[Caliwale]

Irishoxford Yes i also called them yesterday..... they said same thing to me and they said what they have is the case which they sent me as rejected on march 13 but i refilled the case so they do not have my refiled case in system

Irishoxford once you get any update from uscis, please update here because our received date for concurrent filling package in uscis is the same .

Well that's hopefully good news for the both of us. I've seen NOA texts within a few days for credit cards, but cheques seem to take 7-10 days in a lot of cases to get cashed and NOAs sent out via text.

I'll let you know the moment I hear anything.

Irishoxford you sent payment by checks?

Hello,

Thanks for creating this thread. I originally had sent my application on 2/24 but it got rejected because of outdated I-465 form so I resubmitted again last week and here's my timeline so far:

3/16: Package sent to USCIS Chicago Lockbox
3/17: Package received by USCIS
3/20: Credit Card charged
3/24: NOA texts

How long did you wait for the letter of rejection? Have the same mistake.

How long did you wait for the letter of rejection? Have the same mistake.

Took about 3 weeks from (me) sending to receiving back the rejected package.

Okay! Thanks!

Hi,

I'm currently student with F-1 and just got my EAD card 2 weeks ago. I have 90 days to find a job with my OPT.
Unfortunately, coronavirus situation affects every business and I can't find a job. What can I do?
Can I submit an extension request regarding unfortunate situations with coronavirus?
If you can guide me I would greatly appreciated because I don't know what to do but it looks like It's very hard to find a job during this crisis.

Honesty, I think looking for job is the only thing you can do right now

Hello,

I think I have almost the same timeline as Irishoxford and Caliwale. I haven't heard anything from USCIS yet. Here is my timeline:

03/24 - Package sent to USCIS via Fedex.
03/25 - Package received and signed by USCIS.

I think you posted in the wrong topic. For OPT, the only way is applying anywhere you can. I found my OPT job before using this website: https://www.myvisajobs.com/. Hope this will help.

Yep. I’ve still heard nothing. Partly relieved I’m not the only one (as my fear is a second rejection due to mistaken filing!) Feel sorry for the lockbox workers in Chicago though - seemed to be a slowdown after March 20th.

Yes, I hope there will be some good news soon.
