December 2015 AOS filer status

[TrufflePiggy 3]

Just checked our case status online.... they mailed us an RFE yesterday don't even know what it could possibly be

Damn! I'm really sorry to hear you got an RFE.

Did your status just recently change to RFE?

I've had biometrics done Jan 07, but my status just says:

"On December 7, 2015, we received your Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or to Adjust Status, Receipt Number MSC1690301278, and sent you the receipt notice that describes how we will process your case. Please follow the instructions in the notice. If you do not receive your receipt notice by January 6, 2016, please call Customer Service at 1-800-375-5283. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address."

Did yours say that before as well?

Ick- sorry and fingers crossed its something easy to fix- hard I know, when you are struggling to think what it could be about. I guess we have hit the timeframe for RFE's so if it's any consolation you might have some company over the coming days/weeks.

My husband and I just overnighted the RFE response back yesterday so they got it today. They wanted proof that I was a US Citizen (apparently they must have lost the certified copies of the birth certificates that we included for me). I also included with the RFE a copy of my passport Bio page per their request. They sent the RFE to my husband (the beneficiary - AOS immigrant).

Biometrics done!

Our NoA1date is Dec 22 as well. similarly, we are not able to track our case online either.

We called the USCIS yesterday. Their response was simply :

Wait 30 days for appointment letter

Wait 45 days for "case status check".

Whaaat :-(

at least we are not alone... I guess the only thing what we can do is waiting...and eating chocolate :-/

Because sometimes it looks like everyone is moving forward except us :-(

Just joined to share in my (or, rather, our) AOS experience. So far so good. Biometrics were done last week down at the Salinas, CA application support center. I was the only person there - the staff looked so bored!

Hoping that, as time passes, the chances of being RFEd diminish? O.o

Good luck ?

We are still not able to track our case no# online.

Our case numbers are FINALLY showing on USCIS. It is just a little glimmer of hope, but maybe our biometric letter will be coming soon?

Still have not received our biometrics appointment letter. It is going on 3 weeks since we got our NOA for AOS. Are other people still waiting for letters? It seems that some people get them so fast! I'm getting nervous!

Yep, some are still waiting. I believe they try to get the biometrics scheduled within 30 days, so you're wait may be close to the end.

My case status acknowledges the cases were received on December 10th, so we are 36 days away from that, but our NOA dates are 24 days. If I find time today, we may go ahead and call to ask about our appointment.

@ Amhara: yay! it is always nice to know they actually put your case in the system, isnt it?

@marroco: and you are sure it doesnt say anything about a bio appt on you NOA? That is what happened to me. Checked the mailbox every day and the NOA had it on it all along and I never registered it.

I really suggest you do this! I was so surprised at your situation, but our letter specifically said that our NOA was not a biometric letter. Marroco, definitely check!!

On the bottom of my biometrics appointment letter there is a telephone number 1-800-375-5283. Perhaps you could try calling that to see if an appointment has been scheduled. Your letter may well have gone adrift in the mail.
