Hi all, 

 

I filed yesterday, below are my dates. [Kansas City, MO office]

 

Do you know what "Estimated wait time" means?

sounds to me like a set time when they would get back to your file and do some processing on it. I applied on Dec 17th and both times were 12 months, but today the completion time changed to 9 months and wait time to 6 months.

Submitted date is the date you submitted your application. Estimated completion is the approximate date your process will finish, based on current local office completion estimates. Estimated wait time is the time until the next action on your case - biometrics etc. 

 

Both the estimated times are quite unreliable, the wait time more so. There is a good chance the wait time will come and go with no action. The completion time is also fluid based on how quickly or slowly the local office processes cases. It could go up or down. 

My USCIS Journey...

 

I had an I-485 filing already submitted through an employment-based application. Post-marriage, I submitted an I-130, which after being approved was interfiled with the existing I-485.

I am so sad that my application is going  to be super slow because of applying through mail :( I sent on the 11th and they only just received it on the 22nd. Even with 2 day shipping. I guess I should have filled earlier and not so close to Christmas. I am thinking its going to take about a month to get a NOA1 letter in the mail.

Good evening and Merry Christmas, my wife is applying under the 3 year rule, and her date to apply was tomorrow, the 26th.  However, I guess the USCIS website runs on GMT, allowed me to submit and pay. The case showed up on her account and shows as December 26th. Applying in San Antonio, Texas, hopefully this flies by.
