Hi everyone! I just want to post that my hubbys interview was yesterday. The initial interview letter we received was for hte N400 but they did the i751 and the N400 at the same time. The officer requested that I go in for the i751. She was very nice and she asked me my husbands name, DOB, when we got married, where he worked and I think that was it and she approved the i751. She allowed me to stay for my hubbys citizenship exam as long as I remained quiet. The exam took maybe 5/10 minutes. Hubby passed with flyin colors and he received his naturalization certificate the same day. Our immigration journey is finally coming to an end and we will be heading to the post office for his US passport.
 
Good luck to everyone!! Be patient your time will be here soon!

Guys i have some news! My husband's n-400 has been scheduled. I a mwaiting for the letter in the mail! Very excited! Still no movement on the i-751, so ridiculous but we are very happy that we are almost there.

they just suck. My husband is taking a citizenship course in Jersey and they told him that Newark is the most backed up location on the east coast... I was like how lovely we have already been waiting over a year... so ridiculous. I wish they would just let us bypass the interview. It seems like that has happened to some people (not sure if they were Newark location or not though).

Did anyone see this frikn update? 24 months now instead of 18 months! fml. This is such bullshit. THey should just waive interviews and get this going already.
 
USCIS Extends Evidence of Status for Conditional Permanent Residents to 24 Months with Pending Form I-751 or Form I-829 September 03, 2021 Starting Sept. 4, 2021, USCIS is extending the time that receipt notices can be used to show evidence of status from 18 months to 24 months for petitioners who properly file Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence, or Form I-829, Petition by Investor to Remove Conditions on Permanent Resident Status

I just can’t believe they are going to send New receipts out vs either changing the system, schedule the damn interviews, or waive them completely. Two years is just so stupid. It doesn’t even make sense why it’s two years. The system really needs to change. They just need to push the cases through especially when you can clearly tell by the stack of paperwork who’s marriage is legit and who’s isnt. I’m just so upset and frustrated about this. I’m only thankful that my husband is in the country with me and we are not apart like we were when waiting for the cr-1 to be approved. 

10 years would be appropriate.  Why should a K-1 entrant be exempt from an interview vs a CR-1 entrant?  It just doesn't make sense.  There is no need for conditional cards at all.

hi guys a little update for MSC filers - I just received my biometrics letter. It is dated April 16, 2021. and the appointment is for May 14th. My status online stilllllllll states case received. INSANE... 10 months later but i finally got the stupid biometrics letter! Slow progress but progress!

hell yes! go apply for citizenship lol dont wait for anything. My lawyer told us that applying for citizenship can expedite the I-751. I would not wait when it comes to USCIS, as long as you are eligible to you should totally go for it.

I am in the same boat, GC expired August 28th, 2020. There has not been any movement at all on my case. The wait is horrendous. I was hoping with the new president, things would get moving faster ( Still hoping!!). I will be filing for citizenship at the end of May. Hopefully that helps expedite things.

this is definitely frustrating. I am a June filer and still no update on biometrics. I have inquired about 4 times. My last time was Jan 10th with noone assigned to the case yet of course. This is insane.

@See7 I got a notification saying my fingerprints were applied to my case as well. I think this means we get to skip the actual biometric appointment. Maybe? 
I'm happy there is now an update and the case is *slowly* moving.

I have still not heard anything since June... I am not sure what my field office is to be honest, but I think its Newark, NJ. The waiting is killing me. No biometrics no notice that the first ones were used. Nothing. Complete silence.

thats awesome!! congrats! Hopefully everyone elses can follow suit... MSC office needs to get its ish together lol

I dont know either... I feel like noone really knows what the process truly is lol

wow thats awesome! what office is your case in?

Thank you for letting me know! I will try that.

Hi guys, I called last night and was on hold for an hour!! for USCIS to give me a ridiculous nothing pretty much. They told me it would take approx 30 days to get a response regarding the MSC filing and why my husband still hasnt received biometrics. They told me that they were backed up and that they dont know when the file would get transferred. I basically got no update guys  They told me that if we dont get any notice within the next 30 days, we need to call back.

@Rose Iaquinto I agree  

WOW, that is the most helpful thing I have heard from USCIS. Thank you so so much for sharing that with us! I hope that they just use our original biometrics.
