Receiving I751 interview scheduled notice AFTER already having one and receiving 10yr permanent residence green card?

Recommended Posts

We had our I571 interview back in January and were really stressed after receiving the notice saying that our case was being held for review, but after a few days, our case status changed to "New Card Being Produced" and after a few weeks, my wife received her 10year permanent residence green card.  But a few days ago, we received ANOTHER notice saying that we are scheduled for our initial I751 interview in April! The notice date is months after we received the green card so I'm not sure what the heck is going on.  We already had this interview and we already received our green card??? Is this a mistake?? I'm going to call USCIS on Monday, obviously, to try and get to the bottom of it, but has anyone run into this??

I agreed, just ignored. Did you get an update about approval letter? You should be receiving a letter of approval of RAC before 10 yrs GC.

I think you should go to the interview if it is not cancelled no need to risk rejection due to an error on USCIS part issuing you the green card. USCIS is not good at resolving their errors in the petitioner favor.

Go to the interview to prevent USCIS issuing a rejection in your case.

*UPDATE* So I tried MANY times to get a hold of an agent to figure this out and it was near IMPOSSIBLE with their automated system hanging up on you if you keep requesting to talk to an agent or forces you to a solution that isn't useful.  

 

HOWEVER, I eventually got a hold of an agent (process outlined below) and they said it is in fact an error and that there have been a number of these types of errors.  People show up for the interview and they turn them away saying it was an error. They said to ignore it and to not show up for the interview.

 

This process was extremely frustrating and annoying for us.  They make an error, and they make it impossible to find a solution.  There's no solution online, there's no solution over the phone, there's no notice sent out, there's no option to contact them regarding this type of issue. In the end, I was able to get a hold of a representative by lying about my purpose for calling.

 

IF YOU NEED TO GET A HOLD OF AN AGENT, it looks like the only way at this point is to say "request an appointment" when the prompt asks why you're calling.  Even if you're not requesting an appointment or your inquiry is totally unrelated, this method will get you to an agent.  

 

Good luck everyone!
