DV 2021 AOS Only

How about you stop stressing needlessly and wasting your time over something you have absolutely no? Focus on utilizing the information right in front of you. There are several other folks with SF as their FO who equally have not yet received their IL, you're not the only one facing this. Relax and stop taking everything some agent (be it on the phone or via EMMA) tells you as the gospel truth. Tier 1 agents see and know exactly what you see and know about your case when you check your case online yourself.
Take up Yoga, or something. DEEP BREATHES AND RELAX!

Are you looking at the documents tab, not the case history tab?

Not @nar31 who you were responding to, but my case history (and my partner's) are in the same state. A while back there was talk of the system having problems, but they've never resolved for us -- are there others who were seeing "invalid date" before but are not anymore? Any reason to think this may be symptomatic of an actual problem with the case(s)?

Screenshot attached. Note that my EAD application (I-765) from some years ago is showing the case history just fine.

My old n400 still says invalid date from Nov 2019 - it had been accurate then got messed with the glitch and never sorted itself. I’m curious though as you don’t seem to have a documents tab - possibly it’s only there for applications thay can be filed online ? Anyway definitely not a problem with the case as all our family ones that have had it this year have all been successfully completed.

Congratulations on your GC! A quick question on your case. Did you do walk-in for your bio? In your timeline bio appointment is on August 9th.

I also had my interview before my bio and will have to wait until my bio appointment (no walk-in in my ASC field)

Thanks,
GK

Thanks.

I did my bio on the same day of the interview. Was not expected since I didn't receive my bio letter until 7/25. You can see my post about my interview. At Page 408-Post number 8158

Thanks! My I-765 was filed on paper, fwiw, and neither I nor my partner have ever filed anything online with USCIS, so that theory's holding water for now at least.

I'm doing a fairly good job of staying calm -- after all waiting for a bio. letter is more-or-less where I would have expected to be at this point (NOA dated 6/23, received 6/28). It wouldn't be unrealistic to be a little further on by now, with a following wind, and it gets tougher as you see more and more people who submitted around the same time or after you getting much further ahead, but I'm staying positive. Just really don't want to be sitting here on October the 1st wondering if there was something I didn't do or didn't think to check. I'm very grateful for this thread (and especially the mods) for the fact that I have at least some peace of mind in that respect.

Just jumping in to say that I have only filed on paper (I-485, I-131, I-765) and I can't see the documents tab, but my friend who filed for naturalization online does, so I'm pretty sure you guys are correct.

I also see a documents tab on my OPT application (filled online) but nothing on my AOS application.

Mine also showed Invalid Date until my next update, which was “New Card is Being Produced”. No updates between getting my NOA nor after my bio, just straight to card being produced. In the mean time use the other USCIS case status check to get the most current status.
Perhaps the “invalid date” will get sorted and disappear once you get your next update too.
 
Hello Mom,

Other applicants from this forum and me that applied through Nashville FO havent received either bio or interview appointments while people doing the process in other FO's are getting them even with later NOA's. Should we do anything other than wait?

@Sm1smom
I heard from my dad that Dv 2021 will be extended due to the Pandemic.
Is it true? I don't want to give false hope to anyone.

It would need congress action which I don't think it will happen. Or may be federal judge could reserve some green cards due to covid but so far reserving did not help DV 2020, not sure it will help for DV 2021. Correct me if I am wrong, mom.

I'm aware of the Lawsuit which reserved some visa, but it's mostly for the ones who do Consular Processing, not AOS

I was expecting to receive my GC today. but got this error by the USPS:
Status: Insufficient Address
Your item was returned to the sender on July 28, 2021 at 1:02 pm in LAUREL, MD 20707 because of an incomplete address.
I'm sure the address is correct. I called customer services and they confirmed the address is correct. Why this happened? does the mail delivery require a signature or just leave it in the mailbox??. I was in my company at that time. Feel so upset and disappoitned.

They just left ours in the mailbox. No signature is needed. Maybe a part of your address was erased or something.

So you didn't submit I824 at the end of your interview and just contacted the embassy? Have you submitted your spouses documents to KCC? Is it something we need to do for FTJ since it is a kind of CP processing?
Click to expand...
i did file i824 after i received the green card - however the embassy has already gotten my file from USCIs before the i-824 was processed( i824 is still pending though).
I did not submit anything to KCC - embassy asked for ds260 confirmation and i assume they pulled the file from KCC because when i checked the ds260 portal - the status said it was transferred to my wifes home country
 
We tried walk in. They refused and told us that there are two kind of checks. These are name check and finger check. Asc initiates finger check and send them to fbı. It takes a few minutes to get the results. Name check is diffrent and it can not start in ASC. It may take a few weeks.
If it is true where is the name check initialize ?
Or they are telling a story to get rid of us :)

Not commenting on if that is true, but what was their conclusion w/ that story? How does that stop them from taking your fingerprint? :confused:

Yes, start following up. Contact EMMA if you haven't done so before. If you have and they still don't see bio scheduled for you, initiate a congressional inquiry.
