I was reading a thread from a former processing officer. He explained that it is really stressful at the processing center. Some can pick up your documents and they are not a fast processor eapecially if it has a large amount of file , it will take them awhile to go through it. They give 30 - 45 days just for a large window. But so far as i am seeing on this site, they are working fast at the chicago lock box. Give them some time, if ur check hasnt been cashed they probably hasnt finished going through your documents. Be patient, I know its tough, we all will get through this. I check my onljne banking account everyday. It just got cashed today. Just wait and pray that the person who picked up ur docs will move faster.

What's there to lose patience for if you already have your EAD/AP?

Just received my Green Card today We didn't get called into an interview! My card is valid for 10 year though.... That has to be a mistake, right?

Lol, I feel your pain. Yea send the important and take the rest to the interview or they will ask for more info. They have to scan every doc and see if they are all signed. They do take breaks and set it aside so it really get real at the processing centers. Be patient if u signed up for email alert they will alert you.Try praying and ask God to let them speed it up.

Hello everyone,

How much time does it usually take to get a biometrics appointment letter?

My concurrent I-130/I-485 package was

- received at USCIS Chicago: April 4th

- Checks cashed & emails received: April 11th midnight

-Hard copy NOA received by mail : April 15th.

I was expecting my biometrics letter sometime this week - but I didn't. I'm a little worried. Should I be worried?

Hi you'll probably get something by this coming week. Don't worry. It takes a while to get the mail, depends on where you're living. :)

Hi,

USCIS office received my package April 1

Still did not get the appointment letter. I called the help line today and they told me they did not even send it yet.

For all of us waiting on the biometrics app: I haven't received it either. I got the texts on 04/12 so I think for some reason they are taking longer than what it seems to be the usual time frame.

Will keep updating :)

No way to check on case because they converted my check into an ACH transaction so i cant see my physical check online.

Do you guys happen to know when I can check my status online? I know it's too early and I should give it time but I'm just anxious. I already have my case no. but it still says not recognized. I received the sms and email notification yesterday.
