DV 2020 AOS Only

The same with me, my package was delivered on 6/23/2020 - AOS package delivered to Chicago lockbox and since then no any notice, email's ant etc.

My AOS document was delivered on 6/22/2020 at Chicago lockbox. Today, I called USCIS to get the status and gave me case numbers for applications. It was accepted on 7/7, but No text/email although I included the form.
So, Monday, 6/22 delivery and Monday, 7/7 acceptance. Just 2 week lead time.

This is my resubmission of I-485. I still don't know how come first document was rejected. Anyway, it is good news.

Never got my text/email either... I understood there were quite a few cases like that
 
Hey all, yesterday I received an interview invitation for next week. I don't have a biometrics appointment yet, though. I'm afraid I will be rescheduled, but fingers crossed. Just a few days to review all my documents, but everything should be in order. I'll keep you posted.

Congrats! I even went and checked your ASC and it won't reopen until 27th, and the interview is scheduled for earlier than that...
I hope you get more luck than @kong17

Congrats and Good Luck! Hope they accept to interview you without bios... What is your FO (region)?
 
Hello,
I will be moving to a new address on July 23rd, but I will still be able to check my current mailbox until July 31st. When is the best time to change the address?
 
Yes, that's correct! You just get letter and no update on your online status until your case is being approved.
Got it. I followed up with KCC if my FO has ever requested my document to get ready for interview.
KCC responded within 2 days saying that my case was forwarded to USCIS already. So I really just need to wait for interview or it gets approved without interview with a lot more patience....

If anyone has opinion or any thoughts, please let me know!!

My birth certificate is back home in my country. The Covid pandemic has caused delivery services to completely shut down there hence I cannot get it shipped to me. Any alternatives that I could have for this particular document? Not scheduled for an interview yet and waiting for delivery services to resume so I can probably overnight it to me, but thinking of a backup plan.
 
Congratulation! Did you receive interview letter by mail? Did your USCIS case status update for the interview notice?

Thank you, yes I received mail and no my case status stayed the same thru out after my bio which was done back in dec, my case status changed after my interview was finished as under review for few min and thn card has been produced after few moments and as of yesterday, case has been approved.

Instruction is for address change to be completed within 10 days of moving.

An unsolicited aside:
Be aware USCIS may continue to go to your old address long after the address change has been submitted, you may miss important notice/communications from USCIS as a result. So hopefully you can access mail from the old address until the end of the FY at least, just in case USCIS correspondence continues to get sent to the old address.

That’s amazing! Congratulations for your approval!! Very happy for you

It basically means your FO is aware your AOS is DV based since they’ve already reached out to KCC for your KCC case file. Since you’ve already completed your bio, yes there’s the possibility your case may be adjudicated without an interview if your IO (upon review of your AOS package) determines they have everything needed to adjudicate without an interview.

There’s no alternative that I know of. The expectation is for one to attend the interview with the original copy of their submitted documents.
 
Congrats @pobst1! Please keep us posted.
Based on my observation (I might be wrong) it is not as they claimed on their YouTube info-session. I remember they were saying processing cases on First In, First Out basis. However, it looks like CN is not a priority, but some states (probably with less number of cases, or with less impact of coronavirus) have the priority. But, again, considering that each case is unique, it's hard to understand their algorithm.

Based on whose claim on their YouTube info session?

Well... I don’t know whose info session but applying logic, seeing as you can only submit your AOS application when your CN is listed as current, then first in and CN must indeed be linked ....so if there is any delay because of delay in submission of AOS packet it is not becasue of any decision uscis is actively taking. Different FOs do however process differently as has been mentioned countless times in the forums so you can not compare (anything, not just DV) chronologically across FOs.
