For this one, you have to create an account.

My ROC application shows up on this one, but not the old one.

I've had my biometrics though. That only took a couple of weeks to come through. OP, have you tried calling them?

My case status literally hasent changed even after fingerprints etc. not sure if its expected to change or not.

Case Was Received

On April 3, 2019, we received your Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence, Receipt Number EACXXXXXXXXX, and sent you the receipt notice that describes how we will process your case. Please follow the instructions in the notice. If you do not receive your receipt notice by May 3, 2019, contact the USCIS Contact Center at www.uscis.gov/contactcenter. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

Well mine doesn't even show up on there! I'd be interested to know if anyone else is unable to locate their case, or if it's just me!

Roll on citizenship when I never have to do any of this ever again!

Hello All,

 

I have created a spreadsheet for all EAC Vermont Service Center filers for I-751 for April 2019.  

Feel free to fill the dates so we have a gauge of timelines.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FjY4DhjA4dyLGQoKNlzavwPCnNRnV5R1_Q0oHy0rlbM/edit?usp=sharing

 

Best of luck to all

 

Thanks for doing that. I've filled in my details.

As an aside, are any EAC filers able to locate their case if they search here? https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/

My Case Status does not recognize the receipt number entered, but I can find my case on https://myaccount.uscis.gov/ it just hasn't updated since it changed to 'We received your case, You do not need to do anything at this time, We will let you know if we need anything else from you as we continue to review your case.'

Any idea how long it would take to get it corrected?

I haven't received an EAD or advance parole, so does that mean I won't be able to work? 

This exact same thing happened to me. It took 12 months to get new, correct permanent resident card.

To cover this period I was able to get a stamp in my passport at an Infopass appointment. I wish I had known about the DMV trick above at the time!

Just received a text. Case received and being sent to Vermont Service Center.

Sent package 25th March, Delivered 27th March, Text received today

Looks like that!

Hello all,

Paperwork submitted today. Good luck to everyone, hope your ROC passage is a smooth one.

The only kind of thing I can think of (if you have them) would be the kind of things which show each other as beneficiaries. Life Insurance, 401k, medical proxy forms.

Also if you're on each others medical insurance that might be worth including. You mention IRS transcripts, does that include W2s?

Seems like you have a decent stack of papers anyway! We have to file ours in a few days time. Good luck!

Scan of passport page? Is that a requirement?

Update on filing times.

Greencard was given to me with incorrect dates on it in July 2017. Submitted I90 to have it replaced in July 2017, and I just received the new, correctly dated green card this week. Around 400 days of waiting including an RFE in July 2018 for me to send them my original Greencard (which I had already done  in the original 2017 submission...).

Had my medical in London in July 2016. 

The doctor did look, for about a second. There was no touching and no commenting! All in all it wasn't any bother to me.

I'm definitely going to listen to everyone here, and hopefully have my passport stamped and I-90 filed by the end of the week. I don't know how people figure this kind of issue out without Visa Journey, honestly. If I didn't have this resource, I'd probably just have kept the card and not known any better. Which is pretty dangerous!

Exactly the same happened to me, the advice you've been given here is correct. File I-90, go get a stamp in your passport at an Infopass appointment and wait. It's a pretty long wait though! I'm up to 190 days since I returned mine and i'm still at "Case Is Being Actively Reviewed by USCIS". I've read it can take six months to a year to get the card back, and a part of me expects it to be returned with another error on it to be honest! 

You're also right about what a great resource this website and community is. I can see how people would just think they had lucked out and keep the card, never think about it again, until they encounter problems further down the road. I initially tried to call the customer service line for advice on if this was a mistake or not, and was told that it was ok, relax! Keep the card! Luckily, the VJ education I have received knew this was bull!

@Markip1Oh perfect. So you just showed in your info pass the Receipt Notice (Form I-797)? Thanks. 

Because it all happened so close to the date we were traveling (I got my GC far quicker than expected, was planing on traveling on AP when the incorrect GC randomly showed up one day) I didn't actually have the receipt when I went in for the appointment. 

