Concurrent AOS (I-130 & I-485). I-130 check has been cashed, but I-485 hasn't yet. What could it be?

Hi Guys, I concurrently filed for AOS with the Forms I-130 and I-485.  USCIS received the package on August 1st.  They cashed the check for Form I-130 yesterday August 28th ($ 535 USD), but did not cash the I-485 & Biometrics check ($ 1225 USD).  Do you guys know if USCIS usually cashes first one check and then the other one?  Or do they use to cash both at the same time?  I want to stay positive and don't think that there is an error on the I-485 or other forms (I-131, I-765, I-864, and I-693).

Hi,

 

All I can say is that we were charged both fees the same day. 

Kind regards guys.

 

USCIS cashed the I-485 check today. Now, both checks (I-130 & I-485) have been cashed out. The former was cashed 28 days after filing; the latter, 32 days after filing. So yes, USCIS can cash checks on different days .

How long did it take for you? USCIS recieved my package on August 20th but still no news in my bank account (We send debit cards info, no checks).

It took around 20 days for our credit card to be charged.

USCIS cashed the I-130 check 28 days after filing, and the I-485&Biometrics check, 32 days after the date of filing.
