i-751 filers August/September 2011

I see time to remove the conditions is taking over 4-5 months.

This is even longer than getting AOS interview.

Is this normal? Why they take such long time to approve I-751?

May be they know these taxpayers are stuck and have noway to go so better utilize time and resources to get newones in rather than old ones;););)
 
According to the latest case processing information released a couple of days ago, on January 31, 2012 the Vermont Service Center was processing I-751 that where filed on June 20, 2011. The national expectation is 6 months, however, it is currently taking Vermont about 7 and a half months to process applications.

OK, I found mine online with the biometrics receipt number. Thank you for that info.
It says initial review.

Vermont Service Center says 7.5 months to process 751 :(
So I still have about 2 to 4 weeks I guess.

Just checked my status and see the same red "OMB control number" at the bottom. Smart asses from government like to confuse their taxpayers with secret abbreviations.

OMB means "Office of Management and Budget"

Just statistics I guess. Nothing to do with us.

Still no news my side about 751. :(

I'll be eligible to apply for citizenship at the end of May, so I hope I get my card soon.


Can you apply before 90 days of your 3rd anniversary. I am under the impression that you can only apply after 3rd anniversary because that was exactly what I was told by my interviewing Immigration officer.
 
Hello,

Just sharing some information regards to I-751 processing timeline at Vermont Service Center:

I called USCIS customer service this morning, as it's been over 9 months since USCIS received my I-751 on August 2, 2011.
The lady told me Vermont service center is currently working on the cases received on July 4, 2011, so apparently it takes longer than the 8 months timeline listed on USCIS website.
I guess I should expect my result next month, hopefully in early June before my 3rd wedding anniversary. :)

In that case I should expect mine somewhere around July end or Aug since there would be 2 long weekends coming in this period Memorial Day and Independence Day
 
Thank you LuckyGal2.
That means I'll most likely get mine towards the end of July.

I'm going to go ahead and send in my Citizenship application next month anyway.
 
Hello,

I got an email from USCIS at 2pm this noon and it said, "Your Case Status: Card/ Document Production."
"On May 31, 2012, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you............"

I assumed they approved my case, after the 10-month waiting :)

I'm going to send out N-400 Citizenship application soon in the mid of June.

Wish everyone here the best of luck. 10-year green card finally, and it's worth waiting :eek:

Do you see any status change on USCIS website or it is still showing as "Initial Review"?:confused:
 
Congrats LuckyGal2

Congrats! You are indeed a lucky gal. My application was received by USCIS mid-August. I'm still waiting, online status shows "initial review".
 
Hi Sanket_82,
To answer your question I just checked my online status and it showed, "On May 31, 2012, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you. If we need something from you we will contact you. If you move before you receive the card, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283."

I signed for case auto update by email, and according to my I-485 and I-751 experience, emails always came first to update me the latest status. I'm not sure if they update the online status right the way, as I checked it a day after I got the email and it reflected the current status.

Hi Sag408,
I believe you'll receive your result soon, as my application was received by USCIS only few weeks earlier than yours. Hopefully you'll get good news soon.
 
Approved!

My conditions have been removed after 9 1/2 months of waiting! Letter arrived today. Didn't get an email despite signing up for them. Online case status still shows "Initial Review". Decision date was June 4th, postmark shows June 5th.
 
We sent our I-751 to Vermont during the first week of January. Based on the dates on the website, I would have imagined hearing back around the middle of August, however, now it looks like it is going to be some time in September before we are going to hear back from them.

My question is if Vermont is so far behind, how come applications are not being transferred to other service centers to help speed up the processing?
