My GC will expire Oct 11, 2009. Sent my papers July 8, 4 days before the 90 days expiration. Just today got my papers back saying I sent it too early. Only 4 days to go huh?

Hi andrew&evelyn,

Thats USCIS for you. If you do something too soon it's bad if it's too late it's worse. For I-751 and I think for N400 they have a rule if you send it too early they will send it back saying you send it too soon.

Even if you had sent it on the 90th day before GC expiration they would have sent it back. They normally except 89th days or later but before GC expiration.

Nothing too worry about. Just send the application packet back next week around Tuesday or Wednesday via USPS Express mail. I would say just make copies of the packet if you haven't done so. You can use in case they send you RFE or interview which are rare or you can use for N400 (Naturalization) next year.

Hope it helps.

Good Luck.

To be fair to the USCIS they have rules and lay them out fairly clearly. If they state that the application must not be submitted more than 90 days prior to expiration then it is easy to know when to send it.

If they start accepting those sent in 94 days prior to expiration then why not 100 days, or 105 or even 110? Where does it end. You would start having people sending them in 6 months before expiration.

Try to follow the rules exactly and you should be fine.

Good luck,

Paul
