Filed my I130 + I485 packet on 12/22, still no email confirmation and checks haven't been processed--getting worried!

Yes you can concurrent file formanager I130, I485 but I'll also suggest you also include in that same package forms I864, I693, I765, I131 to avoid RFIE and also the G1145 form for E-notification. (If you're  Married to a USC!)

What's RFIE? My son is 15. Do you know if can he apply for citizenship after this?

 

thank you Venice. Yes,  he is 15 years old and he entries with a tourist visa. And my husband is USC but is not his father. Do you know if does he can change his last name? Because he wants to have my husband's last name.

I'm not sure about the process of changing his last name. Are you a USC?  If not and you're a green card holder. You son isn't eligibility to file concurrently... A visa number isn't readily available for spouse or children of a LPR. You can only file I130 and wait until is priority date becomes current before filing I485(Adjustment of status) he should leave the country until his priority date become available to avoid penalty. And as he is under the age of 18 you're not required to file I765 (EAD/Work peemit)for him.

Yes, and my husband is USC

Hey all, it's Friday and I still have heard NOTHING. Is there a number I should call? I'm kicking myself for not getting a delivery confirmation.

Bumping again, still haven't received any notice and the checks still haven't been cashed.

No, but I called the USCIS the other day and they said to give it 30-45 days as the standard processing time and wouldn't even check for me until it's been more than 45 days past the date I mailed it.
