One thing you might look at is how you paid for the app, is the payment form something you can track, that might help with you being stressed and show a little progress to you.

Have you received any notice from the USCIS that they received your application. If you have, then you can go to the USCIS web site and look up your case number, which is on the notice. Six weeks to wait is not a very long time at all, even for Vermont.

It will really help us to help you, if you would fill out your timeline.

If you have a case number, you can also sign up for email notification. That lets you know when someone has done something to your file.

If your lawyer is a little sloppy, why did you hire her?

Call your lawyer, most likely, the first notice of action would have gone to her office as she is the lawyer of record. Find out if she just hasn't been updating you.

I recieved a notice about 7 weeks ago that said that the check amount was incorrect . and to correct it...the lawyer had originally given me the wrong amount...so i re sent it and thats the last i heard of it...the reason for my concern is that i heard that the approval or denial comes within 4 to 6 weeks..as for the timeline , i just joined and didnt even know about it..

well i have a union job and the lawyer is one of the benefits that comes with the job..and i already started the process so i dont really want to start over..i just want this to be over..and i know im being impatient...but if i saw a little progress it would make me feel a little better..

Fill in your timeline so we can help you better. If you don't have a copy of the NOA1, ask your lawyer to fax you a copy. (Its the payment receipt notice.) It has a bunch of important information on it, namely your receipt number so you can track your case online, your received date, which is what USCIS uses to determine how old your application is, and the phone number for the USCIS.

Best of luck!

WELL MY PROBLEM IS THAT I DID GET THE NOTICE THAT SAID THEY RECIEVED IT BUT THAT I HAD TO RETURN IT BECAUSE THE AMOUNT OF THE CHECK WAS WRONG...THE LAWYER HAD GIVEN ME THTE WRONG AMOUNT TO SEND...I NEVER LOOKED FOR A RECEIPT NUMBER...NOW THAT STRESSES ME EVEN MORE BECAUSE IF THERE WAS ONE ON THERE I DONT EVEN KNOW IT..BUT THE LETTER DIDNT GIVE ME A DENIAL OR AN APPROVAL.

Get a photocopy of both sides of the check that was returned to the bank, the back side will have your number on it, the number used for tracking purposes. It will be the number that starts with 3 letter, once you get that someone here can help you further.

Just to clarify, has your 2nd check with the correct amount been cashed? Sorry if I missed that somewhere along the way. The # for USCIS is 1800-375-5283. They aren't very helpful, but there is a # Go to this site https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/index.jsp when you have the case # and you can check the status. Might want to consider going alone for the AOS If the lawyer cant even read the form and tell you the correct $ amount, I wouldnt entrust her/him to my future happiness.
