NOA1 Notification Question

[jpcanon 0]

Just to make sure I have this right: To get the notification that they received it and opened it (in my case California Service Center) you have to wait for a notice to come in the U.S. mail or get info (case number) off of cancelled check, in order to then check status online at USCIS? I registered for updates, but they would have just received my K1 packet yesterday at the center. I am guessing they do not send email NOA1 notices?

Thanks,

Joe

Yes, you should get the official looking NOA1 about 10 days after they receive it.

The fastest way to get your case number would be that it's stamped on the back

of your canceled check. They cash it electronically, so if you have internet access

to your bank account, you should see it in about 2 days.

They (USCIS) won't email you any notice for a NOA1 - even though you may (like most of us) have put an email address on the I-129f. However, once you've gotten your NOA1 (and case number) you can register on the USCIS web site - and get (if you choose) an email for subsequent NOAs.
