Awaiting receipt numbers for I-485 filing of parents

[Vabsmith 47]

Hello I am a USC and filed for my parents AOS earlier this month and the packet was received by the USCIS on the 5th June as per fedex online tracking .

The fees checks are yet to be cashed and awaiting receipts in mail for these applications.

The parents have a valid B1 stamp till mid August but wondering/guessing if the USCIS is taking longer to send out receipts given shortage of staff.

What is a typical wait time to get receipts these days? Any suggestions if I should file for an extension of my parents B1 ?

7- 30 days.

You can’t file for extension of B status with AOS filed. I539 filing requires that “You are still a bona fide nonimmigrant”, which is clearly not true. Nor would you truthfully be able to provide “The reasons why your extended stay would be temporary, including what arrangements you have made to depart from the United States”.

Is the fedex tracking that shows the packets are received a good proof that I have filed for AOS? I want to make sure that I have something in hand to show that I have filed for AOS in case the wait to get the receipts is longer.
