You need to file form AR-11 with them, and so do any sponsors that have moved address. You need to also change your address online with them. I have to do this too, but I expect things still to be sent to my previous 2 addresses, because USCIS suck.

I doubt it, I finally got my medical to the post office on 12/18 so that should meet their deadline of getting to them by 12/30, but their tracking system says it hasn't left yet. Bah. Final cost was $303 because I needed another Tetnus/Diptheria, I had my TB skin test read at local health department and results faxed.

Our co-sponsor filled out the i-864A because they were in the same house, but with the move..they won't be...is this a problem??

If their address will remain the same, they do not need to file anything. USC needs to file paper form in the mail and alien spouse needs to file it online and in the mail.

8 inches....!! No snow at all over here. Just freezing rain and the roads were nasty with salt and sand. We're in South Charlotte and 15 miles up north got snow... ugh... I am so sick of the rain and can't believe it's going to rain on Christmas day!!

Green card just came with the mail!!!!!! :dance:

One weird thing though. It says Residence since 12/10/09... But my approval email came on 12/15 and it said that card production ordered on 12/15. later got email saying registered permanent resident status on 12/15. And on 12/17 email saying mailed notice that have been approved. So.... I was actually approved on 12/10???

CONGRATULATIONS AND HAVE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS

JimandChristy - it seems the email I got about being approved and card production ordered were misleading and I was not approved on 12/15 but already on 12/10. So since my card says I am permanent resident since 12/10 I guess that's the correct date. Do you mind changing in the spreadsheet? From 12/15 to 12/10. Thanks

Happy Holidays everyone! It's been snowing here and it's so beautiful. Can't wait for Christmas!

Current Status: Response to request for evidence received, and case processing has resumed.

On December 21, 2009, we received your response to our request for evidence. This case is being processed at our CALIFORNIA SERVICE CENTER location.

Here goes ... maybe it will get done before the end of the year.

So went to SS office to change my SS card to say I am now permanent resident... And they took my card to be shredded and told me they can't issue a new one since USCIS has not updated my name and I am still in my maiden name in their computer. Great. Also needed letter to bank confirming my SSN which they refused until immigration does name change in computer.My worry is I am going to Sweden next week... and my name is wrong in the system! I thought less paperwork when GC received but apparently not... Calling USCIS now....

I don't think it's going to be a problem when you go through the immigration lines. Just make a copy of your marriage certificate and make sure you always have your GC with you at all times. The GC has your alien # so they should be able to trace everything. Have a safe and fun trip home!

Cheers..

USCIS told me the SS office should be able to do a "status verification" and see that the K1 holder that entered in maiden name is same person as permanent resident in married name. So seems my SS office is a little confused.. Hopefully will get this sorted without infopass. USCIS told me to bring marriage cert and birth cert along with passport and GC to trip next week.

Freyja IM SO HAPPY FOR YOUUUUUU....

I knew you'll get a favorable response before Christmas!!!

On our case we decided to call USCIS and they told us that our case was closed and that they were going to deny it (I almost fainted), but that someone made a mistake at the USCIS webpage and at the administration and yesterday I received an approval for my I130... It says that there is no visa for me (I don't need a visa, I need my GC, Lol)... They said I should be getting my GC within 3 weeks, due to this mistake.

That is a confirmation of what we always knew, that the webpage is being run by people hired as temps... No coordination or synchronization whatsoever... Needless to say that my heart skipped a beat, but thanks God that they told us to disregard any deny notifications by the webpage or by mail, that our case was APPROVED on the 14th and that's it.

I hope all the Sept. filers have a GC by Xmas and before this year comes to an end...

Good luck to all
