We received your case

You do not need to do anything at this time

We will begin processing your case and will review it to make sure you have submitted all of the required information and documents. We will let you know if we need anything else from you.

"If you do not receive your notice by March 29, 2018, send us a case inquiry and select that you did not receive your notice by mail.  "

HI folks !  Anybody has an idea what this notice will be about? 

Sept 2017 filer here .CSC

So, they actually aren't redundant.  I just spent my lunchbreak going through the different sites.  

 

The Case Status Online Site (https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do) is just that: a case status tracker, which is all we were able to do online until recently at all.

 

The USCIS MyAccount Site (https://myaccount.uscis.dhs.gov/) is a much broader platform.  It allows you to pay fees, change your address, and even file some forms online, including the N-400.  Right now it is limited to only a few forms (https://www.uscis.gov/file-online), but they will be helpful for a lot of us in this forum.

 

My personal assumption is that they will eventually move to mostly online filing.  It makes no sense to have us save pdfs of our bank statements, etc, print them out, and send them to USCIS, only to have them spend a ton of time scanning them in.  We could have just send them one giant pdf to make everyone's lives easier.  However, I use eventually in the very long term sense of the word here, because when has USCIS ever chosen to do something that would make sense or make everyone's lives easier?

 

Anyhow, there are definitely differences in the information received from both websites.

 

For the I-751 Receipt Number from the NOA I have:

From the Case Tracker Site - The notice about the case being received at my local office on February 27 and the case history showing the request I sent for a non-received notice.

On the USCIS MyAccount Site - The notice about them receiving my case on December 14th and my fee being waived (which it is not - known glitch, but I thought it useful to specify that I have not actually used a fee waiver), the same update for February 25th and February 27th.  No mention of the request I submitted.

 

For the CRI-89 Biometrics Receipt Number I have:

From the Case Tracker Site - The your case was received December 14th standard message.  That'a all.

On the USCIS MyAccount Site - The notice about them receiving my case on December 16th (new date...) and my fee being waived and no further updates.  Oddly, the case information bar at the top says it was submitted December 15th, though all of the other sites and tracking numbers say the 14th; only this one lists the 15th and 16th.

 

I am seriously starting to think they do this for fun to brighten up what must be very boring jobs...

Thanks for the new website. I'm using it and adding my cases to it. But it kinda make no sense on my receipt number history, I have THREE "your case was received" and "If you do not received by 25, 28,29 March" lol...

I'm so confused haha

I decided to give another try and I called USCIS during my lunch. The Tier 2 lady confirmed that my case is at the local office but she wasn't aware of what is going on. She seemed to be very sincere and really wanted to help. She mentioned that she received tons of similar calls but no one in her office is informed of anything. She thinks that there might be another update in the next 2 weeks but it's only her guessing. When I asked her if this can indicate an interview she said that interviews are rare. RFE's are happening more often and one of the reason they send them, they want to have an updated status on the ongoing marriage.

That would be a bit of an issue if they want an updated dossier of marriage evidence, considering all of us have been waiting about a year and a half at this point

 

Edit: Not all of us, I somehow got confused and thought this was the Sept 2016 filers' thread.

My wife got this message "On March 5, 2018, we received your Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence, Receipt Number (Redacted), at your local office. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

 

We filed Nov of 2016 so it seems like their just transferring to local offices to reduce the workload.

 

If anyone wants to text me about this feel free at six five one - three one seven - three four five one, would love to chat about this and figure this out, also if you got a approved message after this, let me know as well.

On the expanded desktop version for the new web site "... dhs.gov", the case status tab for I-751 says this:

 

"February 26, 2018

But if I  click on the tab f case history, I see what's in the picture I posted.

 

The case status for the CRI 89 looks much like the last entry undercase history for I 751.

 

As stumped as you all, hoping that something's going to show up by the end of this month.  ( sorry, the pictures posted in the wrong order.)

I can't believe how confusing they make all this for us. I am going to check with the senators office tomorrow if I get a chance about this.

Oh wow that's something new!

 

Anyway its kinda funny after reading so many "YOU DO NOT NEED TO DO ANYTHING AT THIS TIME" lol it feels like, OK I GET IT!!!!!!!! GRRRRRR 

[samku06 10]

So here is the next question, which timeline do I follow?

 

Before I used to go check the processing times for the California Service Center where my paperwork was originally sent too, however there is no page to go check the processing times of the local office.
