still need a package with the new payment. Good Luck!!!
  10. They will send you back the package since the payment was rejected (we had the same thing happen!). Won't help to contact Lockbox...we emailed them and they said (after a few weeks) that we would have to resubmit. They specifically state that they only try to charge the credit card once. I would wait for your package to return and then include the rejection letter and note your first payment was flagged as fraud. You have the option to call your credit card company and tell them to authorize it next time, but I simply don't trust them not to screw it up again. So we did a check and I will wait to see it clear the bank.
  11. Yes, they ship your package back to you (we got our sticky tabs included too). We just got ours back (declined credit card on 2/17/23 suspect fraud) on the package arrived back to us on 3/4/23. We sent package back out same day with a check (after reassembling the package) so credit card company doesn't mess it up. You will have to reorganize the paperwork as it's not in the same order when they send it back. We sent ours to Elgin Lockbox and are in Michigan, just south of Detroit. Waiting on check to post to our account.
  12. We sent our application via FedEx on 2/14/2023 to Elgin Lockbox....exactly the 90 day mark. Got notification 2/17/2023 that credit card was declined. Thank you Discover for flagging the purchase as fraud! Their approach was have the vendor resubmit. Here's to another chunky fee to FedEx the package again, once we get it back! Definitely will send a check this time (did credit card because thought it would move faster...I stand corrected!) and should be good to move forward. Good luck everybody!!!
  13. Definitely send a check! Our I-751 application payment in form of credit card (Discover) was declined. Discover flagged the charge as FRAUD even though we've made payment before. Credit card company won't "hold" to check to see if charge is legit (I got a hold of them within minutes of finding out via text and email the charge was declined), but Discover outright declines it and says for vendor to redo purchase. I talked to Discover a long time about this process...got a sorry...oh well! USCIS of course only processes credit card payment once per application so we will had to redo the payment. FRUSTRATING! At least we know USCIS (Elgin Lockbox) were going to accept the documents since they tried to process payment. Good thing we started this process at the 90 day mark! The adventure continues!
  14. Green Card arrived today (AOS approved 5/14/2021)! Will be filing to remove conditions 90 days before expiry in about 2 years! We made it!!!
