I551 pending for 3 years

[cejzhne 0]

Hi everyone,

I am new to this site.

I have my I551 pending since 2010 OCT until Now (2014 Jan). Currently it is still pending.

The following is some information about my past.

2008 Feb - Married with my ex husband. He is US citizen

2008 Oct - Got my Temporarily Green Card

2013 July - Filed divorce. He has been treating me bad.

2013 Oct - Interview for Official GC. They took my Temporarily GC back.

Is there anyone encounter this kind of situation before?

Would somebody please give me an advice how should i move forward?

Thanks,

Cejzhne

What do you mean by temporary green card and official green card? Do you mean conditional (2 year) green card and interview to remove conditions or do you mean stamp in your passport (which is what your post implies) and interview for physical green card? What visa did you enter the US on?

I am confused because you say you got your temporary green card in 2008 and interviewed for your permanent green card in 2013. The temporary card (or stamp) is only good for 2 years.Maybe you meant you went for your interview in 2010? This would make sense if you have been waiting 3 years as your post says.

If you interviewed in 2010 you need to call someone Monday, first thing, or make an info pass to find out why you haven't received your new card. Why have you waited three years to inquire?

I am sorry. What i meant Temporarily GC is the conditional (2 years) GC.

The CGC expired on 2012 OCT.

I entered the US on visitor visa.

They sent me a mail about the interview at 2010, i did not receive it. That's why i missed the interview.

Immigration reschedule again on 2013 Oct. They took my CGC away and stamp I551-pending on my passport.

I have make an infopass and they told me to wait for the results.

Is there anyone had similiar situation before?

are you looking for someone in your situation

or

would you like to know how to chase this status, get a real answer from a Human working at USCIS?

i am looking for someone who had the same situation. I would like to know is there anyway i still can get my green card or i should just give up?

what do you mean by Human™ working at USCIS?

[Darnell 8,478]

it's a Human at USCIS that will finish adjudicating your application.

There are other Humans at USCIS that can assist you with finding out exactly what's going on.

Getting a Human at USCIS is important, sometimes.

I didn't personally experience this situation but I've seen some people who are similar in your situation who sometimes have their Conditional GC taken away after the interview and got approved. Did the interviewer said anything to you or how long you have to wait to hear back from them? I think others had said 30-60 days? Or even 90? I don't know but may be a good idea to call USCIS and find out.

What Darnell is saying there is you need to reach a person at USCIS. There are a lot of longwinded automated messages in the phone system and one can get lost in there. However, instead of just "Human" you need to speak with a Tier 2 officer. The first person you will always get is a customer rep who reads off a script. If you need specific details on your case you need to stand firm and make sure you ask for a Tier 2. I think they have a policy that they don't always send someone through to a Tier 2 because many people just call for random questions that are already readily available and they want to make sure to free up Tier 2 officers for special cases like yours.

Good luck.
