Sacramento Timeline

I have just started the application process.

The details are below:

DO: Sacramento, CA

08/17/2009: sent application (by Priority Mail) to Phoenix AZ at 10:30a.m.
08/20/2009: mail has been delivered to the Phoenix facility at 10:50 a.m.

As the process goes on, I will keep updating the info.

In retrospect, I guess I should have use the express mail - I would have saved one or two days. I heard some (unsubstantiated) rumors that they do not pick up the express mail every day, so it ends to be as fast to send the mail by normal or Priority service.

Congrats.
I still havent received my FP letter. You mentioned you got the email the same day I did - the email told me a letter was sent Aug 21.
I will see if I get it tomorrow, otherwise I will make infopass- guess my mail is lost.

Can you tell when you mail was actually mailed?

Phew!!

i got the letter in my mail today. Thanks for the reply.

Its weird, I looked at when the letter was mailed and the zip code it was mailed from.
It was mailed aug 24 ( at least thats what the pitnet bowes stamp says). The place is only 500-600miles max from my place.
Maybe they put prepaid stamp and mailed it much later?
Beats me why it took 7 days to reach,

Also the email i received mentions the notice date as Aug 21. But actually on 797, the notice date is 24th.
 
Hi, new_LPR and hussamk,

It looks that we are in the same boat- I guess that I sent my applications a few days after you did. Please, if you don't mind, post your time lines.

Good luck.

new_LPR,

Did you get any update at your case after finishing FP (by the way when you did it?).

it looks like only fine&jadwin, you and me from Sacramento at this Forum.


My FP done on August 29th and no update so far. I am not sure if Sacramento DO is busiest DO or my name is stuck somewhere. even my wife didn't get her status updated. I can see alot of People receiving their IL at other DO

no update yet. I got my FP notice 10 days after they mailed it (weird) thats why I was worried.
I got FP done on 9/3.
 
Hi guys,

My 2 cents...

If hussamk's wife got her FP done on Aug 29th, it seems reasonable to expect an IL for her soon. I mean, even in the worst case scenario that hussamk is stuck in ther name check (which, at this point, does not seem to be likely) since the name check for females is easier, she probably should have finished it by now.

I and my wife did fingerprints together last Friday. When I applied for the green card in 2002, I was stuck in the name check for 20 months. My wife's name check was done in six days. Now, the FBI says that they do all name checks in at most three months. This is certainly an improvement if it is indeed the case.

Of course, I hope that nobody will have to deal with this process at all.
 
Still no IL letters. The positive news is that my FBI name check was completed on September 16th. It took 12 days to complete it. The FP results were sent back to USCIS on September 11th. I have not asked about my wife's name check status.

Cheers.
 
Hi, Sacramento filers,

Sorry for cross-posting. I have created a separate thread for this message. However, for completeness, I also post it here since it might of interest for future Scarmento filers.

Cheers.

I wonder if anybody have experienced a similar situation. I and my wife applied for naturalization in August (NOA date 08/20/2009.) We submitted our fingerprints on 09/11. There have been no updates since then. The message still says that on 09/03 RFEs (read FP notes) were sent.
However, our I-485 petitions approved in September 2004 got the new LUD yesterday. Now, the LUD for them says 10/03/2009.

If you have seen something like this, please share. Thanks!
