WOW, it was fast. were did you file?
We filed at California Service Center (CSC). They seem to be about a month ahead of Vermont Service Center which is finishing December and doing some January petitions. You will probably here something in the next 2-3 weeks.
I've just received phone call from immigration - the person was asking if I'm such and such but it wasn't my name. Then asked if I'm a wife of -my husband name- and I said 'yes' and introduced myself- He just said 'aha' and hung up on me. My husband received a missed call from the same number around the same time.. it was (800)376-5283 Did any of you get it?? It's Saturday!
weird. Did you send them enough evidence?
Joint: taxes for 07' 08' 09' , bank statements, health insurance, utility bills, apartment lease, photos, some other bills, junk mail... It sounded like there were looking for another person but very weird...
Hello everyone!
Today we received a text message and email that USCIS mailed the approval letter on March 27th. I just checked the mailbox and we received two letters: (1) approval letter, and (2) the permanent green card is for 10 years with a new category IR6 (Spouse of a US Citizen). Don't lose hope (especially those of you who filed in VSC), you will receive yours...it just take some time.
Here is our timeline:
• 02/08/2010 I-751 package mailed to CSC
• 02/09/2010 I-751 package received (entered into their system 02/10)
• 02/12/2010 check cleared (deposited 02/10)
• 02/16/2010 1st I-797C - Notice of Action (NOA): I-751 received (prepared 02/10; mailed 02/11)

I think what you sent is fine...very similar to what we sent to them when we filed our I-751. I had heard that sometimes they do phone interviews, but they act professionally while doing that especially they introduced themselves. So, your call just seems odd. I wouldn't worry about that...wait until you get something official from them (i.e. request for evidence or interview).
Are you sure that is the number? The official number for USCIS is (800)375-5283
yes, sorry that what it was. Any clue why would they call?
no, did you have any LUD's?

It seems that Vermont is finishing the December cases and beginning to approve the January ones. You should hear something this month. California (CSC) is like a month and an half ahead of Vermont. In general, for the past couple of years, California is ahead of Vermont.

yes, usually after they approved the petition, it takes about a week to get the card.
