Hi All,

Some may remember me from the Canadian board. I'm doing all the paperwork for my daughter and her hubby.

She POE'd Oct 22 and they married Oct 26. While they were on their honeymoon, I gathered up all the information and had the paperwork ready for them to sign when they returned.

She mailed out the paperwork for AOS, EAD and AP on November 13, as well. Sent USPS Priority Mail

She received a NOA1 email today...... whoohoo!

Hoping the holidays don't slow things down too much! Will be going for a visit to see her this weekend. Very thankful that we live close enough to visit often :yes:

Yay! Glad to see more Nov filers. It was getting lonely in here.

Anyway, as my updated signature shows, my package was delivered on Nov 17th. For some reason, there was no update on USPS for a few days, so I was getting worried. Now the waiting begins.

Wow an NOA already? That was quick!!! It's pretty nice of you to be helping your daughter and son-in law out with the process.

Hoping for speedy responses for all.

LOL, thanks! I'm a very "detailed" person and my daughter is not so much! It's just easier if I do all the legwork, since we know USCIS paperwork requires the details to be followed to a "T". There's no way I wanted them paying a lawyer, when that money would be better spent on the downpayment of a house :thumbs:

Yep, it was an email NOA1, still waiting for the hard copy.

Realized that I initially posted this in the wrong area. My daughter isn't AOSing from a work, student or tourist visa.

She came in on a K-1 fiance visa, so I'll continue posting updates but up above on the other board for AOS for family petitions :yes:

Hope everyone here gets their petitions all approved quickly and without any RFE's :blink:

Aww it was good to have you in here, however short of a stay it was lol!!! You're right, VJ is such a great resource that the money spent on a lawyer could be put to other important use.

Thanks for the well wishes. Sending positive vibes for your daughter's application.

I found this link on the USCIS website that tells you what steps to take: change of address. You most likely fall in the second category/box. Hope this helps!!!
