February 2018 AOS Filers

[Elena Ibrahim 59]

Hey everyone!!! Excited to join the thread.  We just sent our package today via UPS.  We were part of the April 2017 K-1 Filers thread.  Good to see some familiar faces here.  So here we go again.  Wish everyone the best of luck!!!

Sent out packet on February third and received receipt notice on 02/17/18 for AOS, EAD and AP. No request for evidence!

Looks like its taking about two months for the employment and travel permit. Not so long!

I think the VJ average is about 104 days from filing to approval for AP.

Good morning feb people. We mailed ours out last week USPS and it was delivered last Friday to Chicago. Now just waiting for the E notification and the noa.

Howdy friends! Sent out my husbands adjustment on Thursday. Hoping to get an NOA1 sooner rather than later 😭 I've been overthinking all the stuff we put in our application but I guess that won't matter now. Hoping for no rfe's! Let's get this ball rolling!

Hi friends. I have a quick question. Was wondering if anyone else was in the same boat? My husband had gotten his provisional license while his I-94 was still valid but now that it is expired how will we be able to go about his license? I called the DMV and they mentioned using the notice of receipt in Lieu of the I-94 however it appears that only allows you to have the license for so long? I'm confused. Any thoughts? 🤔

Good morning all. I hope feb filers are doing well and anxiety is under control. Question for the group. I mailed out the AOS, AP, EAD and the e notification documents along with the almighty check.  Mailed on the 7th via USPS. Tracking showed it arrived on the 9th. 

Checked with the bank today and check still hasn’t cashed. 

Anyone else in the same boat?

no email or text alert either. 

Starting to worry. Usually they were quick on getting the check cashed for the K1

Hi, I don't want to give you this as a definitive answer but here is my situation...

 

I currently have a full UK license from back home but unfortunately can only use that for 60 days in North Carolina. 

 

To obtain a NC drivers license I must present evidence/proof of current legal status. Since my I-94 is now expired I have NO proof of my legal status (DMV does not accept a NOA1 for AOS as evidence of legal presence in the US). 

 

For this reason I can't get a US drivers license until I receive my EAD. 

 

Yes, it sucks, but it's just one of the big black holes that you end up inside when you decide to go through this process

You are still within the expected time.....as far as I can see you sent everything on Feb 7, so I would relax and wait until end of the month before starting to worry. AOS applications have significantly increased its processing by USCIS which is why is taking a little longer for them to reply.

Our dates are pretty close to the same, sent on the 6th and arrived on the 7th.  Up until today we haven't received any information or notification but I just checked my email and USPS Informed Delivery is showing that we have 2 letters coming from USCIS today.  I'm guessing this is our NOA1 for the I-485 and the EAD.  So, I'm guessing you should be receiving something soon!

Yayyy. So hopefully I will get something this week. Is that USPS an app? I think I need it to keep me excited every day lol. Thanks

Ours was delivered on the 7th and the check was cashed on the 15th.  Since yours was received on a Friday, and there was a holiday yesterday, I'm guessing you will see the check cashed today or tomorrow.  I was surprised at how long it took them to cash the check in comparison to the K1; I feel like they received our K1 application one day and within 48 hours the check was cashed.
