I don't think you're the only one who has that situation. Look at my timeline, I also first received approval letter in snail mail, then an e-mail update that came late after the fact that I already got and know my approval status, then no e-mail update of GC being ordered, then a surprise of GC came in snail mail, online status now still only says "approval notice sent", not GC production already ordered. Like you, I can't figure out what's going on with government efficiency. :devil:

First of all, sorry that you're experiencing this difficult situation. Second, I agree with milimelo on two points (#1) you've already paid once and never received what you paid for, why do you have to pay again? (#2) GC is a very important document and there were mysterious disappearance before, why can't USCIS switch to a trackable mail? Also if USCIS has no evidence to support their claim of the GC ever been sent out except that's what "they say", you can say "I say that I never received it" as well, what kind of law governs the benefit of doubt has to be on the USCIS's side? Third, I would suggest you to contact senator office right away and definitely fight for not paying again. Good Luck! Please feel free to come back here if you have any more questions and also let us know your most recent update because your experience and posting might help others who may be having the same situation.

thank veryone

Hi simosonia,

I think you got your biometric appointment letter and didn't get your NOA (Notice of Action) which is application acceptance receipt plus extension of your resident status (work + stay) for 1 year while your case is being processed.

I would suggest you make an infopass appointment for your nearest USCIS field office.

https://infopass.uscis.gov/info_en.php

Will tell you the field based on your location.

On the 1st page choose "You need Service on a case that has already been filed " and then on the next page choose "If it has been over 45 days since you contacted NCSC and have not received a response to your inquiry. You must bring the Service Request ID Number related to your inquiry to the appointment."

Go to Info pass appointment before appointment time (10-30 mins) and ask the IO (Immigration Officer) that you applied for I-751 and didn't get NOA and would like I-551 stamp on your passport.

Since you didn't get the NOA they will easily give you a stamp on your passport which will extend your work and stay for 1 year (which is 1 year added to the date your GC expires e.g GC expires 05-01-009 will be extended to 05-01-10)

NOA and I-551 stamp are the same thing which are equivalent to having a temporary GC till you get 10 year GC.

Infopass is appointment with the IO (Immigration Officer) at your near by field office to help with your case etc.

Good Luck.

And btw, staff at biometrics appointment can only take your picture, fingerprints and signature. They can't or don't have the authority to stamp your passport with the I-551 stamp, the only way to get the stamp is to make infopass appointment like Immigrant2009 said and get it at your local office. You can also request at the infopass appointment that they send a duplicate NOA since it's considered as "lost in mail" after 45 days. You also need to confirm with your local office that USCIS has input your correct address, down to the spelling and especially with the apartment or suite number (if you have), during your infopass appointment to make sure that duplicate NOA is send to the correct address this time. Hope all these help!

Good evening my fellow VJers,
I finally got the GC in mail today 7/6/09, the letter dated 6/25/09, envelope stamped 7/1/09. Joyful tears !

Question is: my GC expiration date is 10 years from my I-751 approval date which is 6/17/2019, is that normal/correct? I thought the new GC expiration date is 10 years extension from original approval date/2 yr GC date which would be 4/23/2019.

Btw, I don't have a magnifying glass and I don't want to spend more money so I can't tell if the last tiny little last circle at the back is Obama or Bush. As you can tell, I don't quite care but as far as I see, there's no update on GC design.

Thanks for everyone's support and wish everyone else who hasn't got approval yet have smooth and speedy journey!

In the happy lala land,

jasminelily

Hi jasminelily,

Congratulations!!!! YAY. Very happy for you my dear fellow VJer. The wait is indeed finally over for you. Now you will apply for N400 next year. Hope that goes smooth for you. Good Luck for it.

Thanks Thanks! Yours will be there soon! Hang in there! My best wishes to you!

Thanks for the kind wishes. I did call National Service Center with magic option 1,2,3. But the operator told me the same thing. She was reading from a script or something. I asked her a lot of my friends applied after me and got approved and she said it depends on the case to case basis. I requested her to let me talk to supervisor or Immigration Officer, the supervisor said the same thing. But were polite and courteous and so was I, but I wanna know what's going on? :(. Almost 5 months now and no response.

Sorry but it's your thread for celebration. I can only Imagine what a joy it must be have the GC in hand for which you wait over 4 months.

Well I did complain to my senator about broken commnunication channels. I suggest you do it if you don't get anything when you reach 6 months since now 6 months is the standard processing time. Still wish it will be there for you before 6 months. :star:
