I-751 December 2010 Filers

Ann 26 · March 22, 2011

What Service Center City you are in?

I know for sure that for people from Chicago SC the wait time is looong

Myself included... plus two others I know not on VJ

I am in California Service Center. I live in Vegas, not far from California. Only 5 members of December filers are left. I am among them. Hope we all get approved very fast,

Congratulations to everyone.

I am confused, yes I understand your approval is dependent on your biometrics date and enough information you send. But are you telling me that everyone that has filed in December Vermont service center don't have all there stuff of something like that. I was looking at January Vermont filers and they already have a few approved. Aren't they suppose to take them in the order they recieve them, so why aren't any of our December filers approved. I guess I am being impaient! Good question though!

I don't think biometrics -(date I mean )determines the speed of approval. I did my bio in January and still did not get approved, while some of the members did their bio in March and are approved already....

Hi KarenLou,

Thanks for your detailed response. It really helps. Just need one clarification...you sent your RFE response in Express mail envelope from post office. Correct? I am not sure if USCIS will accept RFE response in Express mail envelope.

I am surprised to find everybody is taping the RFE envelope to the big envelope they mail.

Thanks and Good Luck!

Thanks, yeye.

1) Could you share with us all the docs you sent for RFE response? Any detail you mentioned in cover letter?

---- I sent: bank statements from '09, '10 and '11

joint tax returns for '09 and '10

authorization for military housing and spouse travel from '08 and '10 (my husband is former Army)

car insurance card

life and health insurance policies

both our drivers' licenses -- they show different addresses but I explained why

our dog's rabies certificates from '10 and '11, which show our names and our old and new addresses

photographs of us in CA, HI, NV, OH and LA, covering '07 to '11

a phone bill, which shows both our numbers (family plan)

and a few other military-related documents (dependent's card/out-processing orders ...)

I wrote a lengthy cover letter detailing the things I had sent and why I have not sent other things i.e: we have no utility bills, no children etc...

2) Did you fit all the docs in RFE envelope or did you send all the docs in a bigger envelope?

------ I put the documents in a large envelope and taped the small (provided) envelope to the front

3) How did you send the RFE response, regular mail, certified regular mail or priority mail?

------ I sent it Express Mail through the USPS (UPS cannot deliver to P.O Boxes)

Hope that helps!

I didn't put it in an Express Mail envelope; not sure if the person I gave it to did though.
