Do the needful send it back and you should get your extension letter . I got my 48months extension yesterday evening after resending the package back with the missing page . You should contact uscis Emma and ask the representative question or better stil call uscis and ask to speak with tier 2 officer 

Did the tier 2 officer send you your extension letter or did you receive in mail?

Pretty sure there are multiple people on here that got the letters on different days, so no cause to worry! It's in the nature of USPS that letters may not move through the system at the same speed, even if sent from the same place. 

Are all three letters sent on the same day but move through USPS separately?

That was the case for us, yes. And I would say that's generally what happens.

While others wait for more than 3 years.....something is seriously broken at USCIS.  SERIOUSLY BROKEN.

I totally understand your frustration, but USCIS is changing the way they’re processing the cases (IOE, online), so there’s no more backlog. They for sure are working on those stuck, old cases, but cannot hold or increase the backlog with the new cases. Working faster on these new cases is actually a good thing for decreasing the workload and accelerating the old ones.

Sorry, but you do NOT understand. There is no justification for the disparity. It seems they are manipulating their processing time stats...at the expense of people who applied YEARS ago!!

ok, but don’t attack me, it is not my fault. I just had a little bit of luck and I feel happy about my case being handled and approved.

I'm not attacking anyone except USCIS.  I didn't even mention you or your case.  Congratulations!! That is a significant milestone.  In my opinion, they need to totally eliminate the I-751.

Since when did Uscis start online filing for I-751. Never heard of one being filled online

They don't.  They are cherry-picking and practicing last in, first out.

I agree. Except for questionable cases it shouldn't even be a thing. I can see the reason for it to exist at N400 stage but not 751. As some others suggested, its basically just revenue raising for USCIS and nothing more

Your explanation makes no sense.. How is working on the constant flow of new I-751’s accelerating the old ones? If anything, it’s PREVENTING them from working on the old ones. With kind regards, an August 2021 filer 👍🏻
