    I-751 July 2017 Filers, Part II

    in Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion

    Posted

    Hi All, 

    i would appreciate if someone could respond to me here. 

    I had a N400 and I-751 combo interview yesterday and after interview letter was given to stating that I passed my test however decision has not been made on my citizenship application. Today, GC application status shows card is being produced. However no status update on US Citizenship application. 

    Questions: 

    1. Since card is being produced, am i going to receive the card? Since I went for combo interview

    2. How long does it take to get decision on citizenship application? 

    Please advise if anyone here experienced the same situation. 

    Thank you

    Thank you guys for responding to my post earlier. 

    I checked my status on both USCIS websites and it says following. 

    USCIS old website: On September 15, 2018, we received your Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence, Receipt Number EAC************, at your local office. 

    USCIS new website: On February 26, 2018, we received your Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence, Receipt Number EAC*************, at your local office.

    Service Center on extension letter: VSC 

    N-400 Status on new website: We reviewed your bio-metrics. You do not need to do anything at this time. Wait time says 5 months. 

    Service Inquiry Submitted date: March 25th, 2019  

     

    Questions:

    1. Besides service inquiry, do I need to do anything else? 

    2. Why two statuses show different on both websites (see above)

    3. How do you know whats your local office? I am in New York

     

    Thank you so much for reading and answering my questions above. I really appreciate it and wish you all best wishes. :)

     

    Hi All, 

     

    I've received response from USCIS on my service inquiry: Both I-751 and N-400 will be adjudicated at the same time. 

     

    Thanks

    Hi All,

     

    Nothing has changed on my application, it is still pending and I applied on July 29th, 2017. I got I-551 stamp and also 18 months extension letter. However, letter and green card are not valid anymore anyway because of the I-551 stamp.

    Pro: I-551 stamp extended my travel until July 2019

    Con: Right after getting I-551, GC, 12 months and 18 months letter became invalid.

     

    The IO right after putting I-551 stamp made my GC and letter invalid. I realized that when I was coming back from Canada. When I handed my GC and 12 months extention letter, the IO officer at the border said that it was already expired in the system. He said, the moment you receive I-551 stamp on the passport everything else becomes invalid. That's when I showed him I-551 stamp and was able to cross the border.

     

    I pray for everyone including me that we all go thru this intense process successfully.

     

    Regards

    Hi All, 

    I am new in this post and wanted to share my current situation. 

    I filed for I-751 (Removal of Conditions) last year in July as my 2 year conditional GC was expiring in Oct 2017. I received 1 year extension that is going to expire in October 2018. However, I was able to get the I-551 last month which extended my residency until July 2019. In addition, after receiving my I-551 on passport, I also received a new extension letter with 18 months extension from GC expiry date. I am assuming I-551 is the date I should by since that is extended until July 2019. 

    Yesterday, I applied for n-400 while I-751 still pending. Please let me know if any of you have any questions. 

    Thanks

    Hi All,

     

    As per my earlier post, I received my I-551 stamp and few weeks after that received my extension letter. I am going by my I-551 stamp. Yesterday, I applied for my n400 online and submitted following docs. GC (front/back), old/new passport, 3 year tax, marriage/child certificate, spouse naturalization certificate, spouse US passport photo page, child US passport photo page, medical coverage card, 18 months extension letter, entry/exit stamps on passport, birth certificate, joint bank account letter and I-551 stamp. Do you think I missed anything?

     

    Thanks

    I think you'll be safe as long as your extension letter expires after the date of your return. That being said, getting a stamp is probably a safer bet. I have an international trip planned in November as well. If my case is still pending in October, I'll definitely be getting a stamp. Are you a VSC filer? 

    Thanks for your response. Yes, I am a VSC filer.

    Hi All,

     

    I am planning to visit Canada by road for a week or so. My 1 year extension letter expires in October. Do you guys think it is safe to travel with expired GC / extension letter expiring end of October? FYI, I made an appointment for Infopass for this week so I will keep you all posted on I-551 stamp status.

     

    Thanks in advance for all your response,

    Hey guys. I am planning to apply for Naturalization next week as we still wait for the ROC to be approved. During my 3 years as Permanent Resident, I went on an international trip for 2 weeks. Does anyone know if I have to wait additional 2 weeks before I can apply for Naturalization? I thought there was something about continued stay within the United States for 3 years.

