Hello, I came across this thread when I was looking for answers..

 

I applied for ROC on June 20th 2020 had my biometrics in July 2021. My status changed "as for September 2021 case is ready to be scheduled for an interview). Since then I only received an extension letter in December 2020 for 2 years - but it will expire in September of this year.

 

I was hopeful that my case would have been through by then, but September is around the corner and I am about to start a new job and buy a house, so I do not want any issues because of the expiration date. 

How do I extend my status? Thank you :)

Hi @Nanestern, my husband is in the exact same boat—extension letter expires end of September. Have you had any progress with your case?

Hi all,

 

A little update from me.

 

I went to a local Social Security office to remove the restriction on my SS card. I had my driver's license with me and a bunch of other documents, but the clerk only looked at my DL and the extension letter (it was still valid for about 20 more days). He had no problem issuing a new SS card for me, and I got it in the mail a week later. If you have your unrestricted SS card and a valid ID, that's all your employer needs for employment. 

 

As far as my inquiry to USCIS (I followed an inquiry link on their website back in July, I think, because my case is outside of the processing times), I never heard anything back.

 

Today, I randomly checked my status and I got an update! It says, "As of October 18th 2022, fingerprints were taken". Obviously, I didn't provide new fingerprints, so they must've attached them back from when I got my conditional green card in 2018. I hope it means they're working on my case!

Anybody else get a notice about fingerprints recently?

Update:

 

Extension letter has expired, case status still says waiting for interview. We got an InfoPass appointment after calling twice, then when my husband went to the field office for the appointment, they told him they would have given him a passport stamp but his passport is expired. So now he’s working on that.

 

If anyone else is in the same boat, if your passport is still valid, call USCIS and ask for an InfoPass appointment to get a passport stamp, let us know how it goes!

The case finally has an update!!! “New Card Is Being Produced”

 

We got a text and email today that the card is being produced and will be mailed in the next 30 days. It looks like they waived the interview at last. Hoping for quick resolutions for everyone else still waiting.

Have you tried submitted this form?

e-Request - Outside Normal Processing Time - Case Status Online

 

We submitted this 09/12/2022 and got case approved 11/23/2022.

 

edit: I agree this is truly ridiculous. It’s like our applications disappeared into a black hole…

Visit this page: USCIS Contact Center and click “In-Person Services” and you should see the phone number to call. Ask the automated system for an appointment or say “InfoPass” to talk to a person.

Update:  We received a letter a week ago stating we are scheduled for an interview in Atlanta next month.  We had an AOS interview about 5 years ago. Didn’t expect another one for ROC. At least there is movement after almost 3 years!

KrispyKringle, I did and after submitting it they told me I am not outside of the processing time?! It will be 3 years in June!

 

i did call USCIS and asked for an info pass appointment in July (my 2 year extension letter was expiring in September 2022) and I got an appointment in December 2022.  I received a stamp in my passport for another extension of 1 year. Is this why they say I am not outside of the processing time?
