Im not sure. We didnt have a priority date listed on ours so we just put N/A

Tracking says our package is in Chicago! Woot!

 

All this waiting for his SSN card to come, and it finally comes 2 days after we sent it off! 😆

It’s Your Priority Date.. usually a day or two after they received the original petition at USCIS

 

 it applies to the order of which the DOS/NVC process your visa’s / GC applications and is relevant to all categories other than immediate relative of USC. 

 

E.g. spouse of USC dosent need to wait inline for a visa to be made available, however the spouse of a LPR does because they only permit entry of so many people per year.

Yeah, its an application for Immediate Relative of USA.

Basically, once their petition is approved, they need to wait for the PD to become current before they can adjust or apply for the immigration benefit

Not yet, and I'm getting anxious. Haven't even received case number yet.

I would not expect to get anything about biometrics with the current state of things and closures.

I'm starting to get anxious as we creep up to the two week mark from sending our package in for the second time.  I know that @PECS posted here about sending on 3/19 and getting notification on 3/25.  We sent 3/21, it arrived on 3/24 (Tues) and last time ours arrived on a Monday and we got the rejected package back on the following Friday (just under two weeks later).  We are creeping up to that point now, I'm so nervous to get rejected again! I keep checking my bank account dying to see that check pulled out! Anyone else who sent last week hear any news yet?

Nothing from us we sent it last Monday or Tuesday and no checks cashed yet. Hoping for this week for some news.

I haven't heard anything yet either. Package arrived in Chicago on 3/25. I'm getting worried too, but hoping that they are just short-staffed due to covid-19!
