Hi! I submitted my application last night but didn’t get any email or text update. Tonight I login and found two documents under documents. How can I sign up for email and text notification? Apparently they sent me two documents but never emailed or texted me. I can’t login everyday to check documents.

She can see her letter and date through documents in her account just in case she wants to know beforehand. Congrats on her upcoming oath ceremony

That’s awesome. I chuckled when you said she was dragged into another room for her oath ceremony. I’m sure she went willingly. Congrats!!!!

You’re a wonderful friend. Many believe that need to hire a lawyer when they haven’t committed a crime. It’s a great cost for nothing. I saw someone hire a lawyer and was denied adjustment because the wife did not share her inability to have kids when asked if she discussed having kids with her husband. They apparently didn’t need a lawyer but got one anyway. I don’t know if they appealed but that was the discussion when they returned to the waiting area. Wife thought it was best to state that they have never discussed having kids when the truth is that she’s unable to. As a matter of fact they were not a young couple either. The only advise the lawyer gave as he sat before me was to just be relaxed. Congrats again to your friend

My son got just one email notification throughout the process. You don’t have to log in daily. There are case tracker apps. The one I used is called case tracker for USCIS and it has the flag with the USCIS logo with the eagle. Once your info is in you just need to check without having to be logging in.
