AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I´m freaking outtttt!!! I chatted with USCIS today because it has been a month since we filed and they told me that our case has been received and the receipt notice was mailed on 10/22/2020 (weird cause I never got any texts). Anyway, my I-20 expires in 5 days so this news brings an enormous relief.

After asking me a security question they gave me the receipt number which starts with "MSC". Does somebody know what can I do with that info?

MSC means your case is being processed by the National Benefits Center in Missouri. I think most of us in this thread have case numbers starting with MSC . Since your NOAs were mailed on 10/22 you should get them in the next couple of days. Check to see if your spouse got any texts or not. I might be wrong, but I think whatever phone number you mentioned in the G1145 form is the one where the text messages will be sent to.  

RoC Timeline:

  1. 12/04/2023 - Application sent to USCIS Elgin, IL lockbox
  2. 12/07/2023 - Application received by USCIS
  3. 12/12/2023 - Received "Your case received" text message from USCIS. Receiipt # starts with IOE
  4. 12/13/2023 - Check cashed by USCIS
  5. 12/19/2023 - Received in mail the I797 with the receipt number and the online access code
  6. 12/19/2023 - Received in mail the bio-metric re-use notification
  7. 12/21/2023 - Received in mail the I797 NoA extending my green card by 48 months

Yeah, she didn´t get any texts either. I tried using the USCIS tracker to check on the receipt number but it says that it doesn´t exist.

 

I´m going to play the How does the USCIS work game here and say that maybe the system hasn´t been updated and that´s the reason behind the no texts and no tracking available. Will probably just take a little bit of time, like everything else 😋

Update: I just received my entire application back with rejection - reason: outdated version of the I-485 form.

I'm super confused because it says up top "expires 07/31/2021" what am I missing here?

And I wonder if my fee is now changing. They added a copy of my enveloppe with the date of the shipping so not sure. I'll keep you updated once I talk to an agent.

Under H1B valid until September 2022.

The current I-485 form is the 10/15/19 form (ignore the expiry at the top and check the date on the bottom left of the form). See the edition date section at this link: https://www.uscis.gov/i-485

Just found it last night, now it expires on October 31th but I reprinted that form, sending the application back today.

I’m nervous because the agent kinda moved things around, and proofs, can’t even find all of my wedding certificate I had in there and not sure if I should be touching anything they did. Probably not. So I’m just going to re-add evidences that I had in the first version and pretend I didn’t see that they stapled all of my evidences in my I-130. Nerve wrecking! Hope this time will be the good one.

Got my NOAs today, 5 days after my checks were cashed. My priority date is September 25, 2020.

 

1. 9/25/2020 - Application sent to USCIS Chicago lockbox

2. 9/26/2020 - Delivered

3. 10/26/2020 - Checks cashed

4. 10/27/2020 - Received texts with receipts

5. 10/30/2020 - Received 4 NOA's. Priority date is September 25, 2020.

 

One odd thing, when I go to check on my case status the receipt doesn't work and it says its invalid. I assume this is just the system not being updated? Anyone else have this issue?

I came across the same issue. But it was updated after a couple of days. You should be good.
