Update to the October crowd, I'm a WAC219-er late Sept filer (Sep 28) and just got my RFE update on Friday. We'll see when I get the mail telling me what I need to do. Looks like y'all should be up soon.

Here's the round-up from the last week. I realized I missed 36 cases from the last manual data pull, and those have now been added. I also added a column to the far right to indicate how much change we've seen in Pending cases from the last time I pulled the data. Negative numbers are good because it means USICIS is working through that batch!

 

We're definitely seeing some movement now in the beginning of the month, but those are mostly RFEs. Let's hope we start to see some real progress this coming week!

Hi Everyone,

 

Hope you all are doing good and at least coping better than me in regards with waiting for an update from the USCIS.

I am new to this group and reading the comments on here made me feel a little bit hopeful.

Do you guys think that the October filers have a good chance to receive feedback during May 2021?

 

I also have a question regarding the receipt date. Our application was filed on the 30th of October 2020 but and received an online reciept notice with our case number, but the USCIS only received our documents physically on 25 January 2021.

I am however confused as to which date the USCIS will honor in order for us to know if we are 6 months into the process or only 3 months. I hope that someone would be able to put my mind at ease on this situation.

 

Thank you.

Of course! Together, the columns represent the range of NOA1 dates from that batch of 500. For example, from 2500-2999, the receipt dates are between Sep 30-Oct 1. Normally, the range is quite small, but as you get later in the month, you can see a big variety. This is when the lockbox NOA1 delays really began, and the data begins to look weird.

Thank you.

What date did they put on your NOA-1? It should have been backdated to when they received the case...probably sometime in November? Also you are 6 months into the process.

I am not sure :(as I am the beneficiary and our Attorney does not respond to my emails only that he will get back to me when the time comes, very frustrating situation, because I would like to get as much paperwork ready on my side except for the medical exam and police clearance, but hearing that we are 6 months in the process feels like a relief, thank you very much. 

 

I will try and find out what the backdated date is on our NOA1, since we are 6 months in would we be able to follow up on our case once the 10/30/2020 is before the receipt date for case inquiry or will that be where the date comes to play on our NOA1?

Just small advice, you need to remind the attorney that they work for you, not the other way around. I don't mean to sound harsh, it's only that I've seen this situation before. Main thing is to be on top them. Best of luck to you and your fiance 🙌

I am not sure if you have access to the receipt # that USCIS issued but you can always query that receipt # on the USCIS website under "case status."  See my below screenshot of my case status online (date and case # erased)  Red = where the case # is, Green = where the receipt date and where the clock starts is.  So even if you do not have the form I-797, you can at least see your true receipt date, rather than the date they created the case. (at that time a few months later than receipt)  You all also get to see why I am in IT rather than a mouse drawing artist.

Thank you, my fiance is also struggling to ge feedback from the Attorney since the beggining even, but my fiance has other stress related issues happening right now so I am trying to have direct contact with the Attorney instead of constantly via my fiance. I am trying to stay on it.

Your NOA-1 is October 30th. Forget about the January date! Your NOA-2 should be coming within the next month!
