Ah! I was finally able to check on one of my cases on the website (the big one, aka I-485) and it says "Testing and interview". Hoping to get an interview letter in the mail soon ;)

I'm still unable to check the two other cases on the website OR on the phone, but I talked to a representative and they've referred my issue to an USCIS agent who will call me back with my case status in the next 48 hours... would be cool if the EAD gets there before then ;)

How did you get through to a live person on the phone? Do you still remember which options you chose on their menu? When I tried to call, I just ended up with an automated voice...

How did you get through to a live person on the phone? Do you still remember which options you chose on their menu? When I tried to call, I just ended up with an automated voice...

I went to "check case status" but instead of choosing 1 to enter my number (which hadn't work the first time), I chose the option that said "if you have issues or can't locate your number" and then basically listened to a whole lot of explanation about how to locate the number before choosing the option that said "to report a problem" and got to talk to someone.

They really really make it complicated to just talk to an actual person.
