May 2010 I-751 filers

Nordica · August 24, 2010

Anyone have any idea why removal of conditions would result in an OS155A status on the online tool?

Any ideas?

Just Google it:

"OS155a is an "Immigrant Visa packet". This is given to those people whose green card was approved in a consular processing abroad. They do not get a physical green card straight away while they are abroad. They receive a stamp in the passport to enter the country and form OS155a to apply for a physical GC right at the port of entry when they enter US. CBP stamps it at the border and submits it to USCIS service center for the issuance of the actual GC. I have no idea what this has to do with your case. I have 2 hypotheses. First, this may be a message for a different person which was mailed to you instead by some weird twist of USCIS software. Second, this may be the actual approval of your I-485 in which AO or some service center clerk made a mistake while filing the "application type" field in the card production order by selecting "OS-155A" instead of "I-485" from a pulldown menu. I would even think that the second guess is more likely than the first one because it involves a human error which is more likely than a computer one."

Instructions: If more than 30 days have elapsed since your NOA1 date and you have not received your biometrics appointment letter, you can call the NCSC (their number is on your NOA1) and put in service request to the service center which you filed (CSC or VSC) to find out the status of the biometrics appointment letter. Make sure to verify the home address and mailing address (if any) with them on the phone. You can also request to speak to an immigration officer (you may have to ask at least twice to be transferred) to get your CR I-89 receipt number, (it is the receipt number of the biometrics letter) so that you can track your case online.

We were approved Aug. 13th. We received the approval letter in the mail Aug. 18th. Today I get a text that our case has been updated and it says:

Application Type: CRI89 , PETITION TO REMOVE CONDITIONS OF PERMANENT RESIDENT STATUS RECEIVED

Your Case Status: Post Decision Activity

On August 24, 2010, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this CRI89 PETITION TO REMOVE CONDITIONS OF PERMANENT RESIDENT STATUS RECEIVED. Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283.

For approved applications/petitions, post-decision activity may include USCIS sending notification of the approved application/petition to the National Visa Center or the Department of State. For denied applications/petitions, post-decision activity may include the processing of an appeal and/or motions to reopen or reconsider and revocations.

The CR189 Petition has been received at the NVC or Dept of State? Anyone else receive this message? Or does everyone get this message and I've just not read about it? I'm a little confused. What does this mean? We haven't received the card yet in the mail so I'm getting myself worked up about the meaning of this.

I just answered my own question. After a search it appears that this is quite normal; I've just missed reading about it somehow.
