| Embassy Review : |
Very smooth experience. I was ultra prepared and had every document possible. I suggest you bring anything you can think of as they asked me for a tax return I didn't expect. The agent was super nice and the interview lasted 2 minutes. They just asked my longest trip to US (to check I'm not lying), when I first visited my spouse and when we married. |

| Embassy Review : |
Crossed at st Bernard de lacolle / Plattsburgh. It was smooth and the agents looked like they processed these routinely every other hour. Friday night took literally 5 min to stamp passport and we went on our way. They took the car while we were in the consular area but didn't check any of my boxes or ask about anything. |

Timeline Comments: 6 JD2 on 2024-12-21 said: Did your I-751 get approved before your Conditional Green Card expired?
Sorry late reply but yes. It was approved right before expiry.
JD2 on 2025-05-28 said: Did you get the 10 year Green Card? How long from I-751 approval to Green Card Received?
Yes. It took about 3 months to get the 10 year green card but I think I am an outlier. Most people wait years.
JD2 on 2025-05-28 said: I mean from your approval to when it came in the mail. How long did it take?
3-4 weeks. It was very quick
*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
