Where did they say that? I'm seeing a bunch of new cases with biometrics reuse for this week from the IOE093110+ block.

Hey there! I'm glad that someone else has the same timeline I do. Sadly, they still haven't added the receipt notice to my online account and it's too soon the get it through the mail. The only thing they added was the Biometrics reuse and a TIFF file with like 20 pages out of the 400+ pages if evidence that I submitted. I'm assuming my priority date is March 14 because when the case showed up, it said "Case was received .... March 14". Then it changed to "Case is being actively reviewed" on April 2nd. That's when the biometrics reused notice showed up. So yours should be coming soon if the waived it. Fun fact: The random TIFF file they uploaded to my online account with around 20 pages out of the 400+ pages of evidence I submitted has a bunch of numbers at the top (like they always do when they scan the documents). Those numbers show the date they actually scanned the documents. It says 031825 so they received it on 03/14 and scanned them two days later on 03/18. But they took two full weeks from the moment they were scanned to the moment they uploaded them to the case. But then again, my case had a full fee waiver so maybe that delayed the whole thing.

I received the text with the case number around 4 pm EST. 04/02 - Biometrics reuse notice added to my online account around 10 pm EST. Now it says "Case is Being Actively Reviewed by USCIS", which basically means we put your case in a corner until we feel like it. It's kinda odd that the receipt notice is not available on my online account. Anyone else having the same issue?

04/01 - Case added to my USCIS online account

I just logged in to my USCIS online account and found out that they scanned my case so now I have my receipt number. It took them 18 days to scan my package. No receipt available to download yet. I still have not received the text message or e-mail even though I included a G-1145.

03/12 - Mailed my N-400 package with a fee waiver to Elgin, IL Lockbox via UPS 03/14 - Package Delivered at the Front Desk and Signed by Robbins No receipt number via text or e-mail yet. It looks like I'm the only one who filed by mail so far.

When did you get married?

You have to UPLOAD EVERYTHING. Doesn't matter if it has 10,000 pages. If you want her to get approved, UPLOAD EVERYTHING without any alterations or redactions. You're providing these documents to the US Government, not some random person. It's for your wife's own good. If you don't include everything, you will delay the entire process because they will send you a RFE asking you for more proof of bonafide marriage. Again, UPLOAD EVERYTHING. You don't even have to print it. Just upload the PDF online since you have the privilege of uploading things on your USCIS account unlike poor souls like me that can't upload anything and have to wait for the inevitable RFE to be able to submit more proof or print it and mail it, hoping it won't get lost.

Careful with what USCIS customers support says. They're not employees for the airline. USCIS can say that you can use the copy but if the airline says you can't board with the copy then you won't be able to. Period.

Did you receive the paper copy? Remember that is risky for her to travel with the downloaded version instead of the physical copy. If she tries to use the online version, is a gamble. She can be denied boarding and lose the money spent on the tickets. Regardless, let us know how it goes. Good luck!

They never uploaded it for me. It took 12 days for me to receive the letter.

Yeah, that's good! Congrats! You should be getting the receipt through mail within 2 or 3 weeks.

I would recommend the original. I've read that some people tried using a printed copy and they got denied boarding by the airline staff at the airport.

That's rough. I'm sorry all this has happened to you. Sadly, there's nothing you can do. Just wait until you get the extension letter by mail and then mail it to her to Japan through FedEx. You should receive it within 30 to 45 days. She will be able to return to the US with her green card and that letter. Before buying flight tickets, the first thing you should always do is check if your passport or green card is expired. For the I-751, USCIS sent me a reminder letter 120 days before the expiration of the green card. I got one through mail and through my online account.

Based on what happened to me, I can tell you that you will have to wait at least 32 days. There will be no record of your case until they scan and process your documents. Trust me, I tried everything. Nothing showed up until they did. Did your wife's green card expired already? If it's still not expired she can travel without the receipt.

Yeah, I already got my receipt. Check my previous comments on this post. After my I-751 package was delivered at the lockbox, it took 32 days for me to get the extension letter by mail.

Another update. I just logged in to my USPS Informed Delivery account and I can see that the biometrics reuse notice is coming tomorrow. The letter has the return address from the NBC (Lee's Summit, MO) but it was actually mailed from Vermont (you can tell by looking at the stamp). It was mailed on April 10, which is a day after my case status changed to the infamous: "Case Is Being Actively Reviewed By USCIS". I'm glad that I don't have to go to get my biometrics done again since the closest ASC is almost 2 hours away. Still nothing showing up available for download on my USCIS online account.

Today I finally received my receipt notice. It says that my fee was waived so thankfully they approved my fee waiver. Now it's time to wait for either the biometrics waiver or the appointment.

I just logged in to my USPS Informed Delivery account and I saw that my receipt notice is arriving tomorrow from California. According to the stamp, it was mailed on April 2, so it took 10 days to arrive. Still nothing available for download on my USCIS online account.

Thank you! Sadly mine is California. That's what they said when I called USCIS.

Congrats! Nothing here yet. Quick question: what's the processing center shown at the bottom of your receipt notice?

Today my case status changed to the infamous: "Case Is Being Actively Reviewed By USCIS". Still nothing available to see or download on my USCIS online account so I don't even know if they'll reuse my biometrics or not. No receipt yet.

Thank you very much for your response. That's unfortunate. I was hoping to be able to download the receipt to renew my driver's license since they take so long to mail it. My driver's license expires this week.

Hello everyone! I was wondering if any of you can see anything in the documents tab, like the receipt or the actual forms and/or evidence that you mailed. Nothing is showing up for me.

I finally got it! It took exactly 21 days to get the case number for my I-751 with the fee waiver request. I logged into my online account this morning and found that my case had been added! They still have not sent the text or email notification. The Receipt Notice is still not available for download.
