Hey! I’ve been somewhat of a silent reader here and thought I’d share my experience, in case it might help anyone in any way.    I filed for an AOS in January, after arriving to US & get

Did you get text notifications?

Not yet. Should be any day now. I’d say after check cashed/CC charged, should be no more than a week.

Hi all. I'm not a January filer, getting ready to file any day now, however I am trying to time my application right. I will be out of town from March 5 to March 13, so I'm trying to plan mailing the AOS package in a way that doesn't schedule the biometrics during that period. I'm curious to see those of you who filed late in January what appointment dates did you get for your biometrics?

Hi, my NOA1 date — Jan 10, biometric appointment was scheduled for Jan 29.

 

I received text 3 messages / emails on Jan 12 at 12:30 am; letters with NOA1 on Jan 18 and biometric appointment letter on Jan 19.

Did you guys attached wedding photos in the I-485 Adjustment of Status packet?

Didn't add anything that wasn't in the guide, or asked for by USCIS. Nothing is needed at this stage, they'll ask for evidence when you'll have interview set up. Similarly to N400.
Mine was I485, I131, I765, Affidavit of support, and supporting paperwork for each form.

 

Received at midnight 3 text's from USCIS, Cases received Jan 31st, I485 Fingerprint fee was received 02.04.

Now - The waiting game lol

I did too, it wouldn't hurt anyway 

 

But from what I understand if you attach enough evidence they might waive the interview. It does happen but rarely 

Yep. I included our wedding pictures too as the evidence of marrying USC within 90 days to supplement the copy our wedding certificate. Just like our K1 visa application, I frontloaded our I-485. I also included the evidence of bonafide marriage such as joint bank account, lease agreement and utility bills. The list of document I sent can be found in this thread. If they waive the interview it's good, but if they don't,  we will come to the interview with more evidence because we would be married for quite some times by then
