Old TSC cases transferred to VSC

[Cassie 8]

Thanks, all. Yes, jsouthwick, Karnak did call it -- kind of, heh heh. At this point, it's not the fact of approval that's important but getting the freakin' card since travel plans are set for about three weeks from now. Oh, well, at least we have the stamp. I hope that's not a problem when Claudia reenters the country with just the stamp and they look up in the computer and ask her where the green card she was issued is. Probably not, but who knows . . . .

Karnak predicts Smartie around the 26th of May, BBrudi and Cassie June 3rd, BBan 6/26 & Imailin Juy 1.

2 more weeks? oye.

May 26? Thank you jsouthwick, I will take it. Better than never.

I went to SS office today with my husband, just to try to get a new card without restrictions. I knew we will not get it but wanted to try just not to say later I didn't. Gave my expired card, license and ssc.

The lady was really nice. She filled all the forms till got to the green card expiration date. She read it several times. I showed her the extension letter, but she couldn’t do anything. She really tried. The system wouldn’t let her give me new card.

Isn’t it ridiculous? If I went a year ago I could get one for the lifetime. Makes no sense to deny now in something I could have had a year ago.

sorry I got the same experience with the only difference that they guy on the SS told me that the NOA was not valid and that they have different rules from Immigration. Thanks for that even if I want I wont be able to change my job (not that I will right now but...) the only option is get a stamp in your passport and they will give you the SS card (that is what they told me)

so good luck to all of us than more than loosers we are a bunch of idiots that have been step thousand of times by this Bureaucracy that makes no sense!!!

Great news, James!

Congrats James. Hope that starts something. I just took Nadine to get her I-551, thinking watch after I get this she'll get approved. At this point everything is good.

* presumed receipt date

[James 2]

I also meant to mention -- we didn't send in a thick packet of evidence, it was thin a la us1415 and Tweety:

1. Two (2) birth certificates

2. Deed to our house with both our names on it

3. Joint tax returns for previous three years

4. Print out from health insurance website showing her as beneficiary of my health plan

5. Copies of our credit cards showing we share the same account

6. Copies of our driver's licenses showing the same address

Contrary to semi-popular belief, no affidavits and nothing else up our sleeves.

Hi James,

Me again, just wanted to make my previous CONGRATULATIONS official.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

ABOUT TIME

HIP HIP HOORAYYYYYYYYYYYYY

As you can see my hubby and I are very happy for you and your wife with the approval. I will see you on the N-400 trail eventually. Save me a seat.

Let's hope the N-400 bus is faster than the I-751 bus was. I was convinced our bus had broken down completely a few times.

Our N-400 bus has been very fast - January 31 until May 6...you never know how fast or slow this will go.
