Lol. I have now been here for 6 (!) months, jobless, not really doing anything except taking walks in the nearby park, because I'm trying to save what little money I have left. I see how for some people it could be hell, but I'm actually catching up on lots of reading :whistle:! If only someone was paying me for that...

Anyway, here's an AOS update from me and a quick question:
- AOS package sent May 1 to P.O. Box
- Package delivered May 4
- Received two e-mail notifications and two (?) receipt numbers a few hours ago (May 25) - FINALLY!

I see most people have received all three of the e-mail/text notifications at once, has any of you had a similar experience to mine? I know I'm probably just being paranoid, but this whole ordeal has taken so long and I'm getting very impatient <_<

Ohhh i feel him. Ive been 2 months here already without being able to work and i just wanna throw myself off the balcony lol. Im an extremely active/productive person and sitting all day doing nothing is driving me crazy. All i can do i go to the gym and come back home

It must be so hard to be in that situation! I feel really guilty leaving him when I go to work all day, because i know I'd be really bored. Alas, there isn't much to do and I try to make the weekends as exciting and action-packed as possible ^_^

Haha tbh, reading for pleasure all day sounds like a dream from someone who is working full time and taking uni classes at the same time.

Hi Everyone! I received my NOAs on 5/22 so waiting for the biometrics appointment and intend to do as many walk-ins as it takes to speed up the process. I also sent in a request to expedite my I0765 with my application so I will keep you updated. Sending positive vibes out to everyone here! xx

Wow, 6 months is a long time. 

i have read from a lot of posts on this forum where people have the same situation as yours, they eventually get NOAs for the remaining forms, so don't be paranoid, you'll get the rest soon.

Best of luck.

I too had the feeling that I've read about similar cases, but was unable to find them again, so thank you! Best of luck to you as well ;)

So sorry I haven't posted any further updates on our fiasco, but here is our latest update.

 

When we called USCIS way back on May 8th they told us that one of two things would happen after half our rejection packet was lost in the mail: 1- they would send another rejection notice and we can send the whole thing again at once. 2- they would accept the I-485 sent by itself and eventually send us an RFE for the rest of the information.

 

This morning 05/26/17 Jon finally got a ONE text and email for his AOS and nothing with regard to EAD or AP (which makes sense since we got this back 3 days later with no instructions on what to do). Now Jon is calling USCIS again today to see what we do... hopefully we don't have to file for them separately and pay the fees for those.... keep your fingers crossed for us.

 

At least his Green Card is being processed... I am just waiting for the inevitable RFE that at least we have everything ready to send back.

 

Pray for us please! ><
