Hey everyone!

 

Another March filling couple here

 

This all process has giving me so anxiety, but reading this forum really helps. I want to thank everyone for all the positivety and good advice they share arround here.

 

We got our NOA1 on the 19th, now we just need to wait and hope that we don't get a RFE! There is still a long away ahead of us, but this first step made us even more sure we want to do this together!

 

Now I'm focusing on my next visit to the U.S. for my birthday next month 

 

Good luck to everyone!

 

Boa sorte para os muitos brasileiros que já vi por aqui em Março, vamos encher a América de feijoada e bacalhau

I’m  worried haven’t received NOA1 and sent my package in on March 16th,.. I tracked my package with USPS and they recieved it Mar 19 according to my tracking number.. I sent mine to Texas P.O. box lockbox as stated on USCIS website and I filled out the form to receive a notification ... still nothing

Did you include the form to get digital notification? I received the snail mail letter almost two weeks after being sent the notice of a NOA1 via email. Submitted on the 7th, email on the 12th.

No reason to be worried!

 

We submited ours on the 9th and got the text/email on the 19th, so you should be getting yours this week. 

It's weekend afterall, I seriously doubt beurocrats work on the weekend

I sent ours in on the 17th and it was received at the lockbox on the 19th also. No information yet and I did include the G-1145 to get notified via text and email. It looks like many are taking 7 to 10 days lately. Maybe we'll both hear something on Monday though.

I sent the package along with the g-1145 page ... Hopefully I’ll hear something soon !

Hmm, seems like they got a bit slower. My application arrived at the lockbox on March 1st and I received a notification and case number by text on March 6th.

 

Did y'all send in a paper check for the payment? A lot of VJers say to send in a paper check so you can watch when it clears, which is a good indication that they accepted your application.

Yeah, that's true, they cleared our check a few days before we got the notification.

I sent a personal check as my payment and it is showing up on my statement as posted now on the 26th.

That's great! That should mean you'll hear something soon! Still kind of worrying tho that it's taking them that long just for this stage.....hopefully it's just a temporary hiccup, or maybe they just suddenly received a flood of applications.

I've read somewhere that they receive an influx of H1-B visas in the spring but I wasn't able to confirm that or if it slowed down the process for the season. Anyone have insight into that?

Just got the text and email!
