Sorry to hear that. I think you need to check online status with your receipt number right away in case you didn't sign up for the automatic email update there. If that is the same, call the customer service and bug them. Lastly contact your congressman's office and complain LOUD. However, there is still a chance NSC is still processing a small number of I751 cases. But you need to have your congressman inquire to make sure. Don't let them get off the hook easy...so I learned.

Just back from my day in Chicago. I got my stamp in around 25 minutes. She snipped the corner of my greencard to make it invalid but gave it back to me. There were a lot of angry petitioners.
One guy was having a yelling match with one of the immigration officers (who was giving back as good as she was getting) and had to be hauled away by the Chicago police but returned later on. I had no problems, got my stamp and asked if they had any more info on my case but nothing only that it was at CSC now to speed things up.
Good news. thanks for posting - I'm going there next week for the same thing.
I got One year stamp today from Chicago Office.Lady told It is good for one year or till CSC Process my case.

Just FYI for the group, my wife checked her status online this morning and sure enough, her claim was transfered from Nebraska to God knows where. I assume California? We have yet to get an email or snail mail notification of this. Jenny, our claim is 12 months in, and we were about to contact the senator after the 27th. Since you are well beyond 12 months, you should consider talking to your senator.

So much for Ombudsman!!!!
The highlights of their letter is they got on-line, checked my wife's case status dated March 27, 2007, learned her case was at NSC and they are processing cases on or before July 5, 2006 and her case is within the normal processing times, so they cannot assist her.
They go on to say their prime goal is to clear identity problems and to formulate recommendations to improve the USCIS service.
And they hope that we found this information helpful. Signed by Michael Dougherty.

Im right with you, NickD. The reason my wife and I stay, the
only reason, is to get a 10 year green card or passport. My wife is from Ukraine, so her ability to travel with her current passport is severely limited. One aspect you may consider is attempting to get a job overseas. This will allow you to file an expedited N-400 request.
QUOTE(NickD @ Apr 3 2008, 05:30 AM)
This thread is about removing conditions on residency that assumes the I-751 application, a burden put on us to assure to the USCIS that a US citizen did not marry an alien immigrant for the sole purpose of bringing that immigrant into this country.
So there are two parties involved, the US citizen and the alien immigrant, from reading other posts here, never sure who is posting is what!
When I met my wife, at first we developed a very strong platonic relationship, became for good friends and learned we had a very strong physical attraction as well, we knew we wanted to spend the rest of our lives together. I am the US citizen, she is the alien immigrant, and she had a daughter that also required a working relationship that was between just her and me. In other words, could we be a family.
We had a short discussion, key factor is that we all wanted to live together, but in her country or mine? As she was from Colombia with her family in that country, no relatives in Venezuela, and I have a very huge family here, we mutually agreed that she and her daughter would come here. Point is, this is my country, born here, served my country, and been paying taxes for years. So just natural that I handle the immigration details, I feel now that I am fighting to keep my family. So I took it upon myself to learn all about the procedure, this was done before we were married, I certainly was no expert in marrying an alien immigrant as the I-751 assumes. Also decided with the very poor grammar used in the immigration forms and that the very expensive fees for all the applications could be lost with one error to hire the best immigration law firm that I could find.
I just enlisted the aid of my wife in typing in those foreign kind of addresses to make sure they were accurate, an interesting note, the downloadable forms from the USCIS force you to use a fixed over sized font where you cannot fit everything in that small box they provide. The forms I received from my law firm let you reduced the size of the font so you could fit everything in and still very readable, but they were the same identical forms provided by the USCIS.
With all this jazz about the I-751, I took it upon myself to contact my congressman, senator, the USCIS, the Ombudsman form, after all, I am the US citizen. In our interviews, I did most of the talking just keeping my big mouth shut when questions were directed to either my wife or daughter.
If a law was broken by me marrying an alien immigrant just to bring her into this country, well, she would be deported and I would be in prison, so not only fighting for her, but actually fighting for myself. I am the assumed guilty party here trying to prove my innocence that seems to be just the opposite of what our US Constitution dictates.
With some of the hardships imposed, my wife and I have already discussed moving to a different country where both of us will be welcomed. Seems ironic to receive a form that both my wife and daughter received in separate envelops addressed to each, Welcome to the USA! Then to have to go through this entire procedure again, isn't this a flat contradiction? First, they are welcomed, then put in a position to prove that they are welcomed?
This entire procedure seems crazy to me and contradicts everything I learned about this country, and a country where I was forced to put my life down to defend. I never asked anything from my country, on the other hand gave everything to this country and never received anything in return. But I did ask my country if I could bring the woman of my most wildest dreams here, and her daughter, they told me it would cost me so much, and that I can, and told me how I can do it, and I said, okay. And I paid the price.
This whole I-751 and the problems and stress it has caused really has me asking, is it really worth staying here? We are talking about the most valuable entity here, my wife. My anger is high, but I keep that to myself and attempt to use logic and reasoning. Also not particularly fond that a number of our most recent leaders are draft dodgers and claim to be patriots of this once great country. My dad wasn't even around to send me to Harvard to avoid the draft.
The battle to keep my wife here is my battle, not hers, and I feel for those here that have to take steps to stay here instead of their US citizen spouses. My wife comes before this country, and whatever it takes, even leaving it, I am prepared to do. I feel that I have been let down by my country. And why in the hell do they get Veterans Day off?

