I just got a email notification informing me that our case was updated. And when I checked our case online, it says: " New card is Being Produced"😊🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Timeline:

WAC/ California services center 

October 31st 2018: sent package 

November 05th 2018: package received 

August 16th 2019: Biometrics 

January 28th 2020: Card is ordered 

Total of almost 15 months. I'm glad that we didn't file the N400 while the i751 was still pending. Now we can take care of it. 

 

I pray for everyone still waiting. Patience, prayers and Visualisation. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Congratulations mine took just about 15months too

N-400 interview scheduled! 

• For those of you who had combo interview, how did you find out that you had both interviews the same day?
• For those of you who applied for N-400 while I-751 pending. Was you I-751 approved before or after the n-400 interview notice?

I am hoping to have a combo interview or to have my I-751 approved before the interview.

I did have my I-751 transferred to "local office", so I think that is the same office that is doing my N-400 interview.

What is your local office? It's really depend on the local office.

If they are fast at adjudicating the i751 combined with the N400, you'll likely have a combo interview since your i751 was already transferred to them.

Some offices like Seattle WA are really slow. Sometimes they interview the N400 only and can't approve the I-751 for another couple of months, so it gets pretty messy.

 

But based on how quickly you got scheduled for your interview and your i751 is already transferred (that's the hard part, getting it transferred from NBC to local office), it's likely that you'll have a combo interview. 

I'd recommend you to get prepared for both anyway. It's better to have all your documents for both cases than be surprised, unless if they approve i751 before. And have your Spouse with you if possible. 

 

Good luck and keep us updated 😊

Hey guys, we got an RFE from USCIS SRC saying that we filed late and must provide a reason for late filing. My conditional card expired on January 10, 2019, and they received our I-751 on November 06, 2018. 
 

We did get our NOA very late, in February 2019, but the receipt date was still correct.
 

This means we filed within the 90-day window, right? I just want to make sure I am not crazy 😕

What is the receipt date on your extension? 

You need to write a letter explaining your 90 days window and summarizing your timeline and add a copy of your expired green card + copy of your extension letter with highlighted dates.

There must be a mistake on their account.

Thanks for your response, @Malauriea! The extension receipt date is November 2, but the date the extension was issued was really late - in March 2019. I wonder if the officer looked at the wrong date?

 

I will send back a letter explaining that this must be a misunderstanding and enclose my expired green card, extension letter, a 120-day notice from September 2018 stating that I should submit I-751 within 90 days of January 2019, and a UPS notice showing that USCIS received my package November 2.

 

Do you think I need to consult with or add a lawyer for this? It seems like an obvious misunderstanding on the part of USCIS and should not require a lawyer, but the fact that they consider my case to be filed late stresses me out.