    If you stay more than 6 months or so outside US then it is a confirm. As soon as you hit 3 years window and you are qualified based on Naturalization requirements for ex: Good Character, 3 years married to US Citizen, less than 6 months of trips outside US, 3 years tax then you are good to go.

    Petty Theft Charged

    Hi All,

     

    I am assisting someone with the N400 application and require some clarification on the criminal history section. Please no critical comments just honest help if anyone is aware of such case.

     

    He arrived in this country on a fiancé visa and got married. Did paper work and got his two year GC. in 2015, he was charged with petty theft about and received a desk appearance ticket. He was offered an ACD which is basically 'case dismissed' without even trial or anything. The condition to get case dismissed is that he had to stay out of trouble for a month and his case will be dismissed automatically and after a month of court hearing that arrest, charge will never show up on his record what so ever. However, I am aware when it comes to n400 we have to disclose every charge so I need some help with answering questions on n-400 application. Just an FYI, his application (I-751) removing conditions from GC is in progress however he is eligible to apply for n400 at his third year residency. People who have been in this situation before, could you please provide your feedback to my answers below.

     

    How should I go about answering questions on the application for him:

    22. Have you ever committed, assisting in committing or attempted to commit, a crime or offense for which you were Not arrested? My answer is No, because he committed only one crime and he was arrested for that. It is not the case where he committed a crime and got away with it. So that why I am saying No for that question.

     

    23. Have you ever been arrested, cited or detained by any law enforcement officer for any reason? My answer is Yes, he was arrested on petty theft

     

    24. Have you ever been charged with committing, attempting to commit, or assist in committing a crime or offense?  My answer is 'yes' because he was committing a petty theft and was caught so he was charged.

     

    25. Have you ever been convicted of a crime or offense? The answer is 'No' because went he went to the court the judge said case dismissed and he received ACD. As per my research ACD is not a conviction. It basically means, judge does not want to know what happened who's fault was that. it mean I am letting you go without even knowing the story because it is your first time

     

    26. Have you ever placed in an alternative sentencing or rehabilitative program (for example, diversion, deferred prosecution, withheld adjudication, deferred adjudication)? I am answering No, because judge never said he had any time of community service he has to do. like clean part or something else.

     

    27. Have you ever received a suspended sentence, been placed on probation or been paroled? I am answering this as No 

     

    28. Have you ever been in Jail or prison? I am answering that question as a 'No' He never went to Jail or this petty theft just took him to the police station where they made him sit at the bench until they issued him a desk appearance ticket

     

    Also, when it comes to submitting online n400 application, I am planning to have him send disposition letter which basically is from court that shows that case was dismissed . Do we have to include anything else?

     

    Apologies for a long post. Thanks in advance for all your help

     

    Thanks

    My GC expired August 2017 but I was out of the country for a month when my 90-day window opened and didn’t want to risk not being there for the biometrics notice (and had nobody to check the mailbox for me), so I filed in July instead of May. I would guess others who have filed their N-400 already were in similar positions...not everyone files ROC on day 1 of their 90-day window. Hope that helps!

    Thanks, makes sense. I appreciate your response. All best wishes to you wih your process.

    In N-400 form in Part9. Time Outside the United States section:

    After arrival in US that is in 2015, I never left US. That means from last three years I am in US. Before my immigration 2015 I was in my country.

    My question is since I was in my home country since 2013 to 2015 before immigration. Can you please verify, below are my answers?

     

    1.       How many total days (24 hours or longer) did you spend outside the United States during the last 5 years?

    Answer: 730 Days

    2.       How many trips of 24 hours or longer have you taken outside the United States during the last 5 years?

    Answer: One

    3.       List below all the trips …..

    Answer: What will be the answer?

    Hi,

     

    You need to provide only three years of information and not five years.

     

    Quick question: Only if you feel comfortable answering. I see few people part of this July forum but they have already applied or in process of applying for N-400 this month. Assuming everyone submitted their I-751 90 days before residency card expired then it means everyone has a residency card expired in Oct 2017. In that case, shouldn't you or everyone else be applying for N-400 in July because that's when you have 90 days left in your 3 year anniversary?

     

    Thanks,

    MB2017
