Fellow filers,

Within 30 days I will be eligible to file for N-400 based on 3 years marriage,

..The problem is -unfortunately- my I-751 is still pending

In the I-751 forum I remember

Someone said filing for citizenship forces uscis to adjudicate of the I-751 is that coRrect?

and without receiving the fisical card how can properly file front+ back of the card? Can I make a copy of the conditional card ?

Does anyone filed under the same situation?

Thank you for your time on responding

Same here, but without the cover letter, if you apply 90 days before your third anniversary you are still a lawful permanent resident for at least another 90 days and that is the requirement for the N-400. Finally got in the new ten year card, copied that on both sides and sent that to the same address as we sent the N-400 to, but this time with a short cover letter. Wife did get her interview 20 days after her one year extension would have expired, that went quick, but getting the oath letter is not. Always something.

thank you steve,

i looked at the link you sent me abd i saw this:::

to me is quite confusing the procedures of section 319???

does anyone dealt with this 319 law before?

thanks

Form N-400 Filed Under INA 319(a) or 319(B) . In almost all cases, a Form N-400 that is filed while a Form I-751 is pending will have been filed under either section 319 (a) or 319(B) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (Act). Each of these sections of law requires a higher level of evidence of marital union and joint residence than is required for the approval of Form I-751 filed jointly. If a Form I- 751 is pending at the time of the conditional resident’s examination on the Form N-400, the USCIS officer adjudicating the Form N-400 shall conduct the N-400 examination. If the applicant demonstrates 319(a) or 319(B) eligibility and the Form I-751 is in the file, the U SCIS officer shall approve the Form I-751 and update MFAS.

You are applying for N 400 under 319 (a). Since your I-751 is been pending, the officer that will look at your N-400 will call in your I-751 to review it if it has not been processed by the time he is almost complete with your N-400 application.

These case are treated separately. Don't get scared. Your I-751 cannot be denied if you submitted the right materials. If the USCIS office that works on you I-751 has any doughts on your I-751, that office will refer you to your local office for an interview. Otherwise they will approve your I-751. So if you get an interview letter for your I-751, that would mean, they have doughts.

You will be fine

Thanks

They can say that again, was just as bad as applying for the first time, surprised they didn't ask for another I-693. How does one know if the N-400 examining officer digs up your I-751. To the best of my knowledge our pending I-751 was in California and our N-400 was in Nebraska.

And why are many using the word adjudicate, to be impressive? Adjudicate means to settle a dispute by a judicial procedure when in fact, the USCIS procedure is a process. And a long process at that that is the reason many of us already applied for the N-400 before the I-751 process was completed. Don't recall ever being called to a court of law to settle a dispute, just send what the USCIS wants, and wait.
