Hopefully you will hear good news soon. For the sake of clarity: You sent your AOS forms to the Chicago Lockbox location. That is just a collection point, the forms are then forwarded to the Natio

I still haven't received any text/email... My package was delivered to the Chicago Lockbox on Friday... I'm a little apprehensive because I read about having to have bar codes on the forms and mine didn't have any bar codes (I downloaded them from the uscis website). So I keep thinking they will return my whole package. Hopefully I will receive a txt soon and will be able to breathe again!!

Hope you already have received text or will receive it soon. If you haven't don't worry much timelines might differ a bit sometimes even if people has filed the papers on same day. Good Luck and take care.

There isn't no need to worry about the barcodes, we didn't have them on our forms and it was just fine. I know being patient is difficult, but we got no other option...expect it by this Friday or early next week. The dates on the acceptance are for the next day from the date they received the application, so no time is being wasted. Hope this helps.

Good Luck!

Hiya American To Be, Thanks and good luck to you too as well.

Keep Updated.

Will do for sure. in your case, husband is USC or wife?

My wife is USC applying for me?
