Yes sorry for the confusion. I am using the term JS correctly. We have different physical addresses but we have the same mailing address. we had the same address written in previous forms because we were still moving. (Such as EAD which has been approved and the original AOS papers) That should be fine though, right?

Will do thank you what if we have the same address? (Different households, taxes etc) Is that an issue?

Thank you. I will send an entirely new financial support package explaining the contents in the cover letter. I just want to confirm one thing. I864 for my husband - petitioning sponsor I864 for my FIL - the only joint sponsor (correct? even if his wife will file an i864a?) I864a for my MIL - household member Yes we are using income only, but it would be hard to prove the separate income and its just easier for us at the moment to use both parents. Sorry for the many questions, we dont even have taxes where i come from lol so this is all very new!

Hi guys I had a quick but time sensitive question! my husband is my petitioner and sponsor and we got married on a K1 But hes currently doing another masters so his father is going to be our joint sponsor, but because he files taxes jointly with his wife she is going to fill a I-864a too. In that case, is my Father in law the only joint sponsor or 1 of 2 joint sponsors? thank you!!

Thanks! Yeah I know its different than the status update I just wanted a way to know when they've reviewed it. Got it! I had one more question sorry to bother you, I was filing everything with the I-864 with the most tax year being 2022. can I still do so or should i now include 2023 since taxes were due for that year already? I just dont want to confuse them with new numbers

Thank you could I also attach a G1145? The notification of receipt paper?

Oh! I didn't know that either. I will mail them then, thank you. Will I get a notice that says they received my response again after mailing it? Because my status changed to say so when I uploaded the RFE response on the site. I should also add W2s and Tax forms AND form 1099, correct? Yes the I-485 processing time for Chicago Field office is 17.5 months, a long time from now! Hopefully things can be smoother from here onward. Its been such a long frustrating journey. Thanks again Yeah tell me about it. Spousal was not an option for us back then and the processing times were quite long too. Oh well. Hope it ends soon

I can, I just miss home and want to visit my family and be there for important events.

Firstly, I appreciate your reply very much. Thank you for taking the time to reply! I was totally unaware of that, I can't believe what a dumb mistake that is. I am now thinking of submitting a cover letter with the I-864 of my joint sponsor (which they initially had), onto unsolicited evidence. Do you recommend another way? My RFE has given me till May 23 to reply but I can't reply to it anymore on the myuscis site. The wait for AP is around 12.5 months, but there have been several people that filed at the same time as I did that recieved combo cards or at least had a biometrics appointment for AP. I got a biometrics appointment for the EAD and AOS apps only. I'm definitely not allowed to enquire anytime soon because the waiting time for the I-485 at chicago is around 20 months, but again, alot of people applying in dec/jan and even feb have already been approved. But it makes sense now that you mention my mistake. I was honestly hoping to travel and see my family for important events this month but it looks like that's impossible now. Yes I will update my timeline. Thank you!

Hi everyone! I just had 2 quick questions. I filed for AOS after getting married on the K1 visa. I got my work permit shortly after but absolutely nothing in regards to the travel permit. We got an RFE because we submitted the I-864 for our joint sponsor (parents in law) without submitting one for my husband who is my sponsor because I thought we didn't need to do that. So we got an RFE and resubmitted an I-864 for my husband and I-864A for his dad & mom (they file everything together and the income on the tax records is their total income, both of which meet the requirements individually). But we haven't heard anything since and we sent our response in early March. From the limited knowledge I have, cases are approved quickly after RFEs but we have been waiting 2 months now. Is this normal? What is the average time on this? I also wanted to travel back home to renew my passport. Is this a valid reason to ask for an expedited travel permit? Thank you

hi everyone! just wanted to ask, has there been any updates with jan 2022 cases? have they started working on any of them?

as far as i know they got the number on the spreadsheet by scanning cases manually, which could lead to some errors. if by end of september there were 55k cases according to USCIS and 7-8k were processed so far, someone with an NOA1 of Oct1 2022 should have around 47k cases ahead of them. So either we're missing something or the 38k number is inaccurate.

Any idea what the current backlog is since September 30 (the last quarterly report)? the report said there were 55k cases pending, but one of the spreadsheets says only 38k pending as of october, and i don't get how they got that number

Totally agreed I just wanted to add that not only have they started with November, people with NOA1s at the end of November and even early December have heard back. So we're definitely getting shorter wait times but also its such a large range of varying wait times between people (from 16 - 13 months) so the USCIS will only report the shorter wait times when they become a bit more uniform, imo. I hope that's a bit of positivity your way

do you guys know when the quarterly report will be released? the one from Oct '22 - Jan2023?
