Feeling like a dummy because I had the I-751 on my radar as needing to submit in August, but I thought it was just the form... not piles of evidence and a fee! I recently had a baby so I blame mom brain...

 

That being said, here is what I have collected for my package. Anything obvious I'm missing? 

- Check for fee

- Completed I-1751

 

Copies of:

- permanent resident card

- marriage certificate

- son’s birth certificate (born this March)

- health insurance with my husband and son on it

- void check from shared checking account

- account statements from shared checking and savings accounts

- 401K listing husband as beneficiary

- purchase & sales agreement for our house (lists us as co-owners)

- IRS tax transcripts for years we've been married

- motor vehicle purchase agreement (lists us as co-owners)

- cards from family members and friends for engagement, holidays, baby

- photos of us, our son, our family members over various years/locations (don't have a ton of photos of us together, plenty of our baby though including us with him at the hospital)

- a few pieces of mail addressed to both of us, including cards from family, health insurance letter, and mortgage statements

 

Congratulations and good luck ,those are very strong evidence you are good !

Hello everyone. 

My case was received on 08/16/2022 and today I got the text message. The case status says:  On August 16, 2022, we received your Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence, Receipt Number ......, and sent you the receipt notice that describes how we will process your case. Please follow the instructions in the notice.

 

Does that mean that is not accepted ? Check hasn't been cashed yet as well. 

 What did your case status usually stated when they received it ?

@bradoony it's likely the NOA letter extending your Green Card validity by 24 months from it's expiration. Don't worry, everybody get them.

My credit card payment went through before the text but maybe they process checks at a different pace. I would say it's accepted though because if they rejected it due to improper payment or missing something they wouldn't have texted you a receipt number and would just mail it back to you.

 

My text message said:

 

USCIS:  Your case was received. Receipt # xxxxxxx. Official Receipt Notice (Form I-797C) to follow in mail. Msg & Data rates may apply. DO NOT REPLY

Thank you. I will just wait and see. I was not sure if they can even rejected it so fast ( due to mistake in the form ) but for the check probably they could. I am hoping this message means its accepted

Fellas, I have an update -> got my NOA letter(24 month extension) in the mailbox yesterday!

 

So my up to date ROC timeline is:

 

08/05 - sent package via USPS to Elgin PO Box (Carol Stream, IL) 

08/08 - package delivered

08/11 - got a text message around 5 pm, with receipt number (no email)

08/18 - got a mail/I-797 NOA, "Receipt Notice" that states application received date: 08/08, notice date 08/11

 

P.S. My receipt number starts with YSC 🥴 , i.e. Potomac Service Center.... unfortunately

It was accepted! Don’t worry 😉 

 

I also paid with check and it was cashed a few days after I got the text message (can’t remember exactly how long it took, maybe like 4 days?)

 

In a week or so, you’ll receive the NOA extending the GC for 24 months. Make copies of it and keep it in a safe place!

Howdy!
 

Got my extension letter yesterday (08/22)!

 

I am in TX Service Center.

Received date 08/11

Notice date 08/16

 

Wonder if the Biometric would be waived...they sure do tease you saying that we might or we might not need to collect biometrics  

Also, from how the Notice is worded it looks that one is free to add documents supporting the case along the way, wonder if people are doing that.

 

Anyhow - happy waiting to everyone!

For those who sent to Arizona locker, how long did it take to get notification via text? And how long for check to cash? Tia!
