Updating to say there's been no news. I filed with divorce waiver in February 2017 and had an interview in September 2018. 

I took an interest in following my status again because I was trying to make travel plans in March/April 2019 that involving leave the US. Looks like I won't be able to do that unless I get an approval between now and end of Feb 2019.

Hey it's been a bit more than a month since you received interview invitation. How did it go? Hope everything was fine.

Interview was two days ago. They did not make a decision at the time. I was given a notice that they will continue to review the file. My lawyer said that I should receive a letter in the next 7-10 days.

@wabbajack I see you filed for divorce waiver I am in the same boat as u. I filled jointly and later informed USCIS of my divorce proceeding which is still pending.  Did you filed with your divorce decree or did you receive any RFE at anytime.  I will appreciate your response. Thank u

I did not file jointly. I filed with my divorce decree. The only notice (besides case being transferred) that I got from USCIS was for the interview at my local office next month. I consulted with an attorney and I am working on gathering more evidence (affidavits, older pictures, etc) for proving a good faith marriage.

Just received letter in the mail for interview today. Scheduled for 1 month away. Filed with divorce waiver. Going to consult an immigration attorney to help me get through this. Hopefully we'll get the approval after the interview and be done with this nightmare.

Filed February 2017.

Possibly 18-month extension. I just got mine in the mail.

Going to get this in the mail today. I checked USCIS website and all it says is that on July 17th there's an update for "We received your case". I don't suppose this is anything too exciting then.

After some argument with the local DMV, I finally got a change of address processed on my driver's license. However I think it's only good for one year and I'll probably have to come back again once (if) I get my 10-year GC.

If all of us who still have cases outstanding are getting another extension letter, that would be great.

I went for my INFOPASS today, and the officer would not give me a passport stamp because my letter runs out 9/28/18. BUT I am not able to change the name on my driver's license because the BMV thinks my GC is expired. 

On the bright side, my case is now in Texas. Anyone know how long that takes?

Shame it's going to take at least 3 months even after my application is moved to Nebraska (assuming it is, no idea from the email update). I've scheduled an INFOpass appointment because the local DMV won't let me change my address on my license without an unexpired green card. Yes, I tried explaining the green card is not expired, but that doesn't work.

It seems that is the case.  At least when we got that status update, the notice that came in the mail was informing as that it was sent to Nebraska.  

How long did it take for your case to be approved after that? Were you called for interview or anything?

I think that is the same message we received, when we got the notice in the mail it said the case was transferred to the Nebraska office.

So our applications are just following the same pattern as yours?

My case was finally touched, but the update doesn't really give me any information. It doesn't say which office it got transferred to (another service center or field office). I updated my address recently and requested an INFOPASS appointment for next week, so this should be interesting timing.

You're right about N400 filings being just noise to me. That information isn't relevant to me now (divorce waiver),  and by the looks of it when I file it once I'm eligible (5 years - so 2020), it'll still be a long time before I need to worry about it.

Also, I never saw the letter to Florida in the mailbox. I guess someone along the line must have read the address and figured out it needed to go somewhere else.

Yo, @wabbajack What was cooking with these letters?

Sorry, just got time to follow up. Turns out it's just a notice from USCIS responding to my case inquiry. It's just a form letter that says my case is under normal processing times. The other letter was something to do with some government lender program (I just bought a house). Looks like I'm still waiting.

Im sure on the 2nd one I can see a picture of the Statue of liberty, however it may be a shadow not, sure cant get a complete close up and I don't want to raise your hopes. Whatever it is its progress in the right direction.

Please don't tease me.

I also bought a house today, so that's going to be an exciting time regardless.

USPS tells me I'm getting these in the mail today. I debated taking the day off and just waiting by my mailbox. Anyone know what it could be? I'm concerned that the letter is dated April 12. I did not file for N400 (not eligible).

Apparently, someone else's USCIS letter is also arriving in my mailbox.

I got another one of these emails. I received exactly the same thing last week (Apr 12), so I wonder if I've done something with my inquiry that now makes them send an automated update every week. Has anyone else experienced this?

How do you know if your case has been transferred to Nebraska? My update only says local office.

No news on my case with regards to Nebraska.

However I will add that I do not carry my GC/passport/NOA letter around. I have a driver's license that expires in 2019. That should be good enough.

I received an email with the following note: (I think the action was a change of address, as I did move effective November 1, 2017.)

I actually contacted my senator (RIchard Durbin) here in Illinois and what I got was a response from the Congressional liaison in CSC saying that the processing times are long and that you are authorized to stay and work in the United States.

Can you tell me what you used to contact your senator? I would do this as well, but with additional information relevant to my case of course.

Your automatic digital nudge gets an automated response as well.

I sent in a case inquiry and selected that I did not receive a notice by mail. What do I have to lose at this point?

For CSC filers, the estimated processing time has been updated to 17.5 - 19 months. You can only file a case inquiry if your case is dated before September 1, 2016.

This makes it extra confusing for me because I had intended to submit a case inquiry on March 28, per the notice that they received my case when looking up the I751 receipt number.

This is all so difficult