I already did. He's liason says that my case is already at CSC. This is probably true, due to my filing of the N-400 to CSC in January (I have lived in California since April -07). I have also filed 2 useless service requests. Now I'm waiting for the citizenship interview letter. I have more or less given up on the I-751.

Hello,
I did Service Request on Jan.31, 2007.
On 01/28/2008 you, or the designated representative shown below,
contacted us about your case. Some of the key information given to us at
that time was the following:
Caller indicated they are:
-- Applicant or Petitioner
Attorney Name:
-- Information not available
Case type:
-- CRI89
Filing date:

Receipt #:
xxxxxxxxxx
Beneficiary (if you filed for someone else):
-- Information not available
Your USCIS Account Number (A-number):
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Type of service requested:
-- Non-Delivery of Permanent Resident Card
The status of this service request is:
Our records indicate that we have not scheduled you an interview
appointment. Your case is currently in suspense until the interview date.
Please follow any instructions on that notice.
Any idea if this means interview soon? I am leaving to Japan for training in June for 3 weeks and I am affraid they will schedule interview at that time.

"Our records indicate that we have not scheduled you an interview

I read that as if they haven't done anything. They have not schedule an interview, and they don't say they are going to, but infer that your case is in suspense until the interview date. The only thing I gather from that, is that your case is in suspense, aren't all of ours?
Also from my e-mail:
"If you have questions or concerns about your application or the case status
results listed above, or if you have not received a decision from USCIS within
the current processing time listed*, please contact USCIS Customer Service at
(800) 375-5283."
The link they give for learning your case status is "www.uscis.gov
under Case Status and Processing Dates", but kind of fail to indicate which service center our case is at.
I feel our responses are called getting the runaround. ( Deception, usually in the form of evasive excuses.)

When I called the automated thing from the 800 number, it said please wait 180 days from the time of the transfer to contact us about the case.
Some people mentioned about cases being moved to their local offices perhaps, none of the offices in my area process the I-751 and the I was on Wednesday that my case was in the CSC my an immigration official when getting my stamp on passport.

My case was "touched" on April 1st and 2nd.
Nick, basically, when you check your status online and you see a new date in the last update section, "something" was done to your case. I believe that they update simply every time they move it from one end of the desk to another - but eventually, one of those "touches" hopefully means someone is actually looking at your petition...

Nick, ok, I go to
https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/index.jsp, and actually
log in (you would create a "customer" account). That's where you can also set up email notification etc. for your case.
Once you log on, your case is listed right there and there is a column called "last updated". That's where I see 4/2/2008 and for the longest time it had 3/9/2007. You can't go back and check past dates for updates; you will only see the last date someone updated your case.
Hope this helps!

Apr 4 2008, 12:36 PM
Thanks Illinois, never did check in there, and I see when members state their case was touched, they actually mean when it was Last Updated.
"* Note on "Last Updated" date:
Your case may have a new "Last Updated" date and you may receive an Email Notification of your case being updated, without the status of the case changing. This is due to internal USCIS processing being performed on your Case. This will be reflected in the "Last Updated" date, but may not result in a different status message"
Likewise our date is also 04/02/2008.
We will be in Chicago, the 21st of this month, not for the USCIS, but to update my wife's and daughters foreign passport, looks like the way things are going with the USCIS, they will need them. And then probably another trip to St. Paul.
I love my wife, she always has a positive outlook on life, looking forward to seeing Chicago and St. Paul again, and when I showed her that letter from Ombudsman, she said, good, I have even more proof for my employer that we are doing everything we can.

I noticed several folks here have said they filed their N-400 and think maybe that has something to do with their I-751 being moved to CSC (or wherever we think they went!). My husband hasn't filed his N-400 yet, but it seems a lot of us in about the same time frame were touched and moved together. All we've received so far is just that one email, nothing like some of you got. In any case he'll be filing for naturalization shortly, as he is also severly limited as to where he can travel because of where his passport is from....