So, I took copies of the completed I-90 form, copies of back and front of my GC and a certificate of postage from the Post Office. They were able to look in the system to verify my I-90 had been received. 

I was honestly expecting it to be a big ordeal, but they seemed like they dealt with it all the time, gave me a stamp valid for a year and sent me on my way. 

Travelling using the stamp hasn't presented any problems yet either.

@Markip1 Happy New Year! 

 

After your biometrics, did you make an info pass for passport stamping? The stamp serves as a green card but it is only valid for a year. 

I actually made the Infopass appointment and got a stamp before my biometrics appointment as we were traveling to the UK during August.

Hi there @Markip1

I have the same experience. My conditional green card got an error due to dhs. I sent my I-90 last Dec 13, 2017 and was delivered to the lockbox in arizona last Dec 19,2017. Today, December 29, 2017, I got an email and text notification that my case has been accepted and routed to the USCIS Harrisonburg Storage Center for processing. Within 7-10 days by standard mail, I will receive my official Receipt Notice (Form I-797) with Receipt Number IOExxxxxxxxxx. 

 

I read some comments that this field office is fast! Let's pray that this will be a smooth one. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Just a quick update, as of today I'm still waiting. I had my biometrics done again back in September and since then have been at the status of "Case being actively reviewed by USCIS". Total days so far - 159.

Hope everything runs smoothly for you Barbie.ness, good luck and happy new year! 

Hello! I recently sent back my conditional permanent resident card back to USCIS (to the Phoenix lockbox) with an I-90 form,  as it was produced with errors. I had an email from USCIS earlier saying it has been accepted and forwarded to Harrisonburg Storage Center. 

I've not heard of Harrisonburg Storage Center before so wondered if anyone else has experienced similar and this is normal, or is my application going to get stuffed in a box and placed on a dusty shelf somewhere!?

Chase doesnt even ask for SSN of your spouse. I added my spouse on my chase credit card. they never asked for her SSN.

This was true for us as well. It took about thirty seconds online, no SSN needed.

Thanks for all the replies and ideas. 

 

Messaged a local agency yesterday still awaiting a response back from them. Not too bothered about getting back into Insurance but something similar I miss going into the office everyday.

 

Randomly sent an application to a local lawn care company that's mainly working on computers and speaking to people and actually got a response asking me to attend an interview on Tuesday, I was a little surprised!!! 

Glad to hear it, good luck with the interview, let us know what develops. 

Have you considered registering with any temp agencies, if you have any in your local area? I applied to so many jobs without much luck as soon as I got my EAD. I was full of excitement when it first arrived, but it ended up getting pretty disheartening to put effort into so many applications and never hear back from most of them. However, within a week or two of registering with an agency I had a short term placement in my field. I approached the short term job in two ways 1) a great chance to get some of this 'US work experience'  mentioned above, and 2) as a kind of working interview. It worked out well as my short term role ended up turning into a long term role.

The other option is to see if there are any opportunities to volunteer in your field, although clearly that has the drawback of not resulting in any income!

Just got this email today for my wife..... this really mean that she is getting the green card without an interview???!!  I am scratching my head.  

 

Application Type: I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS 

Your Case Status: Card/ Document Production 

On July 14, 2017, we ordered your new card for Receipt Number MSC17900XXXXX, and will mail it to the address you gave us. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address. 

This step applies to applications that result in an applicant receiving a card (such as a "green card") or other document (such as a naturalization certificate, employment authorization document, travel document, or advance parole). Applications will be in this step from the time the order to produce the card/document is given until the card/document is produced and mailed to the applicant. You can expect to receive your card/document within 30 days of the approval of your application. If you do not receive your document, please contact our National Customer Service Center at 1-800-375-5283. 

Congrats! We didn't have to interview either...which was great...except they sent through the greencard with a ten year expiry date instead of a two year date, so that had to be returned. Doh!

I didn't realize that you're married for less than 2 years and beside I don't really know the condition of the people that said that they got a 10 years green card on spot, right after interview. I think you might be better off consulting with a lawyer, they usually charge as low as $100.00 for a consultation appointment.

Good luck and congrats!

PS. Your Green Card didn't come with instructions of what to do in case there is some kind of error? I think you should follow the instructions that came with your Green Card.

