Status Termination Notice Was Mailed

[CPGallgher 0]

So I enetred the US as a permanenet resident in February 2014.

I had an i-551 in my UK passport and was told to apply for a permanent green card to replace it which I did. I was told the process could take up to 6 months.

6 months rolled by and I didn't recieve it.

I filed an 1-90 to replace a green card card that was never recieved.

I recieved an i797 that it had been recieved on October 20th.

I then checked in on it's application status and recieved this.

Status Termination Notice Was Mailed

On December 5, 2014, we mailed you a notice for Receipt Number XXXXXXXXXXXXXX, terminating your status. The notice explains the reasons for our action. Please follow the instructions in the notice. If you do not receive your notice by January 4, 2015, please go to www.uscis.gov/e-request to request a copy of the notice. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

I followed up and apperntly this literally means my status as a permenent resident is being or has been temrinated.

I'm still wating on the notification in the mail and on hold trying to climb up the USCIS ladder for information.

I'm utterly bewildrered does anyone have any ideas why this may have been sent.

You should go make an infopass with your local USCIS to talk to a real person

I've tried to make an appointment and but every field office I try and book it with gives me "There are no appointments available.

I imagine I'll get more info when the notice arrives but I intend to camp outside the local USCIS office when it opens at 7am Monday. Still holding on the line having asked to escalate the issue.

Ask to speak to Tier 2 person.

Does anyone know how loing they stay open till I'm still on hold with them.

Thanks that was very useful.

It seems that all they could say was that the notice was sent from the NBC there system had no information uipon the reasoning which will arrive with the Notice.

We shall have to wait it seems.

I'll call again just incase the system updates.

You did not speak to a tier 2 it sounds like?

[CPGallgher 0]

They identified themselves as a tier 2 employee and and officer. I got their name but not their number of which they said they had none.

It seems I'm effectively stuck until this notice of action arrives but I intend to keep at them on the help line.

Is there anyway I can guaruntee I'm speaking to a tier 2 employee. I don't believe I was lied to but it does seem inconsistent with what I have read.

How did you apply for a green card? What steps, forms ?? I am curious mostly because I didn't know you had to do an application process.

[NikLR 13,232]

So you paid the ELIS fee? $165? What does your ELIS say?

Ohhh--I see. When he said he applied for a card, he meant paid the fee.

I dunno. To me it sounds like he tried adjusting status, given he was told it would take 6 months.

OP, if that's true then you were misinformed by somebody. When you arrive on a CR-1 or IR-1, the I-551 IS your Green Card for up to a year while you wait for your actual Green Card to arrive. To get that card, you pay the ELIS fee, you do not adjust status (you already have the status upon entering).

Can you clarify what you did? What forms you filed?

Well it looks like someone entered the wrong code for my reciept status. I just recieved notice that my card was returned to sender.

It was my i-90 request for a replacement that was terminated.

It's being resent from Texas, trying to make sure I have tracking so I can be there to recieve it.

Basically they just decided to give me a heart attack by entering that my permanent resident status had beed terminated rather than my i-90 case.

Thanks for everyone who rallied round to try and get to the bottom of it.
