You would probably attend the Dallas, TX field office and the USCIS website is saying that it will take about 11 to 16.5 months. If you apply online and set up an account it will tell you how long it will take. I applied August 2018 and my account had an estimated completion of citizenship at October 2019. I completed my naturalization July 1, 2019. But again if you apply and make an account it may give you a better timeline than the 11 to 16.5 months the USCIS website gives depending on the busyness of the Dallas office. 

How does my wife get her green card validity extended?  Hers has expired while waiting on her conditions to be removed on her first green card.

She just applies for it. File the N-400. You can do it online or paper-based. As long as she has been a permanent resident for 3 years (yes, she remains a permanent resident while her I-751 is pending) and she lived the last 3 years in “marital union” with a US citizen, she can apply.

Ok, how long is the process for citizenship usually? 

Can my wife apply for citizenship when she has been here for 3 years? She had already applied to lift the restrictions on her green card but it’s already taking so long that she has now been here long enough to apply for citizenship.  How does she apply for citizenship if she is still waiting on her green card renewal?  Btw my wife is married to me a citizen by birth. 

I am a us citizen, my wife is a green card holder, is their any way I can bring my wife’s sister into the US?

What exactly should I bring to the info pass appointment?  My wife has filed for removal of conditions but her green card has expired with no further word from the uscis.  All we have is the uscis website notification that they received the ringerprint fee.  Should I bring copies of the paperwork that we sent to the uscis for roc?

What do you mean you have a receipt number saying fingerprint fee?

 

If you have a receipt number that usually means you got the NOA. The paper NOA should say how it extends your status. Fingerprint fee received message is usually displayed on the online status. Did you get a paper NOA? Did you read it?

On the uscis app it says my fingerprint fee was received. That’s it. I haven’t received any paper receipt notice in the mail.  On the uscis app it says the receipt notice was sent but I haven’t received anything in the mail. The uscis app is the only thing showing that I have applied for roc on green card 

I have recently filed for removal of conditions. I have a receipt number from the uscis only saying they received my fingerprint fee.  They haven’t sent me anything regarding my case other than that.  My green card has expired due to waiting on anything from the uscis.  What would an info pass appointment do for me? Is it worth driving to it?

I looked up in the Case tracker (app by USCIS). I entered 1804400000 with a window of 500 cases.

It seems that only 7 cases (including mine) out of 500 got transferred to an office with different jurisdiction.

I am very intrigued. Is it because of the joint N400 filing? As soon as I get that letter, I will let the group know.

How does one know which cases are near this or that case?

Mag and Chef: One VSC September 6 th, 2017 transfer to TSC and approved on Dec 19, 2018.  So around 15.5 to 16 months.  Since all service center are anywhere from 15.5 to 22. 5 months, not sure workload sharing could improve processing time.

The paperwork is done by contract workers who don’t get paid a lot. 

My my case number is src1990072058

on the uscis app it says they sent me something in the mail but I have received nothing.  The info pass site says no Appointments available every time I check. 

Can my wife apply for citizenship before her 3 years or does she have to wait for the green card roc to process?

Roger that....that was my plan.😀

The info pass appointment nearest to me has no vacant slots for the next 14 days it says.  The nearest one to me is the one in Dallas, TX

You should call as I said in another post I apply in Nov 14th 2017. And they told me I have to make an info pass appointment to get my extencion letter

I called the uscis and they just tell me the same thing I can find out online.  They said they filed a request for information on my case but they won’t respond before the green card expires.  What does it mean if people are legally here and have cases pending but have no document to prove it?

My wife’s i751 was received on November 3. 

Online it says fingerprint fee received but no paper letter of extension yet.  How long does it normally take to get letter in mail from uscis on i751??  It’s been about 30 days now.

It does not mean you can get deported. You are still in legal status (as long as you filed for ROC before your card expired). You just have no proof of it. 

 

You can make a request here: https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/displayNDNForm.do?entryPoint=init&

 

 

I thought that would work too but on that link if you try to select form number it won’t let you, their is nothing to choose. I tried on both pc and mac. The form subtype option doesn’t work either.

If you don't have an extension letter, I would make an appointment at a USCIS office and get a letter or a stamp in passport..

I have the notification on the app that they received my fingerprint fee.  Is their a way to get the letter sent without me driving a long way to an office?

What if green card expires but I haven’t received any letter in the mail?  Does this mean I can be deported?  The uscis received my fingerprint fee about 23 days ago. 

Me and my Indian wife will be traveling to India and her maiden name is still on her Indian passport. We have American legal residency card with her married name on it along with American marriage certificate.  Will we have problems getting hotels in Kerala? 

Before we visit my wife's family does Indian law require that her last name is changed to her married name on her passport?  

My wife is now a green card holder and at the time of open enrollment for health insurance she didn't have her social security card which is required to get health insurance. 

So so guess what since she didn't have American health insurance when she was still in her country and couldn't get it in the U.S. Yet during open enrollment....she can be made to pay the fine for not having health insurance. 

This is bull that we have to pay a fine for not having something she had no way of getting. 

The insurance places claim that she has to get it within 60 days of arriving but they didn't understand that a k1 visa itself is not a visa for staying in the U.S. Legally, it's the completion of the adjustment of status which is really when the  60 day time period for insurance enrollment should be started I would think. 

My wife's green card is being produced ?????

Is their an average time frame from getting ead to getting green card when going from k1 to aos?

Does anyone know how filing advanced parole after receiving ead works?

Do they give a whole new ead card?

My wife's ead is on the way in the mail ??

She didn't file for advanced parole but we might just in case.

Congrats! My husband received his card two weeks following that status. He just received a job offer yesterday and starts on Monday. Early Christmas present!

That is good news.

I wonder how much longer it usually is for green card after getting ead.

Wife got message that ead card is in production.