I have to agree. I never filed N-400 but my case got transferred somewhere... hopefully not a new black hole!
At any rate I'm hoping to god I hear something soon, I kind of have a conundrum... . I need to renew my passport but my extension letter expires next month so I'm afraid if I send in my current passport now it won't get back in time to be stamped. So, this means I need to get a stamp in my current passport, but if I get the stamp in my current passport I can't send it in with my application to be renewed because I'd need it with me as it would be my only proof of legallity to live and work here... BUT if I don't send in my passport to be renewed somewhat soon, it'll expire and will be no good anyway, stamp or not and then where does that leave me...
Please USCIS help me out here!

Apr 5 2008, 05:53 AM
From what I read on the net, the USCIS has a long tradition of extremely slow processing times with the I-751 and some that have applied for US citizenship, actually received their citizenship before getting their ten year permanent resident card.
Maybe someone can explain to me why they call it a permanent card when it comes with either a two or a ten year expiration date.
We send in our N-400 for my wife exactly one week ago, I already have the canceled check in my hand, somebody wrote on the front of my check a LIN number with only seven digits that the case status won't accept. Maybe we will get something in the mail, again, this is my first time at doing this. But I know they got their money.
Like the rest of you, getting an extension for travel and work authorization is of prime concern for now. But who should really be concerned? With my wife working with my earned income shooting us into a higher tax bracket, between FICA, federal, and local taxes, they already received an extra $80,000.00 in revenue that they will lose if she doesn't have her work authorization. You would think they would hand her a new card on a silver platter.
kearinne, you mentioned sending your passport in for that stamp, can you mail these in for that? Thought you had to make a trip to your assigned field office. Not that I would trust them with any important documents, especially through the mails.
Not sure what's going on now between the USA and Canada, been driving up there all of my life, just like driving to the next town. Except for having a plant in the vehicle, they are real touchy about that, with the winds, why aren't they stopping nature from blowing seeds back and forth across that man made line?
They invented globalization and at the same, made those map drawn lines much more critical, when you think about it, it's crazy.
And all this ado about a piece of paper, if the USCIS wants to play around, why can't they just send out a I-797c with two, three, four, five...etc. years extension typed on it, that way they won't feel pressured.

I called my local office and they said we can mail my wifes passport in for a 1 year extension stamp. We are authorized to do so on the 27th of April, 2008. It seems a fairly informal matter. That being said, I TOTALLY agree with you about USCIS passing out 3 to 5 year extension letters. I requested a 2 year extension and the local office refused, stating the maximum was 1 year at a time.
One of the Founding Fathers, I forget who, was asked what was the defining aspect of a police state. He thought about it and replied "When those that enforce the law exempt themselves from the law, you live in a police state". We see rules and regulations that we, the citizen, must follow explicitly when dealing with the USCIS upon threat of deportation, or worse.
Yet the USCIS is free to do what they want, when they want, for whatever reason they want, without consequence. Even if it means we and our families suffer or our hopes and dreams are ruined.
Sucks to be us.

kearinne, you mentioned sending your passport in for that stamp, can you mail these in for that? Thought you had to make a trip to your assigned field office. Not that I would trust them with any important documents, especially through the mails.
Not sure what's going on now between the USA and Canada, been driving up there all of my life, just like driving to the next town. Except for having a plant in the vehicle, they are real touchy about that, with the winds, why aren't they stopping nature from blowing seeds back and forth across that man made line?
No, what I mean is I need to mail in my passport to renew the passport. The passport expires this year and If I mail it in, I dont know how long it'll sit in Canada til they send me my new one. So, do I get the stamp now, hope I dont need it and mail in my passport to renew or do I send in the passport and hope to god I get it back in less than a month?
Oh and I can't drive to where I travel... My daughter is in Ottawa, Canada and I'm across country in Oregon, US... over 3k miles. Need to fly. Without passport it makes things a bit difficult. Also I'm wanting to change jobs soon... without extention stamp in a passport (or new greencard) dont think I can do that.

