    Hey there! Thanks for posting the thread. heres my timeline

    04/21 - Sent texas lockbox
    05/01 - Returned for using outdated form
    05/04 - resent with correct form to Chicago lockbox
    05/11 - receipt of package - got paper receipt in mail 5/13
    (didn’t realize until this time that we could file i131 and i765 WITH our i485 documents)
    05/20 - sent i131 and i765 to Chicago lockbox

    my son is at home in Canada and I’m trying to get back there to be with him as soon as possible - so any cautionary advice at this time or encouragement is much appreciated.

          I-485, I-131,I-765 for me & my wife. Category F3 (I-130 approved 2010)
          All Paper filings
          1st filing April 6th at Chicago Lockbox
          Result: Rejected May 2nd by Texas Service Center as "incorrectly filed" due to Priority Date not current according to TSC
          Refiled : May 7th at the Chicago Lock Box along with the Adjustment of Status Chart published by USCIS in May 2020 showing our Priority Date is current & visa numbers are available.
          As of May 22nd, no response from Chicago Lock Box
          I called USCIS today: they cannot find my application in the system yet.
          no checks cashed yet & therefore no receipt notices yet.
          Still waiting & praying for USCIS to accept our petitions.
          we have been struggling on H1-B/H4 visa for the past 13 years.

              Update:

              6/2: Received a rejection notice for I-485/I-765/I-130 because of missing I-944/I-864. I-140 was accepted and check was cashed only for I-140.

              I checked with my attorney when I filed this application, and he said I-944 is not needed because we are filing under employment category.
              Can somebody shed some light on this?

                I’m not a lawyer but I’m very surprised your attorney did suggest that you don’t need form I-944 when you filed after February 24, 2020. You definitely need that!

                  If your I-140 was approved before, then I-944 is no needed.

                    you should damp your lawyer. He/she does not know jack. There very specific group of people who are exempts from filing I -944 and you are definitely NOT one of them.

                    06/03 Rejected again-same reason
                    06/13 Resubmitted with I-864
                    07/07 Lockbox emailed back and ask to resubmit
                    07/09 Filings accepted with PD 05/08/20 (nice)
                    08/06 Prior biometrics applied to I485
                    08/28 Took biometrics for I-765 only

                      When it is your PRIORITY DATE on your approval? Your priority date is normally before your approval date. Visa is only available for DEC 15,2008 PD to adjust your status per the May bulletin. I sent mine because my PD is DEC 7, 2008. They have rejected it for lack of I-864, which does not make sense because I have been working for over 16 years in the Country and earned my 40 qualifying quarters.

                            Hello! Thought I'd pool my experience so we can all try to navigate the timeline doing these crazy times. I'm waiting for my biometrics appointment, but I think the field office in Los Angeles is still closed, so I haven't received any update thus far.

                            F1 Married USC
                            I concurrently filed I-131, I-485,I-765, I-944

                            May 17 Mailed package to Chicago
                            May 20 Received by USCIS on May 20 ( Priority date)
                            May 27 Accepted Fingerprint fee for I-485
                            May 28 Texts for receipt
                            May 29 Checks cashed
                            June 1 NOA Received in mail for I-485, I-131, I-765, I-130

                              hi everyone,
                              filing for I-485, I-130, I-765, I-131 currently as well.

                              we filed everything ourselves and forgot the biometrics fee first time around- lost about a month time with the rejection and submission.
                              2nd time around:
                              May 19 Mailed package to Chicago
                              May 23 Received by USCIS
                              June 4 Checks cashed first then received texts for receipt at night
                              June 8 NOA Received in mail for I-485, I-130, I-765, I-131

                              also noted is we submitted 2 hard cover photo book with removable photos (clipped together so it was easy to remove)- both were sent back to us stating they are not in a format that can be placed in the file for review...
                              curious as to whether this happened to anyone else before and what formats did you all send in photo evidence?
