Hi Guys, have been reading this topic fort he past year, have never commented but was curious to see the timelines.

I have sent out my package end of November, had my fingerprints done on the 5th of January and waited and waited just like you all and on September 5th I received the dreaded RFE (more financial prove, since we have no accounts together). 2 days later found out that my father was hospitalized with lung cancer, flew home without having time to respond to the RFE, 1 week later my father passed away. So with all of the craziness finally on October 8th they received my response (explaining that my husband has bad credit history and we did not to make mine bad too, also included this year's tax returns, plus new lease agreement). Yesterday received a letter with first word Congratulations! What a relief after all that I have been through lately... Hang in there and it will come. Congratulations to everyone approved and to all other I hope you get good news soon!

I'm very sorry to hear about your father. Congratulations on the approval, it is quite a process!

Hope you are all safe through Hurricane Sandy. I live in NY and we got hit pretty hard here. People are still without power and many businesses are still closed. NYC got hit much worse but thankfully all my family and friends are safe that live around here!

Hey everyone,

I was in the forum thought to drop by and say Hi.. Oh, btw, I just started a new journey for my N-400. Wish me luck. I want to get this over with.

I hope everyone is doing wonderful. Sorry to hear some are having trouble. (those damn RFEs!!!)

-Cathy

Good luck with your N-400!! I too hope everyone here still waiting receives their GC soon...

I sent a message to SHANNON♥NICK, they had an RFE a few weeks ago, and are waiting to hear back. I guess I am the only one left not hearing anything at all?

They have at least updated the processing times on the USCIS website, and it says they are processing October 24th.

* sigh*

Oh you definitely have a reason to call now! I'm sorry it's taking so long...that is so frustrating Did they mention when the RFE was? I'll update the list.

August 15, 2012

I'd love to call them, but as the website says they are working on September, I am not really out of processing time yet. Doubt they would do a thing about it. Not helped by all the bits of paper I would need to make the call are back at home, and I am still in TN with my husband. He is out of the hospital, and stays here at the Lodge, only going in a few times a week for lab work. I still have no idea when they will cut us loose.

I'm sorry things are still rough with your husband, I hope they improve quickly! I know their website says they haven't gotten to October yet, but we know they have so maybe it's worth a call anyway? You might get lucky and speak with someone who move along your process and wouldn't that be great?

Any news from those who had received RFEs?

August 12, 2012

hey guyz how are ya? my green card will expire on 12/10/2012, when ican apply for ROC? thank you so much...

I believe you mean December 10, 2012 it expires (not October 12, 2012) in which case you are not late at all and can't file until September 13, 2012 at the EARLIEST.

August 12, 2012

Just heard from a friend of mine. She filed December 4th, and she just got her ten year card. Also with VCS.

Starting to wonder....have they overlooked me?

You know, I was wondering what happened to your approval... :unsure: You and Shannon&Nick are the last to be approved without hearing anything else (everyone else has a pending RFE, FALOAK is waiting on fingerprints and Mrs. Palmer hasn't signed in in almost a year...)

Maybe it's time to put in that call and ask to speak with a level 2 officer? Tell them people who filed in Dec are getting approved and ask about your application. It's sitting in some pile somewhere there..they just need to look through and stamp APPROVED on it!

Not sure if I mentioned this earlier or not but Phil and I found a place in NY and we are moving Sept 1st! We're very excited It feels like we're starting fresh with USCIS being over with, starting new jobs and moving closer to family. All good things! :luv:

Updating my actual date on letter (7/24 vs. 7/27 on email). We were able to get back in the country at ATL POE without too much hassle. Although the officer looked at hubby's extension letter and said "You've had this for almost a year and it still hasn't been approved?" as if it were our fault. I told him it had actually been approved while we were gone but the card was waiting for us at home and I could show him the approval email if he wanted, but he didn't ask for it. They drive me crazy! Glad we are good for 10 years! The new gc is pretty and a lot different!

Anyone know what "New Classification Symbol: IF1" means?

Glad you got back in the US ok! Not sure what IF1 means but Phil's says that too.

So I received this beautiful three blue pages stating "USCIS has been unable to obtain a required FBI criminal background clearance for you because both sets of FP were rejected as unclassifiable by the FBI"

Submit the following evidence instead of a FINGERPRINT clearance to satisfy the criminal background check requirement:

1. Your own signed affidavit regarding criminal history supported by police clearances or police records from each place you resided from the date you acquired conditional PR status to the date of this request.

No fingerprint is required and what I need is to write my own signed affidavit-no notarized is required. Is that correct?

2. ...

3. Locally issued police clearance instead of state issued police clearance. You are required to submit locally issued police clearance from localities that do not offer state issued police clearance.

The cities I was in previously do not issue the police clearance (they are in the same county though) but I can get the police clearance from the county sherrif office instead. Is the county police clearance will be ok / accepted by USCIS ?

Thanks everyone for your respond. One more hurdle to get thru all this.

Hopefully after you're through this step you will get your approval and GC quickly! I'm not sure about the county clearance's so hopefully someone else can shed some light on that!
