Congrats on the new card!

I think ure our first November fella 

 

wait feb 2031 is ten years from now- feb 2021

they give green card from when approved, not when applied. 

 

If the date is past 2031 and it is a 12 year card, I have never heard about it.

I’ll suggest u check with VJ in general- USCIS is prone to errors (see ppl get a 10 year card when it should be 2 years and vice versa, etc) and if it is an error, u def want to get this fixed sooner than later 

 

please keep us posted!

Okay thank you

That is REALLLLY fast for them to receive the packet and cash the check . Are you sure they are returning your other packet, and they didn't forward it to the correct place? They do that for many others.

We were wondering as well how quickly was it so my husband called the bank to find out which check was being processed by USCIS and it was the first check we sent. It means that our first packet finally came to AZ. The USCIS agent we talked last 1/25 told us that the first packet was denied and their going to send it back to our home address that’s why we sent a second packet on 1/28. Now, we have 2 packets in USCIS offices.We actually cancelled the first check and paid the cancellation fee and then made a new check for the second packet. Good thing is my husband was able to fix this just an hour ago and the bank didn’t charge us for canceling the 2nd check. At 2:30 pm the $680 finally taken from our bank. Sorry for the confusion. We have been contacting the USCIS about my first packet and no proper information I am getting.

Unbelievable!! We rely so much on the information they tell us, and that agent really dropped the ball giving you those details. I am so glad you were able to get it all cleared up.

I agree. I called them more than 15 times and even talked to a tier 2 representative.For months no proper answer to my questions about my 1st packet. My receipt starts with YSC...

They are dealing with delays due to covid19, they process close to or over a million cases at year. Imagine the amount of space they must need to store and process safely all those applications, some of them pretty large. Then if you send it to the wrong place they have to store it and eventually send it back, it takes time! It is probably sent to a shipping office, where they also send other items and mail and there is probably a queue there too. Most of the officers who answer phones must be in a call center and the information they can give you is limited on what they see. At this moment just for them to send the first noa takes in some cases over 2 months. Unfortunately there is nothing anyone can do, just wait and check, double check, triple check everything in your package before you send it.

I agree with you! There's so many people that submit their paperwork. And it's gonna be even more now that immigration is getting "easier" ..I can only imagine how much time it all takes. Especially if people send 1000 pages with their form. They all need to be scanned. 😅

What they need to start doing is letting more ppl apply online. This is just delaying everything and the US mail is not helping either. I waited for days and weeks for certain tax documents. Some didnt even reach me but I was able to download it.

We never got the biometrics letter, which we got no use for, but still. I would want to see if online applications for I-751 would have uploading limits for those 1000+ page filers. 🤭

I actually wanted to ask if people are getting biometrics waiver letters or not? I saw in October filers forum that they are?

Who even knows
It's like we saw them giving notifications for prior months- then it got to November and no one got a text-- then we started seeing texts 2 months after the fact.

 

it's a hot mess over there
I know it doesn't help but everyone should just strap on their pants and pack on some patience. lol

I think the best source is still our spreadsheet (not even prior months). Follow ur service center and see if anything is happening in the center around your date.
