the YELLOW LETTER

[bislig2alabama 1]

Just received the ? YELLOW LETTER ? on Saturday, August 15th.

It tells us to bring to the interview her state issued driver's license. But there is no interview date. Only pray that that appointment letter will arrive soon from Atlanta.

Did you got an email from CRIS before you received the actual yellow letter?

Thanks,

Must be somebody smoking crack at the USCIS, a state photo ID wasn't required last year. My wife got her driver's license using her green card as an ID, so the state driver's license is based as a secondary form of ID from the green card.

We had a hell of a time with our DMV renewing her license when my wife had an expired green card with that one year extension notice, agent said, what in the hell is this, wouldn't renew it. Fought with the governors office for a week, they finally renewed it, at first for just the life of her extension, said, BS, they gave in and gave her the full eight year renewal. But when she did get her USC certificate, went back in with that, we don't have to see that, all she has to do is to check the box on the application that she is a USC, just responed without thinking, can't an illegal also do that? No response.

Also while standing behind the yellow line, heard the agent talking to a guy without proper ID, hey I was behind the yellow line, wasn't suppose to hear this. Agent told this guy to go home and bring in a utility bill for identication, what a weak form of evidence that is I said to my wife. But apparently someone from the USCIS heard that thinking that was a great idea, so the USCIS started that bit of pure nonsense.

Since I have dealt with nuts before, yes, I am inferring the people at the USCIS are a bunch of nuts, you don't argue with them, just smile and try to please them. You certainly don't want to use logic nor common sense, if they want you to bring in your driver's license and a utility bill, you do that. They do have the power to hurt you.

Venezuela isn't so hot either, wife needed to get a new state issued photo ID, required for all citizens of Venezuela. I could have gotten one for my by placing a fresh hundred US dollar on the counter, but what would I do with it? In one country, dealing with idiots, in another, corruption.

Was touched at my wife's oath ceremony, reciting the oath to serve this country, reminded me of when I said the oath to defend my country, when I was drafted, except back then, if I didn't say it, would end up in jail. Often wondered if that oath would stand up in court, but again, don't fight it, just do it.

She has her driver's license, that is no problem, NOW.

But I would guess that the green card is their ID!

Thanks for the answer.

I've seen other posts concerning the Yellow letter and wanting them to bring their drivers license and original divorce certificates, so who knows.

As for the e-mails from CRIS everyone seems to be getting lately, I think they are for the Biometric appt letters, because the dates coincide. If everyone remembers, USCIS wasn't exactly doing a good job of updating cases online or sending e-mails. It would seem they fixed that problem, and are now causing more worry than good!

About updating CRIS - I was approved for my citizenship last Thursday and my case file online still says ' We have received your application on XXX date . . . ". No touches since the 9th of May. I didn't receive the yellow letter but at the interview the IO did ask to see my Driver's License, my green card and my SSN card. I also showed my military ID since it has my husband also listed as my sponsor.

It seems there is no rhyme or reason to their online system. My only guess is that they just now began using it for the more recent cases. It started with those of us who filed in mid July.

hi bislig2alabama!

You should call the USCIS because I got the yellow letter stating to bring other documents after I received my interview date letter. The yellow letter means is additional documents to bring. And during my interviewed,the officer never asked me about it. I voluntarily asked her if she needs these documents because I got this yellow letter and she said "no,I got the copy already". So make sure to call the USCIS and tell them the situation because it's hard to miss the interview date. I hope this will help!Good Luck!

Thanks, we do plan to call. But you know what a problem it can become when you attempt to phone immigration.

Thank again for the advice.
