AOS March 2016 Filers

[mamu 3]

Sent ours the 15, still nothing

Just called USCIS and they told me to wait for 10 business days since delivery. We can give them a call if haven't heard back from them by that timeline. Hope it helps.

Bio Appointment was very simple, now time for more waiting

If it would ease any of your minds, I sent my packet off on Feb 25th and didn't receive the NOA1 hard copies in the mail until March 11th. I didn't panic until I saw people that filed same day as I did received their notices before me. No one knows how they operate for sure but u will receive yours soon. Ps ..the level one officers don't always give accurate information. For all we kno, your notice might have been mailed. I called on Friday to inquire about biometrics and they told me nothing has been scheduled and 2 hrs later my husband found the biometrics letter in the mail

I filed i485,EAD and AP concurrently and received 3 receipts. However, I can only track EAD online while the other two receipt numbers couldn't found on USCIS website and I received a FP appointment letter only for EAD today. Is it normal to have separate FP with concurrent filing? I am afraid they might miss the other two:(((....thanks for opinions in advance.

Toby123, I'm in the same position as you. I filed i-485, EAD and AP together and also received 3 receipts. But, I can't track EAD online and my biometric appointment is only for the i-485. I have called USCIS twice and all they told me was to wait 45 days from the receipt date and call back if I still can't tack my EAD electronically.

For the biometric appointment, I was told to take all my receipt notices to the appointment and explain that I filed all 3 forms concurrently but only got a biometics for my i-485 and not my EAD and AP applications. When I asked if there was a possibility that I would have to do a separate biometric appointment for EAD/AP, the person I spoke to said he didn't think so but the ASC would be the one to tell me (so not reassuring). Especially since my service center is more than an hour away from we live and my husband has to take time off of work to take me.

I am getting quite frustrated by all of this .

Good to know,

I also did my biometrics there last October, there were only about 5 people inside. We will also probably try an early walk in for his appointment, hopefully we'll get his letter by Friday.

Please let me know if his walk in works.

My husband tried when they first opened this morning, and they told him that they had to keep the schedule and sent him away. I realized that last time that we walked in early and got accepted, we did it later in the day when they knew that they were on schedule, and today, he was waiting when they opened and they didn't know how their day was looking yet.

That's very nice you share this information to me. I will probably do an early walk in these day and let me share my experience in the ASC.

I totally understand how frustrating it is. Lets cheer up each other.

Good luck doing the the walk-in. I'm eager to hear how it goes. Hopefully, everything will be resolved for us soon.

now knowing that your hubby's early walk in was unsuccessful, he'll probably opt to wait for his scheduled appointment haha..we'll see

Hi,can you tell me what is: "Cover letter from USC Spouse" ?

For mine it's pretty much each extra item I put pertaining to the affidavit that is not in the main table of content and have my husband USC sign it to be official