Good old USA State Department, took them 3 1/2 months to get me a US passport when it wasn't suppose to take over two weeks. Claimed the new passport requirements for Canada and Mexico caused them a jam, also that I needed a background check. I called them twice a day near the end, why a background check, my clerk of court already did that and it's on the application. Just all kinds of excuses, I paid the premium price, send me my passport, I was getting very angry. They also had a case status on-line that was a bad joke. I was suppose to leave on a Friday and they said it was finally mailed the Wednesday before, overnight, the stupid post office sent it to the wrong place. Talked to my post office general, she tracked it down and arranged special processing. I finally got my passport six hours before my flight was due to take off, and thank God, they didn't make any mistakes on it.
Heaven help you if you are two minutes late in paying your taxes.
I did get a letter back from my congressman with a promise that his office will do everything in their power to get my wife and daughter their valid green cards before the ending extension date. Should say my wife got that letter, for some reason, even though it was my signature at the bottom of that I-751 form, they prefer to talk to her. Hey, this is my family, and don't let me ever hear you guys talk about family values when you are running for re-election!
Also discussed with him the complete redundancy of the I-751 and we have another government agency telling us we are guilty of a major crime until we proof ourselves innocent? Where does the US Constitution fit into all of this?
Following that case on Tope Awe and her brother, where their parents came here in 1989 for medical treatment, and stayed and wondering how those two kids got that far. To enroll my daughter into high school, had to bring all kinds of proof she was going to be a permanent resident, same thing for her drivers license, and again now for her enrollment in college, again trying to explain why the USCIS is so slow. From what I hear, large cities like Madison and Milwaukee don't follow the law like the small towns do and the illegals that are hear, go down there for their drivers license. I spent a week faxing proof back and forth to our governors office just so my wife could get her license renewed. It took a direct order from our governors office to our local DMV to get her license renewed, then they treated her in a humanly fashion.
And why did I have to spend thousands of dollars to get all their documents translated into English when the USCIS has a Spanish speaking line? 50 bucks a sheet is the standard rate. And why could I travel to Venezuela and Colombia without a visa when it took my mother-in-law over a year to get a visa to visit us? Doesn't say much for a country that has a reported over 20 million illegals here that may even get amnesty.
What really tipped the scales is the EPA is no longer going to monitor the ammonia and hydrogen sulfide gas emissions from these animal over populated corporation farms. They also hire Mexicans to operate them are also exempt from the USCIS because they have less than three workers. They consider only the father to be the worker, his wife and kids are not, but they have to work. Not easy living in a country with a dual standard.
Stuff like this doesn't hit home until you experience it.

Get your application for your passport together, along with your photos asap. You can go to the Passport Canada site for Canadians living in the US
http://www.ppt.gc.ca/cdn/form.aspx?lang=eng®ion=USA and in the center, in red, is a place you can download the old passport form allowing you to us US guarantors who are in certain professions (ie. doctor, chiropractor, lawyer, etc.). The biggest delay is in getting a qualified guarantor if you do not have one in the area and have to send stuff away to them for signing. Make sure your photographs absolutely meet the right criteria - they are NOT like the US passport photos. Over half of all passport applications sent in from the US are denied because the photographs do not meet the necessary criteria. Most photography stores using a digital camera can print them on the Kodak image processor by turning the image sideways, then cutting the exterior down to the correct rectangular size. That is what I had done. Send your completed application by courier to the Passport Office (I also did that) and it is couriered back to you. I received my new passport back in less than 10 days just this past February. I was expecting it would take a while, but if the application is complete and correct and the photographs correct they can process them quickly. You do need to send in your expiring passport with the application along with your birth certificate and other identification.
Good luck.

First go around was professional passport photos, expensive and neither my daughter or wife liked how they turned out. But USCIS is making a bad habit for requiring new photos, so do it myself. Find a white wall in the house with a receptacle on the wall and plug in a 100 watt bulb that is about 18" above the floor place a 15" high stool two feet in front of that wall and have them sit down, switch on the auto flash and redeye reduction and the longer telephoto setting, about 135mm on my digital and take a number of shots from the breast up.
The telephoto does two things, very narrow focal range so the background is burred out, and keeping the flash far from the subject reduces redeye and washout.
Load that into my computer, let the girls pick out the picture they like, but I have the final say with zero shadows, eyes open, straight face directly at the camera, head not tipped up or down, no jewelry with all the passport photos requirements met.
I use CorelDraw 11 that let's me place a grid on top of the photo with a snap to feature, normally set that at 0.125". As passports want a 1 3/8" high face on a 2 by 2 inch photo, I simply count the grid lines from the top of the head to the chin, divide that by two and add that number of grids to the top of their heads, and the bottom of their chins splitting that number in half.. That 1 3/8" to 2" ratio is approximately 2/3, cutting that in half is 1/3 and again, 1/6th.
So if I count say 20 grids, that should leave ten extra grids for the top and bottom of the head, or five up and five down, I crop that part of the picture out and save that as a new file. Open that file and resize that to 2 by 2", the width is the same number of grids as the height using the resample with corel and 216 dpi resolution.
Make a new file with also 216 dpi 6 by 4" and a one inch snap to grid and copy and paste that photo six times, grid lock aligns the photos perfectly as fast as I can hit control V. E-mail that off to Walgreens, and next trip by, pick up that photo for 19 cents. Typical high quality film only had 150 dpi resolution, get very crystal clear pictures, no rejects yet. Can do the above ten times quicker that it took me to type this.

