They send a letter in the mail reminding you. At least I got one.

Make sure you inform them of any address/contact changes before the whole process starts.

2 years is a long time. address can change, phones, and computers can change, so I'm trying to find the best way to remember to remove the conditions in about 2 years. Do you actually get an email sent to you, or do you remember it on your own?

Few suggestions:

1 - Make an entry in your calendar so that your smartphone will alert you when the time comes.

2 - Make several entries in your calendar so that your smartphone will alert you - every 6 months? - to check the validity of your GC.

3 - Jot down a reminder on your last year's taxes and every year going forward. Chances are you will need to look at your past year's taxes when filing the current year.

4 - Tie the renewal date to your wedding anniversary, passport renewal, DL renewal, solstice/equinox, etc.

The reminder will be sent around a month before the filing period opens. However, from my observation it will be sent to the address of AOS. Even if you change your address with uscis forget about receiving a reminder. So, you need to remember it

day 2 -- 04/12/2012-- package was received.

day 43-- 05/23/2012-- Notice for an interview is received for 06/26 @ 2pm

day 63-- 06/12/2012-- Received a Text & email for an update- Card production EAD/AP

day 77-- 06/26/2012-- interview / approved on the spot.

day 86-- 07/05/2012-- Received my GC in the mail.

I did not receive a letter but I like the smart phone idea if you are forgetful. I just never forgot mine.

*After I posted I saw what myafi1989 said and that must have been why I never received one, but I will still not bet on them reminding you just in case for some other reason you still don't get one.

Yes, it's sent to the AOS address. We updated our address correctly with USCIS, over a year ago, and it was still sent to the AOS address. However, we had mail forwarding implemented from the post office and it was forwarded.

Day 139 - 17 September 2012 Interview & APPROVED on the Spot!! :)
Day 145 - 23 September 2012 Received Green Card!

Day 0 - 18 June 2014 Mailed ROC package via 2 day priority

Here is another one: Tape a note to the smoke alarm batteries, so when you change them you'll be reminded to check the expiration date on your GC as well...

I don't think I'd be able to forget. I don't fancy being hauled to immigration court!

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

 

September 26th 2016: I-751 package sent to CSC

September 28th 2016: Package delivered
September 30th 2016: Check cashed
October 3rd 2016: NOA1 received with receipt date of 09/28/16
November 3rd 2016: Biometrics received with appointment date of 11/14/16.
November 14th 2016: Attended biometrics appointment
October 30th 2017: Infopass appointment to get I-551 stamp
February 26th 2018: I-751 case number (aka the NOA1 receipt number) becomes trackable
March 14th 2018: Submitted service request due to being outside of processing time.

March 15th 2018: ROC approved. 535 days (1 year, 5 months and 17 days)

March 29th 2018: Card being produced

April 4th 2018: Card mailed out

April 6th 2018: Card in hand. Has incorrect "resident since" date. Submitted service request on I-751 case (typographical error on permanent resident card) and an I-90 online.

April 2018 - August 7th 2018: Tons of service requests, emails and now senator involvement to get my corrected green card back because what the heck, USCIS. Also some time in May I sent a letter to Potomac telling them I want to withdraw my I-90 since CSC were handling it.

August 8th 2018: Card in production thanks to the direct involvement of Senator Sherrod Brown's team

August 13th 2018: Card mailed

August 15th 2018: Card in hand with correct date. :joy:

October 31st 2018: Potomac sends out a notice stating they have closed out my I-90 per my request. Yay for no duplicate card drama.
