That's why they don't have time to process Green Cards! They are too busy texting!

They're likely referring to the scaremongering statement from the USCIS union last year. It simply referred to the plan to expand eligibility for interview waiver cases. I highly doubt there's any way

Natonstan, get proof of posting if you can. Oh and forgive me if I'm teaching my grandmother to suck eggs. :-)

Don't worry Derwood, I was planning on getting tracking on it so I at least knew it got there, like I said my 120 day window starts on Wednesday, do you think if USCIS received the EAD renewal 1 day before the 120 day window they'd keep hold of it until the next day or would they send it back... who am I kidding of course they'd send it back!

We mailed out renewal on Feb 12th and have not received anything back yet.. How long as it taken you guys to get a response for the EAD renewal???

I sent mine on the 6th of Feb, received the texts/emails on the 13th for an NOA date of the 10th. I don't think I got the hard copy NOA until the 20th.

Your noa1 for AOS is around a week before mine, but I didn't get my waiver letter until December a full three months later!

At least they are consistent, consistent with being totally inconsistent! Imagine if the USCIS was a restaurant ..... Nope best not to don't want nightmares tonight!

Hi Shell, I was able to find my original waiver letter. Turns out it was November 12, 2014 instead of September 2014 and I just updated my timeline. Looks like our time lines really are quite similar. Good luck to both of us!

That makes more sense to me. Our timelines are almost identical. Married the same day, AOS within a couple days, NOA1 on the same day, and NPIW on the same day. Hopefully, we'll both get GC's SOON! But I foresee late July, into August, 2015.

The latest word was that DHS received one week of stop-gap funding. We'll see what the next few days will bring on the political front. Nevertheless, there may be only limited cause for alarm, as the functions providing AOS/EAD/AP are supposed to be self funding. However, underlying support services may fall under the congressional budget, so I imagine anything can happen.

Good morning Beeps,

Well it's that Monday morning feeling, the beginning of the month feeling and remember everyone you are one month nearer to getting that elusive GC.

I'm sure some of the old timers here will be getting their GC's this week and Guiseppe, that was hilarious, perhaps they just like to say fingerprint fee has been received?!?!

Good luck everyone for the week ahead may the approvals roll in!

Removal of Conditions..  TICK TOCK, TICK TOCK

 

Time to reset the tick tock clock again.   Roll my eyes.

 

GC  Conditional date:  05/26/2015

Good morning Shell, I always had a good feeling about March, if I remember right I was saying March would be the month since the new year rolled in so fingers crossed as always, it'll be interesting to see how the processing times change in a week or so

Yes it will be interesting to see the new processing times, not they mean a thing if we don't know where our cases are and they don't mean anything if they haven't bothered sending our files! I think I said you would get approval tomorrow and you have put later this month, may the competition begin! lol

Wish this damn snow would go, we don't have the light fluffy stuff today, we have the heavy wet stuff that we have at home and I hate it!!

Texas is all clear today so hopefully those Dallas workers might get their asses in gear, although that one person that mentioned a few days back said they have their local office abbreviation at the end of service requests and then they got the RFE from somewhere else so who knows if I'm even at Dallas, it's more likely that I'm not
