Hi everyone!

I am preparing my I-751 packet and hoping to complete the requirements this month. I am kind of confused on the Two completed fingerprint cards (Form FD-258) . Do you set an appoitment at your local USCIS so they can administer this? Please let me know.

Thanks so much,

Dani

Dani, you must only submit the fingerprint cards if you are residing overseas (on government or military orders). If you reside in the US this is nothing you have to worry about.

We moved house a year ago and sent in an AR-11 and I-865, but I still got a reminder letter forwarded (11 months after we moved/notified USCIS) from our old address. Oh well.

Girl, I grew up in Trinidad. I'm from Petit Valley (Deigo Martin area).

Oh good to know! :thumbs: I am supposed to be going to Trinidad for Christmas of this year. It will be my first time in a while. It will be my husband and daughter's first time there so I am so excited to introduce them to my heritage. We've been on a few cruises and he's always hearing my comparisons of Trinidad to other Islands like Belize, and Roatan Islands. I can't wait! :dance:

Okay, so I'm three days late, but can I join the CSC May filers anyway? I was so desperate to get it done by the 31st, but then I realized that's a Sunday, so why not put it off until the 1st? I spent all day (10 hours) assembling, photocopying, making nifty tabs etc on the 1st -- so much so I missed the post. :( Then I was travelling all day on the 2nd, so the I-751 was FINALLY mailed yesterday, on the 3rd.

But I am May filer at heart! Just lazy.

to Rich Text Editor. DO NOT JUST COPY AND PASTE. You can change your Text

Editor as follows:

1. Click on My Controls at the top of the page.

2. Click on Board settings at the lower left of the page.

3. In the drop down box under Posting Settings, change the type of editor

from Standard to Rich Text.

4. Save this change by clicking on the "Change my Account Options" button.

Then go to the most recently posted version of this list (go to the last post and

scroll UP) and "Reply" to it, deleting the "quote" tags at the beginning AND END of

your reply.

* Please DO NOT change the font, font size, add colors, stuff like that.

* Please PREVIEW before posting to make sure it is properly formatted. (A common

mistake is somehow screwing up so you have <b> and </b> HTML tags in these very

instructions instead of actual boldfaced text.)

REMEMBER: "Date of I-751" is the date you sent your petition - NOT the date it

arrived at the service center. "NOA1 Date" is the 'Notice Date' shown on the NOA1 —

NOT the date you received it.

PLEASE DO NOT DELETE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - Thanks!
