Just got my 48 month extension. Filed December 2022. Previously received the standard 24 months. 

Wow - what a complete and utter mess.

Lol exactly the same thing happened to me. They ended up switching to my new address after I filed the I-751

Received my i797 today dated 12/15.

Received the SMS from USCIS this morning. I am assigned to YSC. See you all in 2 years I guess 😅

Um, I got approved with just a letter (and so did a bunch of other people in this thread). 

Got my green card today. See you all in 2023 for ROC!

I submitted for my renewal just before my interview. Honestly, I am glad that I did. Technically USCIS has 120 days to provide you with a response after the interview. I would have hated to lose my job due to lack of work authorization while waiting for my green card. Anyway, up to you. Its a short and free form so perhaps just worth doing it?

If it makes you feel any better, mine took less than the estimated time. About 12 months all in all. That seems to be a common experience for DC. All this is to say, I have no idea what these estimated time ranges actually mean. 

Take a photocopy too. If they want to keep something they will keep the copy. 

Wow has it been over a year since I last posted and updated???? So back in January 8, 2021, my wife and children received their I-797C's notifying them their AOS interview was scheduled for Feb. 11, 2021. I panicked because my wife has been hospitalized for almost a year now and there was no way she is ambulatory! I contacted the local congressman and his office told me to reschedule the interview. The USCIS number that I called, (listed on the I-797C) would not allow me to make changes. I can't visit my wife due to the COVID-19 lockdown. I sent her a photo of the message and she changed her interview date for her and the daughter, (they were all given the same day and time for AOS interview). That left me driving the son down to Philadelphia for the interview. However, the night before, my wife tells me to bring the daughter with the prospects that they may be able to interview her also. We got down to the USCIS office in Phila. the investigator asks me about my wife's condition then steps out for a moment. She talks to my son for a few moments and then asks the daughter a few simple questions: Where do you go to school?, Do you like it?, etc. At the conclusion the investigator tells me that my wife qualifies for a medical waiver and does not need to attend the interview! All 3 were granted their AOS. The person said that the green cards should arrive within 2-4 weeks! I couldn't of asked for anything better! I do have to put a shout-out for the people there at the USCIS, the security, the staff, all of them. They were very pleasant in dealing not only with us but with others! I never would have expected that kind of treatment! They were first rate and I thanked everyone of them! Next stop, lifting the conditions!
