Wow, that was fast for USCIS to acknowledge it. I guess we are a day behind you.  Mailed Wed, delivered Fri.   

 

Yeah I was certainly surprised. In fact they charged my credit card literally the day after it got there. I wonder if they just process card payment applications quicker than the checks?

Mine went to Carol Stream IL

Well they successfully charged my card at 11:56PM last night so I suppose I have to call that September 12 (by 4 minutes). Not sure if it's some automated billing process that runs overnight or if they have a night shift.  No SMS or e-mail yet but maybe later today or at least 'soon'.


The charge cleared as "Merchant: USCIS (PHOENIX LOCKBOX Amount: $765.00"

 

9/6/2023  --  I-751 packet mailed by USPS Priority Mail.

9/8/2023  --  Packet received by Phoenix lock box.  Tracking said "Delivered, Individual Picked Up at Postal Facility".

9/12/2023 -- Credit card charged.

We tried to use the card authorization form and it flagged as fraud. (Thanks Vystar!)  We didn't get any rejection notices or anything but we went ahead and mailed out a new package on 9/11/23 with a cashiers check overnight. Her green card expires on the 13th of October and we're leaving for a trip to Turkey on the 2nd. So we really had no time to wait around.

 

9/11/23 Mailed via UPS Overnight

9/12/23 Arrived at Elgin Lockbox

 

I hope to god we get the extension notice before the 2nd. It seems based on other posts people are getting them within 10-12 days?

That's why I keep writing everywhere: please use checks. But nobody listens. Sorry to hear about it, I hope you get your receipt notice soon. 


This is advice I wish we would have seen and followed for sure!

It looks like based upon the timelines on here turn around has been super quick to get NOA within a few days after filing. Hoping for the best here, We've got 19 days

Joining the thread. Package was delivered via USPS to the Phoenix lockbox on 9/11. No other updates yet.

 

 

 

MyUSCIS just updated and shows "Case Was Received And A Receipt Notice Was Sent" with an IOE receipt number. Check hasn't been cashed yet but I expect it will be soon.

Posted

Well, while everyone else already has their cases showing up in myUSCIS and giving status updates, we are still waiting for the text or e-mail with our case number.   They charged my card late Tuesday night so I know all should be well.  But the success of the of the G-1145 E-notifications is starting to look a little more dubious.

 

I'm guessing those of you who are already seeing it in myUSCIS must of already had an online access code from your previous paper filings?

We created my wife’s myUSCIS account to pay the immigrant fee before entering on her CR-1. No online access code at any point that I can recall.

 

Interesting how things are happening in a different order though. We also submitted the G-1145 and nothing there, although there was an email notification that came from myUSCIS today about a case update (just the same update I already saw last night).

Did you have an USCIS Online Account Number in question 9. on the I-751 itself? I had assumed whether that was answered or not would be the difference between it automatically showing up in myUSCIS or having to wait for the mailed access code.

We left that blank since one was never assigned.

Posted

Check was cashed (technically processed as an electronic funds transfer) today.

 

Current recap:

 

9/11 package delivered to Phoenix lockbox

9/13 myUSCIS status update: Case Was Received And A Receipt Notice Was Sent

9/15 check cashed

 

We will be awaiting the arrival of the extension letter in the mail.
