My check for N-400 just got cashed yesterday. I am seeing the front & back of the cashed check online at my bank site. There are a few numbers on the back. Where would the case number be? This is at Texas Service Center.
 
First of all no reason for getting the case # so quickly. Within a week or so you will get it by mail anyway. Let us say your case is at Vermont then your case# is
ESC*00all numbers before -VTCHI97
 
I got my receipt today. My receipt number starts with SSC*00153XXXX (last 4 masked).

I tried to test various boundaries on the receipt numbers and it seems like from SSC*001534780 to SSC*001535962 are all N-400 applications received at TSC on July 7th. Am I correct in assuming that 1183 N-400 applications were receipted on 07/07 at TSC? I wrote a little application to automatically pull down application statuses on a range of receipt numbers, but I cannot find it. Does anybody know/have any application (I have seen excel) that can do this? I am interested in pulling these 1183 applications on a periodic basis to see how they are doing for comparison purposes.

Whilst from a programming stand point its an interesting idea, you may want to rethink doing that as I doubt very much USCIS is going to appreciate it, they may log ip addresses to boot too ;)
 
Program like that is a waste of time and effort. LUD online doesn't change after the fingerprints notice is generated.

Cheers.

Yes that status messg is useless for many applicants. Even when it does get updated, you don't know which DO the application is for. For ex : San Jose DO is slow and SF/OAK are faster even though they are all CSC.

Maybe fun but do you really want to be traced by them for accessing so many cases?
 
I don't really care about getting traced (one, I don't think they care and secondly and more importantly, I don't see any notices that state that I can only track my own case and third, they shut you down temporarily after you run a few and its not against any "law", nobody is "hacking" here, it might be against USCIS web policy but probably has no basis w.r.t. any law) What I care is that its probably a waste of time, which I agree. So I am not going to bother. I tracked a lot of cases during my AOS time. Not only me, if you dig up some old threads during 2003 timeframe, a lot of people were running trace programs to track 485 statuses. People were using proxies to defeat USCIS limits on case tracks in a session. But for N400, as each DO follows different time frames, its a waste of time here in my case.
