have not received acceptance notice

Hi,

I sent my mother's AOS concurrent application to Carol Stream, IL PO box. It was delivered on May 21st. I have not received any letter from USICS. I have been through this process back in 2017. I got my notice of acceptance with 3 weeks. Has anyone experience this delay now?

Hi,

It sounds like you're feeling some understandable concern about the delay. Given that your mother’s AOS (Adjustment of Status) application was delivered on May 21st and you still haven’t received a notice of acceptance from USCIS, it could be a sign of longer processing times, which have been a bit more common lately. Many people are experiencing delays due to backlogs and increased demand, particularly after the pandemic.

Typically, receipt notices are sent out within 30 days, but delays up to 60 days aren’t uncommon these days. Since you've been through this process before in 2017, you probably already know to check if the payment for the filing fee has been processed, as that can be an indicator that the application is being handled.

If you don’t receive any communication soon, it might be worth contacting USCIS directly or checking their case processing times online. Some users have reported that calling USCIS for an update or using tools like their online portal has helped them get a better idea of what’s going on.

I hope this helps and that you receive an update soon!
