January 2021 - AOS Fillers

I sent it my husbands application on January 16th (Husband came on K1 visa in November). He got a text last night from USCIS confirming that our fingerprint fee for I-485 was received. They cashed my check today...

You are on your way now!

Hello everyone. Got the “Fingerprints fee received” notification. Can I consider this notification as a sign that everything is good with documents we have sent and we are moving forward to biometrics and further? I assume request for additional evidence would have been before this step, right?

No not necessarily you can receive an RFE at any time during the process. The notification is just that a notification. It's still much to early to assume. Let's just hope all will be well.

Anyone else got the text notification or payment accept or received the actual NOA?

I received some text messages 7 business days after having sent the envelope. Afterwards,  I got 3 mails with the NOA1 hardcopies (2 weeks from the text messages).

Did you pay only $1225 total and thus still no fee for I-765 and I-131? Just trying to confirm the current fees.

That is normal. https://www.uscis.gov/news/alerts/uscis-lockbox-updates "As a result of COVID-19 restrictions, an increase in filings, current postal service volume and other external factors, you may experience a delay of four to six weeks in receiving your receipt notice after properly filing an application or petition with a USCIS lockbox. These delays will not affect the receipt date which is determined pursuant to 8 C.F.R. 103.2(a)(7). Delays may vary among form types and lockbox locations."

My NOA1 is 1/14/2021, still no any signs of biometrics or anything. Let’s hope it will be soon, but I have a feeling it will be at least 2-3 more months of wait.

Same here...honestly for people like us who were able to enter the US recently on a K1, I thought the bio could have been waived.....
