Just in case you were wondering, 248 days is a little more than 8 months. Wonderful. Hopefully it will not take that long

You should feel lucky - I filed last September at CSC, my "estimate" was 425 days! and, it looks like that may be accurate......

04/12/2008: N-400 Application mailed (CSC)

04/18/2008: Check cashed

Quick question: do they assign the priority date according to the date the package is signed for, or the date the check is cashed?

Ours was accepted by VSC on April 25 (according to the return receipt, although US postal services says it was delivered on April 24) but as of today the check has not been cashed.

Will our priority date be April 25 or into May?

Thanks

Hey

VSC will process application after they cash the check. It will take one extra day for you to see cashed check through your bank. My cashed check had my receipt number on it. It is the same as my NOA..

My NOA date is dated april 10, they cashed the check on 8th.

So if they accepted on 25th, and everything was correct you will see cashed check i think today or most tomorrow..

Most probably your NOA will be dated as of May, but when you check your case status online it will say that they received it on april...

I hope this helped

thanks Klanecky

it feels weird that the packet was received on April 24/25 and the check has not been cashed yet. It seems that is the first thing they do at USCIS and five days have passed :unsure:

I am already feeling worried

My check was cashed on 4/18 and I don't have NOA yet (also no receipt number on the check). So yeah, I'm starting to worry too -- but you know, this is the USCIS we're talking about, things take a while, and there's often no rhyme or reason...

Hi all,

I'd also like to join this journey :) I filed for N-400 on March 28 (Nebraska with Seattle as District), and received my NOA on April 4. No news yet on biometrics. That said, my I-751 is still being processed in the Nebraska backlog that recently got transferred to CSC - so my bios may be being held up for that reason.

Still, good to see so many April filers!!!!

Darren

Got my NOA today -- see below for update timeline.

Interesting though, it said "receipt with exception", and talked about "missing evidence", even though I'm sure I sent everything. I did a quick search and it seems like this is the boilerplate notice for lots of people and that it's nothing to worry about. Please indicate if your NOA's say this when you get them... Thanks!!

Thanks Pascal for the information about the "missing evidence" with the NOA.

K: I know how the wait can be frustrating (I'm still awaiting approval on my I-751 that was sent a year ago!!). Hang in there!
