November 2009 family based filers, post here

I just posted the application for my wife. I recently became a US citizen and now submitted AOS for my wife who is currently on H1-B.

Will update the time line too for our case.
 
Hello All,

My checks are cashed today for $1010 and $355. I will post updates as and when there is one.

Good Luck all of us..

Thanks,
APRUSCIND
 
well thats what I did, its all depending on the person who answers the phone, because the one I talked to was really nice and I ask her if there was anyway of knowing if my applications were in the system already, and she asked my first and last name and birth date and there I was and I asked her if I could have the # and she said no problem, get a pencil and paper and I'll tell you.

"touched" mean I got an update from the USCIS. It tells you that they working on your case.

According to the people in the Oct filer thread, it takes 2 to 6 days from when the checks are cashed to when NOAs arrive.
Also remember, the post office was off last Wed, so no need to worry at this moment.

BTW, I can't get any check images online.
Usually by logging in to my bank's web site I can see an image for a check that has been cashed, but somehow the two checks I sent to USCIS don't have an image, and the check numbers are both 0.
If an image is available, there should be a receipt number written on it.
So, maybe you can check if the check images are available for you.

THANK YOU! I actually printed the cheques out yesterday as soon as I saw they'd been cashed - just to keep in case I need them. Didn't think to look - but now that you mention it, there is the MSC number, plain as day!

That may or may not be your actual receipt number. Mine was off by 2 or 3. Just wait, you should get your NOAs by the end of the week.

Well, it's a 13 digit code with MSC at the start - but it didn't work. Actually the numbers were different on each cheque, but neither worked.

Guess I'll just have to be patient.

No its not, the numbers on the checks are temporary. For me, the MSC number on the check (13 digits) ended with 65 and 66 (for 485, 130) but my receipt numbers were off by 2, 3 and 5. This has happened for me (and others) with previous filings.
 
Looks like almost all the application sent earlier this month have been started processing by INS, at least checks got cleared. Now let's hope we can get FP notice asap.

Hi Josss78!

Just wondered why your DO is Albany? If you in NYC wouldn't it be Federal Plaza? I'm interested because Albany is my DO too, LOL!
 
Still no NOA today :(

But I did get my green return receipt card back - it has the delivery date a day earlier than the USPS (who had it being delivered on Sunday Nov 8th, which looked weird anyway).
