Hi everyone,
I am married to a USC. I filed my AOS package (i130, i485, i756, i131, i1944, i864 and i130A) to Chicago lockbox June 30th 2020. I received notice of action July 14th 2020 with receipt number and that biometric fee along with application fee has been accepted and cashed. I received July 28th RFE for i864 and responded to this which was received August 7th 2020. It is almost end of January 2021 now and I have not received anymore update from USCIS. I have not even received a biometric appointment. Does anyone have a similar timeline?

Any June filers who got EAD?

[RayCal]

Filed AOS packet on June 5, 2020. FINALLY!!! After 2 expedite requests, 2 Service Requests, 2 calls with Tier 2 Officers and another half a dozen calls and chats with Emma. I received this I-765 update today, Card is being Produced.

My previous job offer expired but I am fortunate the employer was willing to wait and issued an updated job offer for the 2nd expedite request. The recent request went fairly fast, filed on January 25 and approved today. To those that are still waiting, hang in there and just keep trying to get your cases moving. Trust that efforts will eventually pay-off!!!

Here's my updated timeline:

Filed June 1st have an interview in Louisville at that end of April. Not sure why they switched us from Cincinnati where we got the biometrics done to Louisville. We are happy that it was so short to get the interview. We never received EAD's for our kids. So we have to wait until we get the green cards to get SSN"s and file our taxes.
