I got a hard copy of my NOA today as well. Well, USCIS is closed for all in-person services until June 4th so I'm not hoping to get my biometrics scheduled anytime soon.

Same here, not expecting a biometrics appointment anytime soon. For some reason that still doesn't stop me from logging into my USCIS account once every weekday to see if there's a new update. I'm normal like that.

someone can please explain following ...estimated wait time??

Personally, I wouldn't bother about that estimated wait time. Based on what it says above it, I think it might be the time that they need to review what you've submitted in order to determine if they need any additional documents from you or if any info is missing. On another hand, it might mean that they will schedule your biometrics within 15 days but I highly doubt that. As of today, mine says 5 days so I guess we will see what happens in 5 days 🤷‍♀️

I am eligible to file on the 16th based on the 3 year rule. My I-751 is still pending. On the application I had to upload required evidence (Permanent resident card, marriage certificate, 3 years of tax returns and evidence of children) which I uploaded. Then there is an additional evidence section.

 

My questions is, what do I need to upload? Is this basically the same proof/evidence of a bonafide marriage I would of sent in with the I-751 but updated? Pictures, shared assets, ID's, bills, never ending list lol etc..

 

Thanks!

That's what I did, yes. I uploaded a big chunk of what I had already sent for ROC (not all of it) and then everything I could think of from the date I filed the ROC up until filing the N-400, as that would be all new evidence.

Same here! I-751 is still in process. Applied for N-400 anyway. We're entitled to do so anyway, right?

 

Us, too! Online status for I-751 changed to "interview ready to be scheduled" on Wednesday, but with the current USCIS field office closures, it's hard to say when that will happen. Still, better to get the process started for N-400--maybe they'll be adjudicated at the same time, as has happened for others.
