I would recommend waiting a little bit... my case is similar to yours but I finally found out that they completely overlooked my form I765. I filed it the first week of August (3.8.17) and talked twice to the customer service agents about some mistakes they made (my misspelled name and the i765 omission, meaning that I never got any receipt notice for that form). I still need to wait some days for the email reply though (lockbox email) before filing a second i765. If they haven't answered by Monday I'll just re file that form again with all the other receipt copies. Just done with the biometrics today and the persons working there told me I may need to come back again (2 hours drive) for the other form. Although the customer service agent told me that sometimes they just take the fingerprints from the ones already done. Hopefully this just makes everything faster as I am in constant communication with UsCis because of these two mistakes  from their end. Lol. What you can also do and I did (and the agent did I think) is to look online your case number and add 1 number prior or after yours and see if maybe it's your same case, that's if you are already able to check it online. 

 

Hope this helps  we are all together in this 💖

 

Have a great day!!

Wow! That's overwhelming! Thank you for sharing your situation! The case number before mine is an I-130 and the one after me is another 485. That sucks... I might try to call them and see if they can tell me if they received the other ones or not.

 

Good luck to you, hope its moving fast now!

That sounded like a lot of work. I hope you get that settled soon.

 

I am in a similar situation. I received only one NOA letter for I-130 (USC husband), no NOA so far for my I-485 and I-131. But I received emails and texts about acceptance of all three forms and I was able to check my case online since earlier this week. I decided to wait a bit and the USCIS Check my case online tool says I should wait until Sep 22 if I have not received my letter in the mail

I received the biometric letter today in the mail.

 

The appointment was for Sep 18 but I dropped in today itself for a successful walk in.

 

I had to explain why I showed up early to the center manager and he accepted my request.

 

It only took 10 minutes. As soon as I left the office I submitted a SR to expedite my EAD.

Great congrats, so you do the biometric today instead on sep 18? Is it possible to do it earlier than the schedule? What is SR? I'm still on vacation.. :/

I completed my biometrics early. I tried to explain why I was early but they just cut me off saying they know we're early since there's no one scheduled today (weird) They didn't want to hear my reason and were happy to process me regardless. It took 10 minutes for my wife and I. It took a lot longer to make the round trip in traffic. Glad it's over with.

Yes I did it today instead of the 18. Walk ins are possible in some locations but usually are frowned upon. 

SR is a service request, basically it is calling USCIS and submit a request, mine was asking them to expedite my EAD based on a job offer.

hey!! i just found out about this topic here, i was following the OTHER august aos filers thread and was wondering why it was so quiet there.

 

So i got ONE text and email about my case earlier this week and today i got the NOA in the mail. However, i only got ONE, thats for the I-485. I am still waiting to get case numbers and NOA for the EA and AP. Did anyone else get their notifications on different dates or should i be worried?

Hi, try and call them on Monday to find out what is happening. I know a case of someone who had to call them before he got all his NOAs and biometric appointment. Meanwhile, they claimed they mailed them out and USPS didnt deliver any to him. Just try and call them to find out.

I just told them that I needed to expedite my EAD and that I couldn't do so before getting my biometrics taken.

Thanks. I should start working by Oct 2nd. So it's kind of a race lol. the walk-in I saved me 10 days.

Hopefully everything will be smooth for me, you and for everyone else here.
