May 2009 | I-751 Filers

Urgent!

Hello!

I sent my I-571 this month and got NOA today saying that may green card has been extended for one year and I will receive another letter for biometrics appointment.
Should I be worried about the statement regarding green card being extended for 1 year? Is this bad? Does it mean that it will take longer to remove conditions??
:confused::confused::confused::confused:
 
There is no correlations between getting 1 year extention and processing time. As you can see on the timeline for some of the lucky few that MYREDSKINS has posted, they got the approval even with the extension. I think this is an automatic extension for all removal cases.

I won't worry if you are getting the NOA in a timely fashion. The thing to worry about if when you get a RFE.

Good luck.

I also noticed that those that got approved way sooner than the pack also did walk-up BIO. Any connection? Does this push them to look at the case sooner?

My file have been touch and only the date was updated to today (7/15). Status no change.

My biometric appointment came within a month of the extension letter. And its been 6 weeks since I had my bio done, but still no LUD on my case. Someone said VSC is approving in about 124 days, will see about that. 10 more weeks then.

Everyone gets a one year extension. Approval is within 6 months of filing in Vermont.

I would not worry on that, did you register and added the case to your portfolio and check the last updated date there? What date is it showing?

Clearly. This is also very stressful. Even I fill in CSC... I am loosing sleep over it due to the stress.

I just went on USCIS website and I no longer see I-751 processing time in either of the processing center. It started with CSC a few days back. I wonder why? I know that they were updating their website last night because I went on after 12am and the server was unavailable.

Any thoughts?

Ok, I just wanna make sure we are looking at the same spot. If I just check my case status it shows They received my paperwork.. But when i created a login name and password and added the case to my portfolio it has a different Last Updated Date which is not explaining what was updated just a date.. rigth after my BIO... so make sure you registered and added the case to your portfolio and check the last updated date there.
On some forums I saw that we could call (dunno if still the same coz those were old posts) FBI and ask if they got or processed the fingerprints. I didnt do that yet but probably will try.

I asked this question to my lawyer last month and he does not have an explaination. Personal explanation is that both service centers (Cali and Vermont) achieved the USCIS goal of 6 months or less that is why is not on the list. In brief, it means that the USCIS goal of processing I-751 was met (which is less than 6 months). Hope this will explain.

Number according to the bellow post is: 304-625-5590 or 304-625-2406.

I m not sure if this works, i quote the guy:

"Fingerprints taken at USCIS goes to FBI for background checks. Once your biometrics is complete you can call the FBI to find out whether your fingerprint report has been sent back to the USCIS or not. They WILL NOT tell you whether your fingerprints were rejected or if anything negative was found, instead they will just tell you whether or not FBI has processed your biometrics. The number to call is: 304-625-5590 or 304-625-2406. They will ask for your Alien Registration #, so have that handy......We tried this a week after our biometrics and the FBI told us that our fingerprints were sent back to the USCIS a few days after the bio appointment."

Here is the topic -- someone didnt have LUD after bio so they advised to call:

Hi guys,
Time has flown by so quickly from the time we all first made this journey in '07! Good to see Praetorian and myredskins still being active and helpful participants here :) My turn to file for the I-751 will be in the first fews days of Sept.

Quick question here, when I filed for and received my Permanent Residency status I was living in Delaware; I moved to NJ to be with my husband in early May. Subsequently, I completed the online change of address and my husband,too, sent and received the confirmation for sponsor's change of address.

I have a nagging doubt that the USCIS might just send something important to my former residence in DE inspite of all these address change notifications.

Has anyone have a similar experience and how did you deal with it? Thanks, guys,

Hi k.ambrose,

I have also changed my address but the first notice (the info notice for the 90 days period) went to my old address. It wasnt a problem because that notice is not at all important and I have relatives there so they gave it to me. After that I got worried and called the customer service number and they told me all communications will be sent to my address indicated on the I-751 form. So far I got all the NOA-s to my new address.. Lets hope they will keep sending all the important stuff to my new address.
If you have to file in September u must have already gotten that first notice telling that you need to file in 90 days. Which address did they send that notice to you?
 
Ofcourse LUD works

In the NOA1 noticed it is mentioned CLEARLY that you can access your account number ONLY after your bio appointment. I am surprised that you guys consider this like magic or something phenomenal but it is mentioned clearly. No offense.

Hi davben,
Hmmm... I haven't received any notice as yet from the USCIS. I will check with the girl who now lives in my former apartment if they sent anything there for me. Do they send out the first notice to you 2 months before the 90 date anniversary?

Hey Taho,

quoted from my NOA1:

"Upon receipt of your ASC appintment notice, you can find the status of your case on-line at www.uscis.gov. To view the status of your case, enter the application number found at the top of the ASC appointment notice. NOTE: The I-751 form type will be listed as "CRI89" under the application type in our case status on-line tool."

and there is nothing else on my NOA1 regarding the online status.
Where do you see CLEARLY that you can access your account ONLY after your bio appointment?
You filed 1 month later maybe u have an updated NOA? can you pls quote?
