[russian_armenian 4]

I have checked case status on CIS web and could not believe it....CARD PRODUCTION ORDERED

So, it took over 10months at VSC.

For those who are preparing I-751 package, we have included:

Fed Tax for 2 years (just copies, even forgot to sign; but with all schedules);

Bank statements (total 3 or 4; from 2 banks since we moved and changed bank, spaning from begining of marriage till month of sending I-751);

Copies of credit cards in 2 names;

Costco cards;

Family cell phone plan statement;

Many utility bills -one name on each but for 2 SAME addresses and spaning the whole marriage;

401K doc;

old and new W2 for hubby-it shows single status on old and married on new-so, coworkers knew about marriage;

card with many signatures from my work-says Happy wedding!

Mortgage statement;

House buying contract signed by two;

Xmass card envelope from hubby's family (for both, post stamp shows that it was sent out of state)

Pictures (wedding, with hubby family, with my family, on vacation, at home-total about 10-12 spaning from dating till last month).

No affidevits-were told by lawyer that it is a weakest evidence and we have good package, so we dont need it.

Hope it helps.

We are a month behind you and if everything lines up right..Richard will have his new GC before our Decembee vacation, so we don't have to deal with travelling with the expired GC & the letter.

Hi Russian_Armenian,

Congratulations, Russian_Armenian for getting your 10yr Green Card!!!

After such a long 10 month wait, you deserve it! It's good to know that the VSC is doing something, even if it takes a long long time. Too bad though, you couldn't get a refund for the I-751, as you only have the 10yr card for a short time now.

Oh well, onto the next stage of citizenship for you, Russian_Armenian!

Good luck too on your Citizenship application and the rest of your immigration journey!

Ant (Still waiting at the VSC...)

P.S. Thanks too, for posting your list of evidence that you submitted with your I-751 application. This will definitely help other VJers who haven't sent in their application yet and need help in terms of their evidence submission.

We don't have many people left on the list who filed on November 2007. Its sad that we willl not hear about aprovals until they start on December filers. There is a long list of December filers including me. I hope they will work on December files on next month's first week. Just waiting patiently...

Guys, thank you so much for support. The list was a big help. This month I was checking status almost every day-because I could see from our VJ list that they started to do Nov files.

Some people write here that they got approved without change in online status. In my case, the only update/touch was day after biometrics and the next booom CARD PRODUCTION. We had a lawyer, so I didn't worry about lost mail/lost RFE. But some people write that they never got any letters. I never got NOA1 (even when CIS officer ordered a second copy) but my lawyer got a copy.

So, I watched the list to see when I should contact lawyer/immigration and make sure that nothing got lost. It was a big help.

I think that 2007 filers got lost some time due to transfers. Looks like VSC is steady now. I would expect it to be about 6 mo in near future. Good luck to everybody! And thanks again.
