well wow, that is expensive...  when I sent the AOS package it cost me $14 to express it with FedEx...

I'd been expecting around $14, but I was horribly, horribly wrong. We probably should have sent it with FedEx but we were anxious to get it out and the post office is right down the street. That place has cost me way more than I expected every time I've gone in. I wouldn't be surprised if they know me as 'the girl who exclaims loudly when she's told the cost of sending something',haha.

I just found out that I can still apply for the Travel Document and wave the fee because my I-485 is still pending. 

 

Note: You do not need to pay an additional fee for Form I-131 if:

  • You are filing Form I-131 Application Type B or D;
  • You filed a Form I-485 with a fee on/after July 30, 2007; and
  • Your Form I-485 is still pending.

Has anybody tried this? Thanks for your replies :) I am still wondering if I should do it or not.

Am in the same position lol

Hi!

I haven't seen any approvals this week so far, it seems that either the USCIS staff is on vacation this week or our applications are in the limbo... I don't really know does their workflow processes work, but I've seen ppl that applied in December getting their approvals before ppl that applied in NOV.. 

I'm on 105 days and the last response I got from them was: Case under review...

Got my congresswomen involved.. let's see if it helps!

 

Thank you
