Default Processing Times Online

Does anyone know roughly how long before you can check the processing times online?
I got the I-1797C on November 4th and it said I could check online using my receipt number. I have been trying every few days since I got it but every time it says 'Your case cannot be found at this time'. Im sure its just they have a lot to put on the system but I just dont want there to be any problems or delays!
Thanks.

Hi fluffy,

I think you should be able to check your status immediately. A similar problem occured with mine a few months ago, each time I tried to review my case I used to get the same response until I tried entering the receipt number without the dashes (-).
Make sure you type it all in capital letters, without any gaps or dashes. Hopefully this might work for you

Thanks for replying so quick!
I have tried it without the dashes and made sure the letters are in capitals & the numbers are correct but it still doesnt work. Now Im starting to get worried! Do you think I should contact them?

Unfortunately that was my only idea.

I wouldn't be too worried at this stage. You have confirmation stating that your petition has been received by USCIS and that is the important thing. Being unable to check your online status is an inconvenience. Perhaps the online system is down or experiencing problems. Its still quite early to be checking your status, I expect it will take a fair few months before you hear anything else.

Remember, if there are any problems with your paperwork or they require more information then you will be contacted by USCIS.
I'm not sure if you can phone to enquire about your problem, maybe someone on this forum who is more knowledgeable than myself will offer advice...

Checking the online processing times is the first step on the road to madness. I believe EJ3 is incorrect - it sometimes takes many weeks before your case status is available online.

No.
