@ChrisMcFisch So we only went to one immigration lawyer so far, and all he said was to wait to hear back and there was nothing much he could do unless we want to sue USCIS, which will also take time because they have so many legal actions against them as well. Our senator liaison just told us that our case is indeed in the local field office, and they are handling most of their backlogs so I will have to wait. He also suggested applying for citizenship.

Yeah, unfortunately, it is the same pattern. I read on some other forum some people who submitted their cases in 2021 and 2022 already got approved, which pisses me off... Why aren't they looking at cases in 2019?? Same here. Naturalization is not an option for me because I can't hold dual citizenship... Here is an article on how you can submit the Mandamus yourself. Hope this helps.

Hi Chris, I'm still waiting as well.. submitted 751 since Nov 2019.. got an update on Oct 2022 stating that they used the biometrics. nothing since then.. like you we did everything from submitting request online, to asking help from senators, to seeking a lawyer's advice.. nothing worked.. all they do is ask you why don't you apply for citizenship when you already can? And to wait... The latest I-551 stamp I got is on a i-94 paper.. which is another joke.. Our case was originally sent to NBC then transferred to local office and now it's just sitting there building spider webs.. I doubt they are doing anything about it at all.. I'm tempted to do the mandamus but we don't have 5-10k sitting around just for this.. sorry that this won't be much of help.. just me venting as well.. if you're looking to travel, the i551 stamp will get you back in the country.. I've used them a few times traveling now..

Thank you for the awesome and detailed WOM process @igoyougoduke. I am really tempted to start the WOM process for my case. It's just a long process. Submitted my I-751 since Nov 2019 and nothing yet. Its been 43 months and 3 weeks. I just saw another post that newer cases are getting approved faster? That is really upsetting.. And calling USCIS to get my extension ADIT stamp has been really frustrating as well. They don't allow people to set up appt to go to the field office to get the stamp anymore and they will mail you the stamp. I have to wait for 15 "Business" days for field office to contact me to inform me that they will mail it out. And its been 14 days in my books but its not in theirs.. they set the time but kept extending them... And it will take them 7 days to mail it out. By that time, I think my current stamp will be expired. Just very frustrating.. Sorry I'm just venting... I wish and pray that someone will contact me soon. I saw your timeline your ROC got approved? That's great!

Got it, thank you!

How do you send in a Writ of Mandamus? Do I need to hire a lawyer to do that? Last online status was back in Oct 2022, stating "Case was updated to show fingerprints were taken".. No divorce waivers. We are very happily married.

Yes, it is scary and frustrating. No, I have not applied for N-400 yet. and no I have not received my 10 years green card yet... Still waiting for a response... 3 years 6months and counting.... Anyone has any advice on how do you get your field office to look at the 1751, other than proceeding with N400 will be much appreciated. Thank you!

Hello anyone got any updates for I751 Nov 2019 submission? I have not heard anything back at all since 2022.

It is really frustrating.. We went to a lawyer recently to ask what can be done to get the USCIS to work on our case.. and his advise is to wait... he said the USCIS gets hundreds of legal letter a day, and he don't think it will change much.. I also submitted a few inquiries to USCIS since April 2022, no response as well.. Not sure what else can we do.. I have not been home since Covid happened and I miss my family and friends.. I'm planning to go back next year.. fingers crossed I will get my GC by then.. but i doubt it... Good luck to you..

Hi there, It's been awhile... anyone has any updates on their I-751 filed in Nov 2019, case number start with LIN ??? At first we filed at Nebraska (2019), then they transferred to NBC (2020), then I called them last month saying that it was back to Nebraska, called again a week after now it's back to NBC.. Is this a game? I really dont know....... Nothing from my end as well... Just got another ADIT I-551 Stamp on my passport again last week for another 1 year extension... I just want my GC... and move forward.... from this craziness... this is so frustrating...

Congratulations @lottles!!! So glad that its all set and done for you! Thanks for sharing your experience! Still nothing from my end.. still waiting.... Good luck in your next journey!!
