    I-751 filed 9/2017

    N-400 filed 9/2018

    I-751 & N-400 RFE received 5/2020 and responded 6/2020

    I-551 stamp expired 5/2020 and received new stamp a few weeks ago. 

     

    We have regularly been told that I-751 and N-400 would be adjudicated at the same time, but yesterday we received an email (see attached) about the I-751. Our lawyer has never seen an I-751 interview notice that mentions TESTING AND INTERVIEW, and USCIS couldn't provide any additional details when we called. Extremely frustrating. 

     

    Has anyone received something similar?

    Hi, we might be in a similar position, but haven't received the letter yet. My husband is a combo filer (I-751 March 2018, N-400 February 2020) and his I-751 status changed yesterday. His I-751 was sitting at the NBC for 1 year while they reviewed his RFE. I was really shocked to see the I-751 status change to "Case is ready to be scheduled for an interview". However, his N-400 is still slotted to be processed next year -- current status is "we reviewed your biometrics". I also thought they had to be adjudicated together, but I guess USCIS is making exceptions now. I have no idea what to expect, so we'll wait a few more days for the letter (no documents are online yet). I can't imagine USCIS would do the citizenship exam at this point, but I wouldn't put it pass them to try it.

  2. @Hopegrace We haven’t had the I-751 interview yet, our case was only transferred to Seattle to be scheduled for an interview. That was in August 2019 and we haven’t heard anything since then. We’re still technically within normal processing times for CSC but after I looked at some other threads for cases similar to ours, I saw the scheduling can take up to 8 months, and a few congresspeople had to inquire 2-3 times since USCIS apparently doesn’t always respond to the first congressional inquiry. We just decided that for us the right decision was to stop waiting and just go for the N400. 

  3. Hi, just joining this thread as my husband has officially submitted his N-400 with a pending I-751 (last action was August 2019 when transferred to the local office to schedule an interview). I didn't realize how backlogged the Seattle office was until we filed N-400. Now am thinking the reason why the I-751 is pending is simply due to the caseload in Seattle. I'd even be happy to drive over to Yakima or down to Portland at this point if it would speed up the process. 

  4. We officially submitted N-400 today. Our I-751 is pending, and the last action was taken in August 2019 when it was transferred to our local office (Seattle) to schedule an interview. We'd originally hoped to get the 10-year green card and take a break from USCIS before filing N-400, but the wait has just become comically long. My husband filed the I-751 in March 2018, and has been eligible for N-400 for several months. We originally didn't file N-400 for a few reasons, but have now decided to file since we just really want to just move on with our lives. Best of luck to everyone else still waiting for I-751, and to everyone who's filed N-400 :)

    Hello guys,

    Anybody still waiting for I751 approval or it s just me waiting? I feel all alone and sad here...😌 no more posts, no more approvals... It s been 20 months for me and still no news from USCIS. I sent my I751 application to CSC exactly 20 months and 2 days ago and I didn’t apply for N400 . Anybody in the same situation? If yes let s just start another group to keep each other encouraged, that would be so nice. Thanks guys!

    Hey there, we are still waiting as well. We responded to our RFE back in May and our file was transferred to the National Benefits Center in August. We've been waiting for 20 months exactly, as of today. We're going to enjoy the holidays together, then file for citizenship if we still haven't heard anything by January. Good luck to you and your partner, I hope we all get this resolved soon.

    I finally got an update, but not really what I was looking for.

     

    My case was transferred and new office has jurisdiction. Did anyone else get this? My case was originally CSC. For those of you who had their cases transferred, how long did it take to get action? I am just hoping it does not go to an office that has even a bigger backlog.

     

    Yes, the wait is just frustrating!

    We got the same thing a couple days ago. A day before that it was “Your case has been transferred to schedule an interview.” I’m pretty sure all of this means that our cases were transferred to local field offices to schedule interviews. I imagine the scheduling timeline for each of us depends on the workload at our respective field offices.

    As promised, here I am updating you after my interview.

     

    It went very smoothly. We got approved on the spot. The officer was very nice and funny as well. Very relaxed atmosphere in the office. 

    The officer just went through our I-765 application asking us to confirm the full name, DOB and SSN. She asked my husband the date of our marriage and then she went on talking about the pictures I submitted, she enjoyed going through them. 

    Really that's it. She asked if we have kids or prior marriages and she complimented with me for the job on filing the application, she specified the tab and color-coded system really helped her going through our file and she doesn't have any doubts that our marriage is in bona fide.

     

    She said to expect the 10-year green card to be in my mail within 3 weeks. :)

     

    We are done!!!!

    Congrats! Thanks for the info! Wishing you and your partner all the best :)

    Ok, my turn to update you on my process.

     

    So, we moved to California in January, and that triggered an RFE for good faith marriage. We replied in March, and our case was moved to the National Benefits Center.

    We moved again this past Saturday to a new apartment and I received a call today from the Field Office close to our house saying that we have our interview scheduled on June 4th!!! Woohoo!!

    They said that they sent me an interview letter but it was sent back to them, so they called me to be sure I was aware of the interview. The lady who I spoke to was super nice!!! Very excited to put an end to this process :D

     

    I haven't applied for citizenship yet. 

    Congratulations on the progress! We're in a similar situation as we moved right before submitting our I-751 and received an RFE last month. We submitted the additional evidence a couple weeks ago and I'm thinking we might also be interviewed. If you don't mind my asking, would it be possible for you to report back with the types of questions they asked you in the interview? I'm feeling a bit nervous about a potential interview and, like everyone else, very much looking forward to this stage being over. Good luck in the interview and cheers to almost being done!
