Ok my mind is going crazy !!! Constantly checking my email. I would relax after at least a NOA1. They received my package June 30. I figured I would have to wait a little longer sending it in right before the holiday. But the wait is pure agony right now

It takes a while before your wife's AoS package accepted by USCIS.

I sent ours on June 26, but I didn't get a NOA in the mail until July 7th, even though I did request being notified by email/text I haven't received any. So ... BREATH! BREATH!

Hi there,

Please go to see your international student advisors and show your receipt of I-485 to them.

They are going to change your status probably. Once you submitted I-485, you are not technically an F-1 student now.

Additionally, in order to qualify for in-state tuition, I heard that you and your spouse have to pay taxes more than 1 year. But please confirm this with your advisors. Good luck to you!

I went to my CUNY school yesterday with the NOA of I-485, and copies of marriage certificate - to change my last name - and three copies of my leases going back to 2011. She said it'd probably take some time, and maybe they even needed more paperwork. So like always, I expected a lot more headache and work - but guess what! Today already, the changes went through and instead of paying $3405 for six credits (last semester) I'm only paying $1658! Already been through 5 semesters of $6300 for each one so $1600 will be nothing .... So happy! Less to worry about now.

I had a biometrics appointment scheduled for this coming Monday, but I've already done a successful walkin and had them taken on the 7th.

Do I need to contact uscis and tell them or cancel the appointment for Monday, or can I safely ignore it?

Is it also normal that my case/receipt numbers still dont show online as of this time with NoA date June 23? :-!

What does it say on USCIS website when you out your receipt numbers?

Did you call USCIS? and expedite by yourself?

im trying to expedite mine, but the congressman doesnt answer to my calls/emails

3 July: Called USCIS, put in expedite. Was told that the local office would be contacting me in 5 days to request supporting evidence and would tell me where to fax/send it.

7 July: I called USCIS to confirm that someone was looking into my case and would be contacting me since I hadn't heard anything yet. (I had read that USCIS had previously denied expedite requests based on a lack of evidence but never asked the person to submit anything in the first place). Was told by Tier 1 that it would take another 30 days (?!?), so I asked to speak to a Tier 2. She said that if someone didn't contact me the next day, it meant the request was denied.

8 July: No news from USCIS so I wrote (faxed) to my congressman's district office. I included a letter explaining why I was writing and the basis for my expedite, job offer email from the company, some documents showing our financial obligations (e.g. rent statements, monthly bills, etc).

9 July: Congressman's immigration liaison staffer called me and said that she received my documents and would be calling USCIS. In the evening, she called again and said expedite was approved and I would hear in 3 working days from USCIS whether the EAD is denied or approved.

11 July: Status changed to card production!
