You do know you can turn that off right? 😏 I just turned mine off it's  a bummer to see lol luckily it's only an estimate and does not really mean to much!

It really was a bummer to see lol. I can’t see how to turn it off! 🙈

I think it's inside your settings or timeline, it's  there though. I don't  remember which.

When you go and edit your timeline, go all the way to the bottom. There you can enable/ disable the email updates.

Vermont says 18 months right now so maybe I get a Christmas gift 2024 🤣

Thank you!! ☺️ I found it there & switched it off.  Nebraska also says average 18.5 months so I’m also in this for the long haul. 🥲

I don't think the address on the check will play a factor on whether  they accept the check or not. As long as the account has funds in it that's all they care about.

Case updated to fingerprints were taken so no field trip to an ASC for me 🥳

[gogogo786 38]

Just received the text my case was received with receipt number YSC239XXXXXXX. So excited and relieved, me and the wifey did it all by ourselves bypassing the attorney, used some staples by mistake and was afraid they might not accept the case. But all's good. Since it's the Potomac center, I'm expecting a long hibernation of the file LOL. Any other November 2022 filers at the Potomac?

Our check had our old address (two addresses back, in fact) on it and USCIS cashed it out no issue.

Hello! End-of-October filer here, so I'll be looking at both the October and November threads 

 

 

31 OCT 2022: Sent ROC packet out via UPS.

 

7 NOV 2022: Received text from USCIS:  “Your case was received. Official Receipt Notice (Form I-797C) to follow in mail."

 

12 NOV 2022: Received I-797 NOA in the mail (dated 7 NOV 2022), 24 months extension.

 

21 NOV 2022: Received I-797C Biometrics appointment in the mail (dated 12 NOV 2022) for 29 NOV 2022.

 

Called USCIS today to try to move my biometrics appointment to a different state because I am/was planning to go on a work trip to that state next week but the agent said it wasn't possible. At least she was nice about it, and offered if I'd like to change the date instead -- I declined because I'd just be on another work trip then. She also offered to look up my case's processing time (unprompted, which was kind), and at first she said 18 months (which I figured), but then she looked up something further (not sure what, I was distracted with having to possibly change my work trip plans) and came back to me with an August 2023 date. Again, I was distracted so I just said, "great, sounds good, thanks!" After hanging up I realized that August 2023 is practically around the corner and I wish I had paid more attention to what she was telling me. Ha!

Wow, that’s a fast turnaround on biometrics. What service center was your petition sent to?
