BREAKING!

 

Sent packet:

09/24/2021 - Fedex overnight service $104

10/02/2021 - Money gone from account (sent two CITIBANK cheques (not money order nor credit card))

(TODAY) 10/04/2021 - Four letters received. Aknowledgement/receipts for I-130, I-485, I-765 and I-131

 

No text messages sms, no email

 

1. Is it normal that we never got any SMS text messages, monies gone out from the bank and also received receipt letters came in the post (grateful)
2. We also sent I-130A, and I-864, is it normal not to receive any receipt letters for these two?
3. Considering I got these letters just today. is it ok and shall I chat with EMMA and ask for an online code (whatever it is)
4. What will happen now (next steps)?

 

Please!

Q1: If you sent that G-something form for text/email contact then you should have received them. But USCIS systems malfunction a lot so it is possible that even after submitting G-something form the messages remain AWOL

Q2: Receipt notice is not sent for I864 because it is not an application. Not sure what I130A isso can't say about it. 

Q3: Not sure about this Emma thing.

Q4: Notice for Biometrics should come within a month. Although this biometric thing fluctuates a lot. Sometimes USCIS would delay calling for biometrics for almost a year right before they adjudicate the actual applications.

Thank you for your reply, really appreciate it

 

1. Yes, we did send G- form for digital notifications

2. If anyone else can confirm if I we suppose to receive this letter of receipt for I130A, please?

Hi! I didnt get a letter for i130a and 864. Those are supplemental docs to 130 and 485, respectively so no receipt for those docs.

The I-130A is a part of your I-130 just as the I-864 is a part of the I-485, so you only receive receipts for the main applications. You're fine. Nothing to worry about

Wow. That was quick. Mine is AoS for a parent. Maybe they are processing quicker for spouse based applications

Has the money been withdrawn from the bank yet?

I hope you did not send money order, as in my understanding MOs cannot be checked if been withdrawn or not

On the contrary, I actually used a money order through USPS and they allow you to check if it has been cashed or not

I sent a personal check. But I have been checking my bank account multiple times a day. No luck. Money has not been withdrawn yet.

I would definately email them.

You don't ask you don't get. It is not a crime to ask and double check, yes even if their SLA is 30 days. You only making sure.

Well mine came back as rejected on Monday after 3 weeks.... They said they could not see the beneficiary info (missing pages) so I have to fix it. I pulled the package and the page was inside stamped by them so I do not what the guy was looking at. I went online that night refilled I130 online this time and this weekend I will send back the rest. I lost one month just because they did not pay attention.
