  1. You might want to try submitting an expedite request through the USCIS online portal, especially if you're facing financial hardship. They may accept your request and prioritize getting your work permit to you within the next 2-3 weeks. Alternatively, you could reach out to your local congress representative for assistance. Wishing you the best of luck!
  2. Everything is pretty meaningless and random when the USCIS is concerned!
  3. All a waiting game unfortunately! As many continue to say, no news is good news once you have received your NOA. I am in the same boat, still waiting.....Keep your head up, each day is a day closer to this nonsense process being over!
  4. I would either Ask Emma via the online webchat, or contact the USCIS via telephone. The fact the USCIS has taken your money is a good sign that your package has been accepted.
  5. Sorry, just to clarify, the papers that I had filed were barcoded by the USCIS which means they had been reviewed in some capacity. You will most likely have to wait to receive the return of your package, sorry!
  6. Yet we were told the recent increase in filing fees would result in greater efficiencies, and faster processing times..........
  7. Roughly 5 working days. They had already coded, and scanned the paperwork into their system, so it was a case of the USCIS cashing the check and sending a receipt.
  8. My initial package was rejected due to Capital One believing USCIS request for payment was fraudulent. It took approx. 8 weeks for Chicago lockbox to return my package. Once received, I returned the package (UPS overnight delivery) using checks as opposed to credit card for payment method. I received my work permit two weeks later in the mail. Still waiting for my i-485 to be adjudicated on. Frustrating that I had to wait 8 weeks, however re-submitting application my push you further down the line, or cause confusion with USCIS who will assume you have two active applications.
  9. I was really lucky. Already having my social security number may have sped up the process. I have seen via this forum that some who filed in March 2024 have received their green cards. However, there is certainly no rhyme or rhythm to the process as each case is certainly different. Best of luck to all!
  10. I received my work permit card on 08/07/24. USCIS still actively reviewing my I-485 application.....no firm date or timescale on when it will be approved. Hope that you receive some positive news soon.
  11. Congratulations that's awesome! The update here has been really helpful, and at least gives the rest of us hope 😊. God bless and all the best with your new life in the States!
  12. For sure, I totally understand that I may have been one of the lucky ones. Hoping everybody else will have the same kind of luck 🙂
  13. Completed my biometrics today using downloads from my USICS account with no problems.
  14. You’re most welcome 😊. Following the advice on this forum, I reached out to 'Ask Emma Live Chat' to get my access code. It took me about six attempts with different agents, but I finally found a really helpful one who provided the code. After that, I was able to ask for the date, location, and time of my biometrics appointment, which they gave me. The access code lets you track your filings online, and the USCIS will also add your NOA to your account. You might also be able to reschedule your biometrics appointment for an earlier date from your account. Additionally, your biometrics appointment letter will be updated in your account by the USCIS. I’m still waiting for the same notices to arrive by mail, but that's just a formality since the exact same paperwork is now available in my online account. Hope this helps everyone in some way 😊.
