Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	FEBRUARY 2010 I-751 filers	Congratulations on all the latest approvals!!! Glad you guys got it all done and over with now!:-)) Sorry for the RFE, Cigarovich! I hope it won't delay your process much... My ROC case got touched on 5/14 and my AOS on 5/15...someone must have my files on his/her desk...hopeing that's a good sign...	nane1104	Female	Germany	2010-05-17 07:31:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	FEBRUARY 2010 I-751 filers	While I certainly understand why it would be much nicer to have the actual 10-year greencard in our hands, I am not going to stress over the waiting time. After all, we are permanent residents, we have the extension letter which is as good as the greencard (as far as rights and permits go) and from what I can see from previos filers- chances of denial are slim! So really, why stress? We are just going into month 4 now! This is still not terrible, considering that we have 12 months until our NOA expire. It was a different thing with AOS, I admit I was really a bundle of nerves back then, but right now I don't see why I should stress myself out over the greencard. Unless you have some difficult circumstances to deal with, chances are good that it is just a matter of time until we all hold our little plastic card in our hands. CHILL!!!	nane1104	Female	Germany	2010-05-05 15:03:00

Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	FEBRUARY 2010 I-751 filers	Judging by the January filers it'll be a while since only one of the VSC filers there has been approved. As long as I got it by the time we move back next year... Oh, btw, Ruth 1:16 was our wedding bible verse...just saw that in your signature:-)	nane1104	Female	Germany	2010-03-30 10:00:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	FEBRUARY 2010 I-751 filers	I start wondering if me filing from overseas, not doing biometrics,...will matter in the approval process. I hope they won't "forget" or "lose" my application again like it happened with my AOS...lol I guess I will see when the first VSC'ler will get their cards.... Good luck to all!	nane1104	Female	Germany	2010-03-30 04:53:00

Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	FEBRUARY 2010 I-751 filers	Finally our check was posted as cashed on our electronic bankstatement yesterday. I guess they accepted my application despite the expired form I used... Now waiting for the NOA....	nane1104	Female	Germany	2010-02-20 16:16:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	FEBRUARY 2010 I-751 filers	Oh No! I just realized I used an expired form I-751 for my application. I totally missed out on the date on the form when I sent it. I hope they will let it slide.... Has anyone heard of someone getting an RFE for using an old form?	nane1104	Female	Germany	2010-02-08 10:17:00

Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	Delay in I-751 Processing	Did you get your biometrics done? I'd suggest you make an infopass appointment...	nane1104	Female	Germany	2010-07-02 10:04:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	plan to travel while awaiting lifting of conditional 2year residency	For how long were you wanting to travel? I would say it is safe to travel with the extension letter (NOA1) you will recieve after you filed for ROC or the stamp, specially if you would be flexible with your travel dates. Maybe check out in other peoples timelines (go to the monthly threats in this forum) to see how long it usually takes from filing to biometrics, so you can better estimate when it is fairly "safe" to travel. But yeah, have someone check your mail while you are gone and get you any info from USCIS.	nane1104	Female	Germany	2010-03-04 13:16:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	GC info and ROC	If your approval letter says Feb 24 but the greencard has Dec. 20 as expiration date on it, I'd make an infopass appointment...or follow the directions that came with the card for what to do when you find something wrong with the card. I hope though that we both have not thought of any other explaination of the two different dates that would spare you from having to get a new card. Good luck!	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-03-02 16:10:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	Removing Conditions with different addresses/circumstances	If he is in the military, you should be on his orders. It doesn't show that you live together but it is evidence of your ongoing relationship. Def. file the change of address form ASAP!	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-03-02 16:25:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	Biometrics question	I think it's to early to worry. Some cases just take a little longer, I am sure your biometrics appointment will arrive soon. Everybody is getting their biometrics taken for ROC, it has nothing to do with you had it done for AOS.	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-03-02 16:05:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	Hubby deployed during ROC	You can file without him present. My husband was deployed as well when I removed conditions and it was no problem. Plus, we lived overseas. I wrote "Active Duty Military- Overseas" on the very top of the form. You may want to write "Active Duty Military- Deployed" on the top. Add his deployment orders and a letter from his commander as to why he won't be able to attend any possible interview or sign forms. (Or have your husband sign the form when he is there in April?) You might even get around the interview ( I did) or they will just forgive your husbands absence. Good luck to you, congratulations on your baby and enjoy your tim with your husband next month!!	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-03-04 03:54:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	House and Car not jointly owned	I agree, we were in the same situation, my husband had everything regarding the house, cars and utilities in his name, the only thing we had jointly were bank accounts, cellphone and car insurance, life insurance. I submitted copies of letters/bills to him and/or me that showed the same address and that seemed sufficient. I have to add though that we also had our military orders and his will with me as the main beneficiary, so that might have mattered a lot as well vs. combined bills....	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-03-02 16:19:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	OK to Highlight?	I highlighted and I even added little notes as to WHAT I was highlighting if it wasn't plain obvious.	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-03-07 08:41:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	Officer at Thousand Islands says...	What visa did he use to try to enter the US?	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-03-08 12:29:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	My 2 year interview. Could be Stokes -	Why did your wife suggest to bring the kids? To use them as evidence that you are a "real" family? I honesty don't think that is necesssary. If they feel like they need to see more evidence, they would send you a RFE. If you haven't gotten one of those, you should be fine with what you submitted. I guess it couldn't hurt to bring more stuff to the interview in case the situation becomes critical regarding the papers you sent in. I think an experienced and good interviewer will be able to see that you and your wife are in a happy and real marriage. Good luck!!	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-03-07 08:39:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	RoC approved	YAY, Congratulations!! I have seen you on here ever since I started my journey, it's nice to see you got the ROC behind you now too!! See you hopefully next year in the N-400 section:)	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-03-29 06:35:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	Confused - Do I sent finger prints in or not with my I-751?	Hehe, that happens, but you are correct, that goes for people who are overseas when they file for ROC, like military personnel. Good luck with your ROC process!	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-03-01 15:20:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	Question regarding renenwal of green card?	You can file up to 90 days prior to the expiration date. I'd suggest you do so early on in those 90 days. You should recieve a NOA1 which will extend the current greencard for one year, which would allow your wife to travel in December. I am assuming you are talking about the 2 year conditional greencard, so I agree with Inky, this is not a regular renewal of the card, you have to remove the condional status on the card/your wifes status. Go to the Removal of Conditions forum for more info on how to proceed!!	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-07-20 15:35:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	I'm new here and have some questions re: I-751	The list looks good. As mentioned before, you don't need to submit marriage certificate or license, they know by now that you are married;-) Also, when you submit any joint bills, bank statements,...make sure they cover the entire time you have been married (not every single months but maybe 2 per year per account. I also heard to go easy on pics, I resized the pictures I wanted to send and printed them all out on one or two pages with captions and dates and that seemed to be ok. Don't get to worried, ROC is pretty straightforward...	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-08-03 16:23:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	Calculating the 90 days	What are 2 days sooner or later in the big picture? Even if you send it on the 15th, what difference does it really make? Definitley file WITHIN the 90 day window.	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-08-09 11:56:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	Filed the wrong form!	Good luck, let us know how it goes!	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-09-03 14:20:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	I-751 and the Army	I think what you guys could/should have done is getting a letter from the Army asking to let him file prior and also add a fingerprint card and passport pictures to the application to get around the biometrics appointment. I don't think writing "active military" on the application without any kind of orders, enlistment papers,...attached to it will do anything. I filed for ROC from overseas and did that but you have to show why you would not be able to go to a biometrics appointment- so I sent in our orders. Not sure what will happen with your application, I have never heard that you can just file whenever just because you are in the military. I hope, you will get that sorted out fast!	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-03-11 08:14:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	ROC Approved but no green card yet	OP, did you get a "card production ordered" update already or "just" the approval notice? If the card hasn't been ordered et, it won't be coming in the mail. I'd call USCIS and ask to put in a service request to see what's going on.	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-03-28 05:31:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	I-751 Denied	I guess you can make a difference between not having any income to support the household and having income and chose not to support the household. I still don't think this was THE reason for the denial. Either the OP hasn't submitted enough other evidence of his bonafide marriage or there were other red flags during a possible interview, IF there was an interview. Like other said, OP, can you give a list of all the documents you submitted and what exactly does the denial letter say? Lawyer up before you start the appeal but start gathering EVERY bit of evidence you can find to submit with the appeal. Also, start talking to people (family, friends) and ask them to write affidavits. That's a messed up situation you are in, I hope your wife can calm down soon so you guys can plan and go the next steps. The journey isn't over yet!!	nane1104	Female	Germany	2011-08-03 16:10:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	When to file K1 petition	If you haven't yet..take a look at my timeline. I think my application went through pretty smoothly, no RFE's, no delays, that's how it SHOULD be..lol Another thing: The longest waiting period is until your petition gets approved. Once you have the NOA2 (the approvel notice) and the case gets send to NVC and then to the embassy in Germany, things move fast...(depending on how fast he gets his medical exam done and sends the required papers in....with that, you have little influence, how fast you want the process to go once the case is in Germany. Good luck!	nane1104	Female	Germany	2007-06-13 16:51:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	1st time caller	Who did you talk to? a customer service representative or an immigration officer? If you talked to a CSR, I wouldn't really trust anything they say or do. Do you have a case number? If so, did you give it to the person you talked to and did they look you up in the system? IF yes, what did they tell you about your status? Did they recieve your application (well, if you have a case number I assume it's from your cashed check wish would mean they recieved it)? If you know they recieved your application, it is not too unusual that there are no updates or touches online, you have to wait and be patient....now if something went wrong and your application got lost, you should submit a staus inquiry	nane1104	Female	Germany	2007-07-23 17:31:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Opened Sealed Envelope at the Airport in Accra	I am pretty sure mine was closed all the way- I remember because I was trying to take a glimpse inside and there was no way to see anything. What makes you so sure that they all have that? On another note: I had my envelope in my carry-on bag and nobody even asked me for it when I checked in or went through security nor when I boarded. I only took it out at my POE and once someone saw me with it, I got taken out of the line to get processed. I guess based on my visa they would have known about me having an envelope but yeah, It didn't even accure to me that someone would want to see it when I left my homecountry but now it seems that's common practice?!?	nane1104	Female	Germany	2010-04-05 16:16:00
