Agree with this wholeheartedly!

I filed at the following address which is stated on the USCIS website when sending with UPS and other couriers: USCIS Attn: AOS (Box 805887) 131 S. Dearborn St., 3rd Floor Chicago, IL 60603-5517

Unfortunately not, despite a few calls and emails to lockbox and USCIS. They are absolutely useless!

A person on one of the other forums on this site confirmed that their credit card had been charged just yesterday. Their package was received on 15th April 2024 at Chicago lockbox. Seems as if the recent fee increase has added to the USCIS backlog and rampant inefficiency!

Congratulations on being one step forward on this painful journey! It gives me hope as I filed on 15th April, with the package being received on 18th April. The entire process is complete madness and entirely dysfunctional. Ridiculous that we are essentially on arrest in the country until the USCIS decides to pull its finger out and process our applications. Sure prisoners have more rights than us at this moment in time! Hoping for a smoother journey for all from here on in!

I filed on the 15th April 20204. UPS confirmed the package had been delivered to Chicago lockbox on the 18th April 2024. Since then no NOA has been received. I received a phonecall from USCIS today....only instructions were to wait a further 3 weeks for NOA. Hope you have better luck, there appears to be a huge backlog, very frustrating!

I filed for I-485 and I-765 on April 15th to Chicago lockbox. Package was received by USCIS by Apr 18th. USCIS attempted to take payment from my credit card on April 29th, however Capital One declined the payment as they thought it may have been fraudulent. Since then I have not received any further information, nor had my package returned. Have inquired with 'Ask Emma' on the current status of my application, however the USCIS agent was unable to find my file on their system, so advised I should email Lockbox Support. It may take between 15-30 days for me to receive a response. Frustratingly, the entire process is beyond cumbersome and full of various pitfalls! USCIS are beyond inefficient.

Is there a current thread for April 2024 AOS filers? If so, can somebody please point me in the direction of the thread which I cannot seem to locate?

Sorry, just to clarify, I was handed a copy of my vaccination report at the end of the assessment. However, the report didn't enable me to complete the Form I-693, so I wasn't sure where to go from there. I included a copy of the medical report in my AOS bundle, so guess I will soon find out whether I receive a referral for further information.

Thanks for advising. Unfortunately, I was never provided with a 3025 by the physician in London. This may have been sent to the US embassy in London as part of my application. I do however have proof from the physician of the vaccinations I took on the day, coupled with all vaccinations I had previously taken (which completes everything that is necessary). Hopefully this information suffices.

Hi All, I recently married my fiancée (US Citizen), and have set about adjusting my status (AOS) from K1 so that I can obtain a Green Card. I understand that part of the AOS (I-485) application requires me to undertake or provide proof of medical examination. I undertook a medical examination back in mid November 2023 in London as part of my K1 application. As such, I was led to believe that I would not have to undergo a secondary examination whilst AOS in the US. I have a copy of my vaccination record was signed and stamped by the US approved physician in London. My question is, do I still need to complete the I-693 form as part of the (I-485), or can I just include a photocopy of the medical examination along with history of my vaccinations?

Congrats!! Do you mind me asking when you originally filed? Apologies if I have missed this information!

Has it been commonplace as of late for the GC to be approved and granted before AP? I want to apply for AP, however cautious that I could be wasting $630.00 (which I could really do with saving at this moment in time) should GC be issued before AP.

Congrats on obtaining your Green Card all. Quick question, did your Green Card arrive before your advance Parole application had been approved? I am due to be filing for AOS within next day or so, however weighing up whether to pay the additional $630.00 for advance parole (in light of new filing fees as of April 1st 2024), considering green card may arrive prior to advance parole approval?
