My status changed to "New Card Is Being Produced" on Saturday. This was the first update since Nov 2021 that my case was ready to be scheduled for an interview. No interview was necessary and I hope they get the card sent out shortly before I get too excited.

Received my new GC today, a little over 2 weeks after my approval notice.

Applied in 2021. Received the 48 months extension a week and a half ago and my approval without interview Saturday/yesterday. I was very surprised in a positive way.

Just received my extension letter for 48 months. So at least my recent address change worked.

Hello all, I joined this group back in 2018 and I learned and also shared my experiences. It has been a tough journey with alot of Patience.  TODAY I AM GLAD TO TELL YOU ALL THAT I AM OFFICIALLY AN AMERICAN. Oath ceremony was Yesterday everything went well, I registered to vote and will apply for My passport tomorrow.  Your turn is coming sooner than you espected. God bless you all.

It just updates of life between me and my wife. Different leases. New insurances and renewals with recent dates, pictures of kids birthday and travel itenary ,joint bank statements  recent month.My case made almost 2 years. I will say like one year 8 months cos I applied on 02/2021 for i751, then applied on 02/2022 for N400. SO I think you are within normal time frame.

Update on My Case. I just Passed The Interview. A simple Clean Process. Takes about 15 Minute I spent in total of 25 mins in the Building. My i751 was recently approved so she didn't even ask for no document aside of Passport and Green card. This is the easiest stage of The entire Immigration Process so Don't worry about Anything.
UPDATE: Oath Ceremony  on the 22nd of this month.

Hello, just an update. A year ender surprise. My new card is being produced as of yesterday December 30, 2022 without interview. I filed last February 2021 and I came here as spouse visa. My case was stuck to Case Is Ready to Be Scheduled for an Interview since November 24, 2021. I expected it to take longer than usual process since I have an MSC case. I even changed address while waiting for my greencard. I had my biometrics in North Carolina then months after transferred my address to NJ. I only followed up my case last November 2021, I only used the chat customer service from the USCIS website just to verify if they have my new address. I regularly check my case status hoping for good news. It wasn’t an easy process for me, I also went through a lot of stress and anxiety but I just have to be strong. Patience is a virtue. 
 
Hoping everyone will receive good news this coming New Year! have a blessed New Year to everyone!

Here's my experience flying from Paris CDG to San Francisco SFO recently with extension letter.
 
The airline I flew was United. The mobile check in required uploading passport and other documents in their Travel Ready Center. I decided not to bother with it and just showed to the check in desk. It appears that some passengers who checked in using Travel Ready Center still had to wait in line (pointless).
 
While in the line for the check in, a security person came around with machine for reading passports. He swiped my European passport, started looking for visa, at which point I presented my expired Green Card. He swiped it through the machine too. I had my extension letter ready, which I immediately presented. He referred to his colleague and showed him the extension letter. The whole procedure took about 45 seconds.
 
Once I approached check in desk, had to present my passport and GC again. I had extension letter ready in my hands, and the airline agent only asked: "Is this 12 months extension letter?" To which I answered it was 24 months. She did not bother looking at it.
 
At SFO, I headed to Global Entry line. It was surprisingly long but moved fast. 
 
First, I needed to go to the kiosk. There were two types. The first few were new, with facial recognition. They said something like "Touch to begin". The older were a bit further and they had message similar to "Scan your document to begin".
 
I quickly realized the ones requiring docs may not work correctly with expired GC, so I went to the facial recognition one. Took few seconds to align face, take a picture. It printed receipt with my photo and details (name, nationality etc). With this receipt, I proceeded to CBP, who only briefly (2 seconds) looked at my GC and let me through. I didn't have to present my extension letter at this point.
 
Overall, the process was easy and painless.
I think the following things helped:
1. I had all documentation, and unexpired extension letter.
2. I had TSA precheck and Global Entry
3. The travel was with a big US airline
4. The travel was between major airports
5. The facial recognition GE kiosk was available and used by me.
 
Safe travels everybody!
 
 
 
 
 

Got back from Philippines yesterday. I cannot believe it but I'm relieved that the check in with customs was 200% easy! 
I went home to pick up my son (IR2) so we needed a lot of documents to get in right?
 
But lo and behold, they checked his passport with visa and mine was of course extension letter and expired green card. Took 5 minutes. 
 
Thanks be to God!
 

Travelled to the Caribbean this summer and just returned with expired GC and extension letter. 
 
When I checked in, the agent at the desk asked for my GC and when he saw it was expired asked for my extension letter which I presented. When I went to board the agent specifically asked if I was the one who had the extension letter when I told him my green card had expired. Apparently the first agent called to let them know someone had the extension letter and he wanted to make sure it was the 24 months extension. His words not mine. He double checked, said thanks and enjoy my flight. At JFK I presented both GC and extension to agent. He made small talk with me when going over my stay and documents then sent me on my way. Overall it was a smooth process! 
 
 

I received a notification that “We have taken an action on your case”. Though, no progress or updates yet. 

My timeline is similar. They receive my Form mid March 2021.

Thanks you and here you go. MSC. Apparently after the "Ready to schedule" status , it all depends on your local office backlog. 
 
January 27, 2022 Interview Was Scheduled November 3, 2021 We are ready to schedule your Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence, for an interview. February 19, 2021 We received your Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence.

Hi All
 
On the day of my interview, my husband stayed outside because the letter didn't said he has to come with me and when I asked in the entrance they told me no. When the USCIS officer called me in, we went inside to her office and she asked me if I brought any new documents/photos to add to what she already had. Then she ask where is my husband, I told her outside and she said he needed to come in and asked for his phone number and called him to come inside, meanwhile she asked basic personal info like full name, DOB, SSN and what was new in our relationship since I became a permanent resident and what were the plans for the future, meanwhile she also look through the pictures and documents I brought. When My husband came in she asked him the same questions she previously asked me and everything matched. Then she said I was approved and that I could apply for citizenship soon. In general she was very nice.
 
The extra documents I brought were:
 
- Recent pictures since I became a conditional resident.
- Wedding albums for both my civil and wedding celebration.
- Mortgage statements and dead for our new home
- New of car title/Insurance
- Job benefit/insurance cards with both our names
- Utility bills
-Christmas cards
-Mail directed to both of us
 

Good morning all
 
I just wanted to share the news with you that I had my interview yesterday and got my conditions removed!! this morning I got the notification that my new card is being produced!!
 
Hopefully you will get yours soon!
 
 

I am in the Dallas Area

Hi 
 
I finally got my appointment for January 18th. The letter explains Covid protocols what and who to bring. Something strange, in the section "who should come with you" doesn't say I have to bring my husband. He will go with me anyway just to be safe.

No updated extension letter yet but "Case Is Ready To Be Scheduled For An Interview", 100 days after Biometrics
