My case was finally approved. I never filed N400, just the I-751. Took exactly 29 months. No interview, no RFEs. I hope others here get their approvals soon too!
What service center? We also only filled the I-751 but haven’t heard anything back yet 😭

How long does this process seem to take I applied for i-751 on 9/03/21? Last update was February of last year but also received 48 month extension yesterday
Same here! We are SRC center filers back in September 21 and just got the 48 month extension yesterday, but that’s it.

Biometrics waiver letter received today! SRC service center. My case wasn't updated online, but I did receive the letter in the mail today! I am glad to see SRC is catching up to everyone!

I was reading the news today that there may be immediate cash payments to Americans as part of a potential coronavirus stimulus package to help boost the economy.
If this is approved and goes ahead I wonder if this will be for permanent residents too and if so would this affect the concern that the other user expressed?
Wondering the same thing? My husband has his Green Card working in a restaurant that recently closed because of COVID-19. I know everyone he works with is going to collect unemployment but this seems like a grey area for immigrants.

Just in case somebody from KCMO stumbles along this post during their visa journey.
We were helped by a very helpful woman at the gladstone DMV (would 10/10 recommend going there). She made a call and was able to get my husband's drivers license extended for 90 days at a time. She said we could do this up to three times and that hopefully it would last until our AOS interview. We had to go back and get another person at the DMV to renew it a second time (worked again) which was enough to last us until the interview. All we had to do was bring his expired license and the I797C form!
Hope this helps someone in the future

Sure.
We really weren't asked too many questions. She just went over the information that was on our I-485 to verify that it was correct and then she asked all of those questions that are on the I-485, like "have you done anything illegal". It seemed to be more of a conversation. She asked us how we met, looked through our pictures, asked for our documentation that we brought as proof of marriage. When I told her that it was easier than we expected and that we were really nervous she kind of laughed and said that it isn't like the movies or TV shows portray immigration. She said that judging by our paperwork and the way we acted together she could tell that we were genuine. It really was just us going over our paperwork with her and her telling us the next steps. As evidence of our marriage we brought health insurance, proof from work that I added my husband as my beneficiary, about 20 pictures together, all of our travel documentation from trips we have taken together, our car insurance and our bank information. It was definitely a pleasant experience!

K1 AOS I-485
Part 2 Question 1a.
Interesting, thanks for the reply! Why did you have to send in a copy of your NOA1? Isn't that just the notice of receipt of application that you get a few days after sending in the original I-129F?
I think we just did it for extra measure and then realized we didn't need to send the NOA1 later.
-
We had to do this with our NOA1 because we forgot to make a photocopy and couldn't find the original document. We just submitted our AOS paperwork last month so we haven't gotten an RFE but it probably hasn't even been looked at. Just wanted you to know that you are not alone!

My fiance won't even receive his K1 visa until Oct/Nov and by the time we marry and apply for his green card, we may not get it, according to these new regulations. The credit checks and 250% over poverty level is too much. This excludes (and I'm sure on purpose) those coming here from poorer countries, who also have lower income families that are supporting them. I make enough to support both of us until he can start working legally but not at 250%! This reeks of not only racism but of class-ism as well.
Finally, a comment on this thread that I can actually agree with. We received a K1 visa because I (the sponsor) make over the 125% poverty guideline. I'm a couple thousand dollars off of the 250% guideline which means if I applied for this later, we wouldn't have gotten the visa. This is insane to me, since we are living with no issue on my below 250% salary. It is just a way to keep more people out of this country and I am amazed to see so many supportive comments on an IMMIGRATION forum. Immigration is already expensive and hard enough, I am totally against making it EVEN harder for people who are working their ### off for this already.

I was not able to get a DL in St. Louis until I got my EAD. Didn't want to get one which would expire with the K1 because I was using my old DL.
So I did all the exams with I-94 and visa and went to the DMV once I've got my EAD.
These are the accepted documents for REAL ID:

Looks like they still dont' accept the 797C which you will get once filed for AOS. Maybe you can who knows.
Thank you

The I-94 date won’t change. He will be in a period of authorized stay once you have the NOA1 for the AOS packet you submit. He will have to wait until he has an EAD before he can get another license. One of the (many) pitfalls of the K-1...
Damn, well we knew it was going to be harder with the K-1. Just didn’t factor in all of the little things and forgot about the license. Not the end of the world, but would have made life easier.

Once the I94 expires, it expires.
Some states offer extension of the temporary 90 day license by showing the I485 Noa1 receipt notice but most will not.
Most states will only issue a license once the EAD or GC is approved and that was something that we just accepted as we knew that when we came in on a K1 Visa.
If you needed to drive, a Spousal Visa would have been better.
Check your state's DMV for documents required for Non US Citizen DLs.
It varies by state.
Yeah, we fully understand what we took on choosing the K1... just want to check our options on driving. The DMV webpage says that for adjusting status you need “Immigration documentation indicating status AND one of the following : 1.) employment authorization document I-688B or I-766
2.)Passport “ -

Just want to comment on it. I was there today trying to get a driver's license... They didn't care about the NOA1, only if I would get the NOA2 which is basically being approved for the green card. They told me they can't do anything, the only way according to them is i-94 + Passport which is basically the K1 status and even if i pass the license would expire when my I-94, so I am back to square one.
Hi, we are living in KC and basically experiencing the same thing. They gave my husband a license but the expiration date is at the beginning of September (when his i-94 expires). I was wondering if you’ve gotten anymore info or anything on this? The DMV website says that for licenses during AOS they need “immigration documentation indicating status and one of the following : employment authorization document i688B or i-766 or a passport”
this makes me think that the NOA would be the immigration documentation indicating status and then you would only need your passport. Of course all of this is fine and dandy, and the DMV can decide what they want. We have found that the gladstone DMV is a lot friendly than the others, so we will most likely go there when we get the NOA

My fiancé entered the US and came to live in KC on June 9th. We got married July 6th, we were able to get his social security card and a drivers license for him. When we went to the DMV they were able to issue him a drivers license but they said they could only issue it to the date of expiration on his I-94 which is in September. My question is, we are going to send all of our paperwork in for AOS on Monday, when USCIS receives this, I know we will get a 797 but will it change the I-94 date or update it? It looks like the MO dmv will only accept a passport and I-94 for K1 visa applicants. Any help is appreciated.

I-751 September 2021 Filers
in Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion

Not that I am aware of. I just saw on the USCIS website that it went from pending that entire time to approved as of yesterday.
