  1. Awesome to hear. 😊 For your friend that must of been around 6 months for her which is not bad. Do you happen to know if she had to do an interview prior to her I-485 approval?
  2. Thank you! Glad it went quickly and wife is happy too. 😊 Now we await the I-485 hopefully doesn’t take too long. 😇 Also anyone who’s done the I-765 how long did it take you from approval to receive your EAD and SS card?
  3. Update today. After doing her biometrics yesterday her case for I-765 was approved today. 😊 awaiting notice and her cards now.
  4. I see. Might be it. Least it’s not something more serious and a relatively easy fix to do. Don’t stress too much. The first time I filed and it got sent back I forgot to give the first page of the I-485 filing lol.
  5. @ScarletWitch6x Did you send them a copy of your visa in your passport? I also sent the NOA2 but also a copy of my wife visa that was given to her in her passport.
  6. Biometrics appointment attended today. Quick and no problems. They let us do it early since nobody else was there. Now to wait on updates to the cases. 🥰
  7. @Edward and Jaycel For the return shipping I not sure I understand. Should I buy another envelope and buy stamps and put my address on it and put it inside the envelope that I will be sending to them? Currently what my nearby consulate requirements for ROM:
  8. Was the same for me. Was like 3 weeks of waiting for me but don't forget too that they don't count weekends and any holidays as working days so in reality for me it was exactly 14 days for a response from them so like "2 weeks" for them. 🤣
  9. Congrats! 😊 Glad to hear everything going good so far with your cases.
  10. Should be fine though I've seen online some people who used CC's to pay their fees sometimes their CC company fraud protections flagged the payment as suspicious I guess due to it being such a large amount. Though I believe USCIS will try 2 times before rejecting the cases. Perhaps you can call your CC company to let them know you have a large amount going tto be charged by USCIS?
  11. I did checks also but my wife (beneficiary) name was no where on the checks. I also signed the checks too. She doesn't have a bank account currently either. Though IDK if it had anything to do with it but the sections where it stated who filled out the forms I did say I did them for her and I did make sure the address on the checks were the same as my mailing address.
  12. @Edward and Jaycel Yes. Had the coversheet with the returned paperwork and was asked to put on top of the resubmission which I did. Did not have any problems with my paperwork after that.
  13. For me the first time I sent my paperwork in they sent everything back but also stapled the I-797C to the associated paperwork but mine was sent back due to forgeting to attach the first page of my wife I-485 and was suppose to use the update forms and the I-765 cannot start processing due to the I-485 being sent back to me. I actually never received any rejection letters or notices just all my paperwork sent back in 1 big white envelope.
  14. Just to clarify. Once I receive my wife ROM I can go to the Phillipines consulate (local one for me is based in Honolulu) to change her name on her passport? Also since she is already staying here in the USA with me do I order/get the ROM from the PSA or the consulate and if I have to go through PSA to get the ROM how do I go about doing that?
  15. 💓 Won't be a total loss though since I will have to get a few things notarized (some of my copies) and I don't have anyone here who can legally do it here so I should be able to get that at least done when I go.
  16. Yeah I just saw that too. I don't think it will be possible to do it in the timeframe by the time I will be in the area but I will still start the process anyhow. Luckly the consulate there will be in charge of ROMs for our area.
  17. Lol my boss isn't going to be exactly thrilled for me asking for time off again so soon too. Also going to try to get her Philippines passport updated with my last name since the consulate isn't too far away and I will already be there for the day. Might as well try to.
  18. Received 4 letters today from USCIS. Got my online code to add the case to her MyUSCIS account and her biometrics appoint was scheduled on 2/18/2025. 🥰
  19. Might not have to contact USCIS via live agent. USPS does informed delivery in my area and it show my notices from USCIS should be delivered today so I will go check later this afternoon since that's when most of everyone mail is delivered by then.
  20. Tried that actually. Unfortunately the agent did not give me the online access code.
  21. Unfortunately I cannot. My wife did create a MyUSCIS account but when I try to add the cases for her it's asking for the online code that's in the mail. Going to check my mail soon to see if I get but they only mailed out my notice on 1/31/2025 so it might be awhile still.
  22. Yeah. But its for my wife so it will be worth it in the end when it's all said and done. 🥰 I'm still waiting for my NOA with the appointment date to arrive but checking the case status it does show her appointment has been set though if they ask me to go farther than Hawaii for her biometrics I'm gonna ask USCIS to reimburse me 🤣
  23. When my wife has to go we have to go to Honolulu which is in my state but since I live in a neighboring island I have to take a $300 plane ride probably another $300 hotel room and either Lyft or Uber for probably the same 10 min visit lol.
  24. Also happened to me as well. Was about 2 business weeks (14 business days) before the Phoenix Lockbox responsed but everything was good this time. Hope everything goes well and quickly for you.
  25. Also too my NOA for my wife were sent out before the checks were cashed. NOA was sent on 1/31/2025 but the checks cashed did not show up in my bank account till today and was dated 2/3/2025 as cashed via ETF. Did you have enough funds for them for the checks to clear?
