Hello Corinthians and Nick and Shannon! Glad to see some familiar faces here ! Congrats on all the little VJ babies :)

Our package is out the door in the morning. Hard to believe it is time to start waiting on a NOA1..again :lol:

Hope it all goes smoothly & quick! :thumbs:

I just checked our bank account - they cashed our check today! Never thought I'd be so happy to say goodbye to $590 :lol:

Just wondering...since they cashed our check, that means they won't be sending our application back for reasons like if we forgot to sign it (even though I know we both signed it) or insufficient completion of application, etc, right? If they were straight up rejecting an application and asking for a resubmission would they cash the check anyway and then just ask for another $590? Just one more thing to ease my mind a little bit if I knew they weren't sending our application back for some reason. I know either way it doesn't mean we won't get an RFE at any point. Hope my question makes sense.

That's correct, they've accepted your application now if they find it short on evidence or something you'll get an RFE but you're filed and in line so to speak.

Hey Becca,

Do you happen to know off hand what are the things to bring for an early bio?

Since my sched is quite a hot mess, I kinda want to have everything ready as soon as I get the bio letter appointment, I would like to go rush in to the local office and do my biometrics.

Our NOA was in the mail today! It says it's extending the conditional for a year. Is this just to allow for the time to get the process completed?

Also, has anyone moved in the middle of this process? We are re-locating from CA to ID when the home sells and I'm hoping it won't be in the middle of all of this!!!

Since my sched is quite a hot mess, I kinda want to have everything ready as soon as I get the bio letter appointment, I would like to go rush in to the local office and do my biometrics.

I believe all you need is your NOA2 with your biometrics appointment on it, as well as picture ID. We haven't done our bio yet for ROC but if I'm remembering correctly, that's all Phil needed for the bio during AOS :)

Our NOA was in the mail today! It says it's extending the conditional for a year. Is this just to allow for the time to get the process completed?

Also, has anyone moved in the middle of this process? We are re-locating from CA to ID when the home sells and I'm hoping it won't be in the middle of all of this!!!

Congrats!! Yes it's just an extension, doesn't mean it will take the full year to process. Let's hope VSC & CSC are quicker than that! :blush: If you do move, just make sure you fill out the AR-11 to inform USCIS of your new address

Great news! We were pleasantly surprised to discover our NOA2 biometrics appointment form in our mailbox today. I updated our record and corrected font and capitalization errors. Thanks to everybody!

Yes. And same question for you too :) When is the Receipt Date on your NOA letter?