Maybe someone can explain to me why they call it a permanent card when it comes with either a two or a ten year expiration date.
I always assumed that the permanent means us as people and not the card itself since we actually live here. We are permanent in as much that we don't have any plans on leaving the country (for more than a vacation at least). Even with a 2 year green card we are permanent residents. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

"WORD HISTORY of the word permanent: In this world of impermanence it seems that we have tried to hold on to a few things at least by using the word permanent. Coming ultimately from the present participle perman¶ns of Latin perman¶re, “to endure,” Middle English permanent (first recorded around 1425) also had to do with the enduring and the stable. When we consider some of the applications of this adjective, as in permanent press, permanent tooth, we are struck by the relative evanescence of the so-called permanent. But perhaps never more so than in the case of the permanent wave. When asked what this phenomenon was, one journalist wrote in 1932, “(so far as my experience goes): a wave that is anything but permanent.”
a wave that is anything but permanent
In like manner, a card that is anything but permanent
Another word I feel is grossly misused is the word freedom, from the time I was born, forced day care, 13 years of mandatory schooling, and 6 years of military service. I was already 24 years age before I had the first choice of what I could do with my life, and not even trained how to make a choice. But certainly not free to drive 26 mph in a 25 mph zone, and not free to spend the money I earned the way I wanted, the government already took a huge hunk out of it. And have to walk a very narrow line, deviate just a little and will end up in a prison.
And while we came to have a democracy in our government, we certainly do not have a democracy in our dictatorship corporate structure, had to be where I was told to go, when to go, when to come back, when I could use the restroom, eat, how to conduct myself, how to dress, and even when I could lay down and rest. In the military was more afraid of my superiors than the enemy, they could have me shot if I didn't fight. No choice there, either kill or be killed.
Should call the permanent resident card a Survival Card, without a valid one, can't work, that is, if you can find a job since our government is exporting all of our jobs to a country that is planning on taking over us.

I didn't have any travel plans when I got my extension stamp. The USCIS officer asked me, however, after my passport was stamped and before it was handed to me if I was planning to travel. I answered No, but added that I need the stamp to get into some ITAR facilities of my company.
I went to the office close to the end of my written proof of residentship (actually I went the first business day afterwards), to make it more difficult for them to deny the stamp with the explanation that the card might come before the extension letter expired. I had read through the memorandum at least twice (check the memo attached to this thread), and I was prepared for their questions, because the memo mentioned the need for job and travel. It doesn't mention documents needed to show the need, but, if asked, you should answer something along the lines that you are looking at another job or at some travel plans - you should actually look on a job or a travel plan for that, but you don't have to go through with it. Be self-confident when speaking to them but not aggressive and ask for a supervisor if they deny a 12 months stamp. They have delayed the process, and you shouldn't be forced to get to their district office for another year.

Congratulation to both DEE and Peter, Hopefully they get to ours,
Quick question was there anyhint that you guys got approved from the CSC, also I do not want to receive emails from USCIS so when I put my application number and check case status -let s say they approve it- will i see that or do I have to request email notification in order for me to know or just by putting the receipt number is enough.
Thank you guys and I am so happy for you

There is no indication that it was from CSC, but I am sure its not from Nebraska, they don't move this fast.

Approval added for dee and Peter T. And yet they do move!
Stamp added for Illinois 77.
Yea, congrats to you, too. After reading your post, I went to check my online status again. No change there. I have booked tickets for my trip overseas in May. Keep my finger crossed for all these documents I have to carry: the expired PRC, the extension letter, and the stamp!

Is the stamp you mentioned a I-551 stamp, in your passport or on a I-94(?) form? Then you wouldn't need to carry the expired PRC and the extension letter with you anymore, the stamp replaces both of them.

Does anyone know why when we check process dates online The I-751 is highlighted in yellow and other forms are in green, I am getting so desesperate about this I-751 process and I can't even call cause i am sure the customer service representative will not know what center it was sent too, they read from the computer same as we do

the colours on the screen don't mean anything, other than to differentiate the forms from each other --as you go down the list, as the form number changes, the colour changes.