Thank you, I think I will head to the infopass appointment and get the I551 stamp in my passport. I'll follow the I90  instructions I have too, and hope for the best!

17 minutes ago, GabiMatch said:

I don't think that this is error at all, some people just get the 10 years on spot at the time of the interview, most of the people will get the 2 years conditional but some people does get the 10 years one. I think that you're just one of he lucky ones.

Congratulation!!!

Thanks for your reply, I'm interested in what makes you say that? Everything I have read states that K1 visa holders adjusting their status will be issued a two year conditional greencard if they have been married for less than two years. The only thing that the USCIS officer I spoke to on the phone yesterday seemed certain of was that it was an error. Sadly, he didn't have much in the way of helpful suggestions as to how best to fix the error! 

As great as it would be to have been granted a ten year greencard, I really don't want this to come back to bite me in the butt in the future...

Hello,

So my greencard card arrived this week, which was great except it had been issued incorrectly. It was issued with an IF1 category and a ten year expiry date, instead of having a two year conditional date and a CF1 category. We were only married in December 2016 so I know this is a mistake. I made an Infopass appointment to get an I-551 passport stamp on the recommendation of another forum user, and managed to get one in two weeks time, but I am wondering if I should send back the greencard and the I-90 form prior to the appointment, or keep hold of it, take everything along to the appointment and turn it in there. On the one hand I don't want to give up my proof of residency, but on the other I don't want to get to the appointment and have them refuse to stamp my passport with an I-551 because i haven't submitted an I-90 yet. I tried calling USCIS but they weren't too helpful!

Anybody have any experience in this area? Thank you!

NYC medicals:

I had to have another medical exam which we were very annoyed about, as being a K1 visa AOS applicant you are not required to!!!! It clearly states on the 'instructions' part of the 1-693 which is current only a few months ago. We actually told them that in our response to the rfe, and didn't get it done. Nothing came up on my medical, and vaccinations were completed etc. So, something is going very wrong with USCIS with this repeated medical request...but as I have learned, not much can be done about it without delaying further. I did some research and found an awesome civil surgeon:

NYC

July 2015

Dr anthony Blau

Greencard medical exams

Phone:(212) 766-4433

305 Broadway, Suite 444, New York, NY 10007

www.greencardmedicalexam.com

Cost: $200 for exam

Turnaround: walked in for appointment on the Tuesday, at 10 am (hour after they open) and was out of there in less than 2 hours. Lots of forms to fill out, saw one person who looked over vaccination and other forms, said all is good. Then wait again, before seeing Dr Blau, who was very nice. Very, very simple and not like the medical I had in Australia. I cannot emphasise how easy this was...I was a nervous wreck beforehand (despite knowing nothing is wrong). But they were all very nice, professional, Dr Blau and the other Dr were super friendly with a sense of humor. My husband was asked if he wanted to come in too. They took blood, and did the TB skin test, both painless (for needles!) and was outta there. Had to return in 48 hours to have TB test read, was in and out within about 70 minutes. Didn't have to see Dr Blau again, just the other Dr who got me to sign. Then waited for paperwork (picked up all at same time) and read through it. Waited again, then got called up to sign. They seal it for you etc, and that is it. Payment done on first day. cash or credit card. You are given a copy of everything for your own records, and he said they have it all on their database and said they can give copies if ppl lose them. (not sure of cost) No need to fast beforehand, no urine etc, just bloods. It is a walk in situation and they ONLY DEAL WITH GREEN CARD exams...bonus!!!! Only 3 other ppl waiting both times I went. Their website has all the info on there including cost. I am not sure what it costs for vaccinations if you need them, but it is extra.

Highly recommended. They have yelp reviews too. I will add one later..

Second recommendation for this location. I went this morning at 9am for my vaccinations to be transcribed onto a I693 form and was out within an hour. 

Cost was $60, the staff were very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. There was no pressure to undergo another medical, they knew exactly what I needed and were professional and speedy in their care. 

Just an update. Tried for a walk in today and was politely declined. Was told I will have to wait one to two weeks for a new letter.
