Hi Visa Journey friends,

My husband and I sent his AOS (green card + temporary work permit) papers 2 weeks ago. We haven't gotten the e-notification yet, and I checked my bank account and I see that the government has yet to deposit the check for fees that we sent.

Is this normal? We know his case is difficult and we already know we're going to get an RFE because of vaccine papers. However, when should we expect to hear back? How can I find out if they received his packet?

Thanks everyone! Have an excellent weekend.

It can take up to 30 days for USCIS to send you a NOA 1 receipt though most people get it within a week. Give it a little time again. Regarding your medical evaluation, there's an option for you to bring at the interview if you didn't submit it originally.

USCIS does not actually cash your check. They will run your check like a debit card. You should see the payment clear your bank within a week of USCIS receiving your package. How much did you pay? If the payment is not correct they will send the package back to you. Did you get the civil surgeon to complete the medical. Hopefully you also sent the paperwork for AP as that is free. We just went through AOS two years ago and now in the process of ROC. Let me know if you have any questions.

God bless

Do you have signed confirmation of package delivery from USPS or your courier service?
