I second everything that's been said so far, it's a stressful time, no matter what, the waiting drove me crazy too. It took about a month till I got the biometrics letter and the appointment was about two weeks after that. Never got a notification or online update for that (I don't think they update for sending that out...)

The most reliable way to do it is entering your receipt number into the USCIS.gov website. I dont believe their texting/emailing system is quite as good...

I only check two - The I-485 receipt number will show when they have receive your application and when they set your interview appt, and the I-765 receipt number will show when they receive your app and when they have ordered production of the EAD card...dont even bother checking the I-130 receipt, from what I understand that won't change until you are approved at/after the interview.

I just check each morning...now that I saw they have ordered my EAD the only thing I check is the I-485 to see if there are and RFE's coming, which I am believing in faith that I won't get.

Good info for those who are still in the process. At this point, I'm just waiting for the green card in the mailbox, shouldn't be too long anymore
