We have sent our package on March 11th and it got to Chicago on March 14 and we still didn get a NOA. Shoul I be worried, should I call them? I dont even know the number or anything. I'm pretty much freaking out right now.

Please HELP!

Its hard not to freak out but dont. Save the freaking out for when you are waiting for your biometric letter, or waiting to see if your file online gets touched or even when you get an interview. :blink:

I am joking!!

Try to relax :hehe: . It can take them up to 30 days to send you your first notice of action. Did your checks get cashed yet?

After 30 days you can all the 1-800 number and see what's going on.

last 4 days i see that more people joined to our forum, more march filers....

I'm not sure the congressman could do anything about this; I hear they only expedite these sort of things for very, VERY specific reasons (avoiding birthing costs not being one of them). XD

Honestly, it wouldn't be near as bad if we could finish our degrees online (or elsewhere), because there are other places where job oppertunities for my husband are far better, but until we graduate we're chained to this #######-hole of a town. :( Oh, well. We'll just hope for the best and if not, we'll make the best out of it anyway. :) I'm mostly just worried that either our educations will get nixed, or my husband won't get to see his child, or that I'll somehow incur a ban on myself or make the immigration process more difficult if we have to go the CR-1 route.

bad news is I think CR-1 take more than an AOS process,

so you have received the RFE papers yet? what is it about?

Uhhh. So, my walk-in biometrics experience was not as easy sailing as it has been for many others..But luckily ended with success, thanks to the wonderful and very accommodating people at the Manhattan Varick street location.

I had my biometrics scheduled for 04/14, at the Brooklyn ASC office (which, by the way, is in a reeeally dodgy neighborhood..). Otherwise I wouldn't of been in any hurry to do it sooner, but I have recently been offered a possibility to turn my current internship into a (well) paid consultancy. Right now I of course cannot work since I do not have EAD, and my supervisor has been very understanding and is doing her best to delay the whole hiring process to give me enough time to get my EAD. So, because of this, I really wanted to get my biometrics done as early as possible to hopefully get the EAD early as well, maybe with a help of a congressman.

So. After reading posts here from people who have in the past done a successful walk-in at the Brooklyn location, I tried that for the first time yesterday morning. Went there on a Wednesday, was there before the office opened at 8am, waited in line. They called in people who had 8am appointments first, and then around 8:20 started to call for people with 9am appointments. There were about 10 people there at that time, in addition to me. I went up to the security guy and told him my appointment wasn't until the 14th, but wanted to see if I could do a walk-in. Not a chance. He said immediately (and he was being very nice throughout this conversation), that they had approximately 400 people scheduled for that day and there is no way they would be taking walk-ins. I asked if they never do walk-ins of if I could try on another day or another time, and he said that it is best to come after 12.

So. Second try today. Went back to the dodgy ASC (which is in a really weird shopping mall), was there around 12:15pm. There was no line, walked into the office and up to the same security guy. There were about 15-20 people sitting in the waiting area. Told him the same thing - wanted to come for a walk-in if possible. He was still nice and polite, but this time said "No. We do not do walk-ins here at all." He basically said that they get so many scheduled appointments each day, that they have decided to make it a policy not to take any walk-ins on any days.

I walked out, and considered my options. After going up there twice it was obvious that there would be no point in trying to do a walk-in there on another day or another time - they just wouldn't do it. Which I do understand. From what I know, that particular Brooklyn ASC serves ALL of Brooklyn - there is no other location here. So I can see why they are so busy and have so many appointments for each day, probably much more than most ASC offices do.

Since I had already wasted several hours on this, I decided to give it one more try, this time in another ASC location. The only one I knew of in Manhattan was the Varick street office, and it was pretty fast and easy for me to get to. So, I traveled there.

First security guy told me I could go up to the office and ask them if I could do my biometrics there though my appointment was not until two weeks from now AND scheduled for another office. I go upstairs, ask the security lady there. she said I had to ask this other lady at the reception desk. I talk to her, she is a bit hesitant and says they probably can't do it, but she will check with the supervisor. She goes to speak to the supervisor lady, who comes to ask me why I want to get my biometrics taken earlier and why I came to a different location. I explain to her that I have a really good job offer, but don't have that much time to get my EAD to be able to get the job, and that I did try Brooklyn location twice but was told they do not do walk-ins at all. She is also a bit hesitant, but goes to talk to someone else. She comes back in a couple of minutes and tells me I can do it there.

So, end result - had my biometrics taken at Varick st. location, the whole thing from entering that building to walking out took less than 20 minutes, there were barely any people there when I went, which was around 1:30pm or so. The people were super nice and helpful, and even though they could have just denied me without having to even look at my papers or listen to my reasons, they really were being extra accommodating and understanding and the whole experience there was great.

As I said, Brooklyn office service was good too. The guard was nice, but very firm on his answers. This is also to inform others who have biometrics scheduled for Brooklyn ASC. Early walk-in probably won't work.

All's well that ends well. Now I am gonna wait until mid-April, and then try to get the congressman involved to get my EAD as fast as possible.

Sorry that you had to go through all that trouble. I wonder if we had the same security guard in the Brooklyn ASC? We did a walk in there a few weeks ago successfully... on a Wed morning too. But, at least you've gotten it taken care despite the trouble!

I think you made a mistake, you made a mistake by being `upfront` about it. It's funny that's how I am on many things but not this time. I didn't say anything to anybody, when it was my turn to go through the security gate, he checked my papers and said `naaah it's fine they don't care` and that was it....

also it's true that on the 10th floor, there hardly anybody on the biometric floor...

but anywho i told you guys right, varick street people are really nice, :)

overall nice work, now come the EAD...

I doubt just going up to him would have made any difference, he turned down two people in front of me yesterday who tried to just walk up, give him their receipt and do a walk-in. Another security guard inside the office also brought back a person the security guy at the door had mistakenly let in, who did not have an appointment for that day. Whether or not it is an actual new policy to not take walk-ins there at all, I don't know - if I had gone back tomorrow, they might have taken me without any problems. However, attempting to do a walk-in three times in the same location after being told twice that it can't be done just seemed like hitting my head against the same wall.

Anyways, kudos to Varick Street people. I'm just happy I managed to get it done!

I have great news!

I called USCIS and an operator transferred me to another line and everything that i needed to know was answered. :)

She has a weird accent and i was so distracted lol! Anyways, she said that my AOS package was received on March 7th and after two weeks they cashed the check, that was 2days ago. Kinda took awhile.

And she even gave me my Receipt #. Starts with MSC.

Well that was a big relief. Its like a big thorn pulled out from my brain lol! :D

Today I received my electronic NOA1 - four text messages (emails as well). I sent my AOS package to Chicago on March 15 by FedEx overnight, so it was received on the 16th. I was starting to get a little panicked this week that it still had not been received... so hang in there everyone else who filed mid-March and is still waiting to hear something.

USCIS uses regular USPS mail when they send something. I got my original birth certificate yesterday - it was mailed as PRIORITY from Finland on April 14th, and it was stamped in the US on April 21st, meaning it has been in the hands of USPS since then - for about 5 weeks now.. So. It can take longer than 3-4 days :) Don't worry about it not being delivered yet, it will come and probably by the end of this week.

I hate USPS.
