January 2018 AOS Marriage based Timeline tracker

[Nouchigang 200]

Hello,

 

I did not see a thread for January 2018 filers so I thought I would create one.

Priority Date: January 8th 2018

 

We sent I-130, i-485 package with affidavit (i-864) and i-765.

 

Waiting anxiously and checking the mail every day for a receipt or something.

I came with a tourist visa and we have been married since July 2017, based in Maryland.

 

Good luck to us all, God bless

date mistake

Hi there! Same here, but we got married on August, we are in Georgia but we’ll be moving to Maryland around March!

 

I sent my AOS package on December 30th so my priority date is January 2nd.

 

I got the text messages and the email receipts for the three forms on January 10th and yesterday we got the NOA for the 130 and 485, I guess I should get the one for the 765 today. I am checking my status everyday but nothing so far, I’m so anxious!!! I keep checking the threads for November and December, they keep

my hopes up because they’re going so fast!!!

[Nouchigang 200]

Good, thank you for letting me know I will take a look at the November and December timeline to get an idea, since we are about 1 week apart I should get the NOA next week then.

 

I will keep you posted.

 

Cheers

I will keep you posted also, I think that my timeline is going to be affected when we move but it’s for the better.

 

From what I’ve read, we should get the Biometrics letter in three weeks and the biometrics appointment should be one week after that.

And people are getting approved for the EAD three months after applying so it’s really looking good!

[Nouchigang 200]

3 months is good I like that!!!

 

Yeah most likely your move may affect the process, hoping you get the EAD before that so that we can work and keep yourself busy in the mean time!

 

Take care

Today I noticed I had several warnings in my USCIS app, saying that my fingerprints fee and my case were received!

I have an iPhone but I’m pretty sure this is the same app:  https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spinachsoftware.immigration.uscis.casestatus&hl=en

 

It’s pretty easy to use, hopefully they updated your cases yesterday too!

Thank you so much for the app I downloaded it!

Good news I saw that they cashed the checks for the I-130 and i-485 Yayyyy! It means they accepted the applications right?

Did you ever receive a notice or something for your i-765/EAD? I hope everything was fine with it. Any news for your biometrics?

Have a great weekend

I think that they either send you the receipt notice or a rejection letter, I guess they wouldn’t cash the checks if they reject the applications but who knows with this country! (just kidding)

 

So I got the NOA I was missing (yay!) and I also got today (we just moved out so I put the mail on hold for several days) the appointment for the biometrics, which is February 2nd, one month exactly since I applied! So you should get yours soon too!!

 

I hope you have a great weekend too!!

LOL you scared me for a second.

 

Yayy Congrats for your biometric, I read on other posts that you can actually walk in before the date they assigned you in the USCIS near you and if they are not busy they can do the biometrics on the spot, so check into it. Saving a few days or week always helps, especially since you are moving during your process

Actually I was thinking on going like one or two hours sooner to try to make it back on time to pick up my husband from work, I didn’t think I could save some time but I’ll call this week and ask, I’m not sure that without having a “legitimate” reason it would work but there’s only one way to know!

Lol, I know, it’s hard specially when your patience is less than zero!!

 

But you’ll see in less than a week everything will start to fall into place and you’ll receive your NOAs and then your biometrics appointment and everything will work out fine!

At least we have each other, not to comfort ourealces but to follow timelines 😜
