Please count me in as well. We sent our AOS/EAD/AP papers on Nov 19 and it was delivered to Chicago Lockbox on Nov 21. Hoping to receive the NOA1 by next week.

Received my biometrics letter today for December 13th. Whee! Here's hoping that I'll be in and out of the office and we can take the rest of the day to explore the city.

Neal received NOAs for all 3 apllications (I-485, I-131 and I-765) today.

I think our application may be at the National Benefits Center (since our receipt number begins with 'MSC'), but I'm not positive. I'm having trouble, however, checking the case status online. None of the 3 receipt numbers are recognized in the USCIS system. Has anyone else had this problem?

Hi NealandCari,

We have the same problem, our case #s also begin with MSC. I called the USCIS line wednesday and they registered in the system the problem but I still can't check the status

Saludos,

It took me a couple of days after receiving the NOA1s (also starting with MSC#) before I could register them online in the system. I'd say sit tight and keep trying again until you hit that special day.

We are November filers too. I still haven't gotten the whole touch thing figured out. I just registered my cases on the USCIS site. How do I know when they are touched? Right now the last updated box shows Nov. 20 when my biometrics letter was issued. Also, I have my biometrics appointment tomorrow. What exactly is going to happen?

Hey everybody, we are still waiting for NOA1 and/or the checks to get cleared. It's been almost 3 weeks now; should I worry? Well, actually, I'll rephrase this: I am already worried

Is there a number where I can call and ask about our application?

Thanks alot.

I'm not sure if you can check the status of a case until you've received the NOA (I think you need the receipt# when calling the USCIS), although I could be wrong about that. Their phone# is 1-800-375-5283 if you want to give it a try, but like I said, I think you need a receipt # to get anywhere.

At least you were smart and paid for delivery confirmation, so you know they received it (I didn't and bit my fingernails every day for 2+ weeks until the checks cleared). I would give it a couple more days. Looking at your timeline, you should see the checks clear or receive the NOA any minute now...

I know what you're going through though...I'm about ready to hold my postwoman hostage until she hands over my biometric appt. letter!!

Best Wishes,

Tanya & Ozzy

Our case # begins with MSC also. We received NOA on 11/20 (dated 11/16)...I was able to access the case online on 11/25. That was the first time I tried though, so I'm not sure if/when it was available before that.

Thanks for your encouragement. Yes, I do know they received it, but now I am imagining all other type of scenarios, like that I forgot to include something crucial and they are going to send back the packet etc

I'll wait until tomorrow... It's been one week since I keep telling myself that it should be any minute now

Quite a good week so far! Passed my Illinois drivers test on saturday - literally a couple of hours before our first lot of snow here in Chicago, I managed to get a couple of freelance jobs a couple of weeks before my temp work visa expires and today i got my biometrics appointment letter, which is scheduled for 14th december.

The good things will soon be balanced out by crappy stuff though - I'm expecting an RFE at some point as i don't think i put enough copies of birth certificate, photos etc in the AOS package, but i think i might go buy a couple of lottery tickets while this good streak lasts!

Neal got his biometrics appointment today - scheduled for December 19th. So far, so good!

Just an update. I received 3 NOAs (AOS, EAD, AP) yesterday and received biometric appointment today in mail.
