@NICK & PAULA, @emekus94

Sad it's not an approval. 

RFE....But super easy.

They only want 1 photo of each of us. 

Crazy... i sent 2 of each with petition.

 

Either way... is what it is.

 

Is it possible for Marian to send to me digitally?

Anyone done this before?

If its possible,I could have them there on Monday.

Hold up.
They want PASSPORT photo?
Or regular photo to prove you met in person?

If passport photo, I recall someone in the other threads saying their fiance sent it to them digitally and they just printed it and made sure it's the correct size. I ask because usually the issue with passport photos tend to be the BACKGROUND. Make sure it's off white and clear. That can be hard when all these phones and scanners are adding their own colors all over the place. Lol

if it's any regular photo, just grab one off ur phone and print! 
wishing you a quick turnaround my friend!

how do you tell which case is yours?

When you got your NOA1 back in August, they told you your case number on the notice. It starts with WAC and then some numbers after.
That's how to check up on your case.

Use that Number, WACXXXXXXX and see what the status is on your case. U also have the option on the app to scan up to 500 cases so u can see what the status on other cases around your case looks like.

Passport photos... 1 of each of us.

Just think its odd this is what they are asking for. I heard people having problems with passport photos before.

So i sent 2 separate sets in plastic bags.

Well unfortunately we know fromm prior months that USCIS seems to be fulfilling an RFE quota.
Half the people getting RFEs are actually for things already sent- not necessarily someone being careless like some people think. 

It sucks that they're stalling people's lives like this. But it's an easy fix for you so that's good.

Fellow Augustines!!
I have news!!

For those still waiting:
@Vholde346 @streanor @dpcalbears @Lizzard @AbSa @AndyAspen @anna lucia @Pedro0319
and anyone else I missed...

I learned today that USCIS has made updates. Everybody re-check your status!
Apparently many people today are finding out their case status's after months in suspense.

 

Instead of using https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do

can you please try to sign up an account at https://myaccount.uscis.dhs.gov/ and create your account. They seem to have changed where they're updating the cases. This would explain why there have been so many "silent NOA2s" in the passed few months.

thanks I hadn't used the mobile app before. This has been a long waiting process for sure. I never would have imagined going through this. i I know it will be worth it in the end. The case above mine has been approved and I had filed for case being outside of processing times online and received in the mail today the letter saying it was being adjudicated and I should receive a notice in 45 days which I think may be a standard response.

Thanks for the heads up!! I made an account and checked it with my breath held but it's still 'Received'. Damnit this wait is taking it's toll...

Ok... so for those who haven't logged into the new website.

 

Create another account and login.

 

After I just did that, now I see the updates to mycase.

Clearly says now that they sent an rfe on the 12th and that's what's waiting for me at my house.

When you posted that picture of the letter I had a feeling it was a rfe as it didn't look like my noa2 letter, noa2 would clearly show 1 of 1 in the window.

Passport photos for the embassy,  I heard white background and read off white background? which is it? I may just tell her bring 5 of each (white and off white) in case they ask.

i just created a new account and the case now shows a different date then my original NOA1 does. My NOA shows a recieved date of 8/31/17 and a notice date of 9/5/17.  The myuscis status page shows a submitted date of 9/6/17 with a 9/5/17 received date.

Thanks, @emekus94 !   I just received an email right now confirming that our petition was approved!!  Do we just wait now for NVC receipt confirmation? I'm guessing I should be contacting them to check within a few days?
