Oh, yes, they're in there somewhere too. Last three years or is that four. One with just my wife and married-filing-jointly thereafter. I've had them on-hand since just after I sent the I-751 in case of RFE (for sending returns initially which doesn't seem to cause most people any problems but a few seem to be RFE'd for).

But yeah, they're in the folder (and specifically mentioned on their list of things to bring, which is essentially a CC of the initial I-751 evidence list)

I'm sure you'll be fine then. It's more than likely just a random "quality control" (heaven knows there are many more effective things they could do to improve the quality of the immigration services).

From what I understand (I've never gotten an RFE), and someone please correct me if I am wrong, you don't have to use the envelope they provide. You can use a larger full size envelope that will fit m

Actually yes, my case was miraculously found again and approved, all within the span of a week. Sorry I haven't posted any updates about it yet. No interview, no RFE, no real reason for the delay. Still haven't received the new green card and it's possible I'll need to go and get an extension stamp to tide myself over until it gets here.

Congrats Exasperated :dance: !! Finally! Why don't you join the list officially(?)? Let us know NOA date and approved date :)

Good luck JeremyR!

Sure I can do that. I just joined the forum so late that most February filers on the forum seemed to be approved before I even posted anything - so I wasn't sure about the interest value. But maybe it's interesting for posterity:

NOA date: February 4th, 2011

Biometrics letter: February 18th, 2011

Biometrics: March 11th, 2011

Approval: November 22nd, 2011.

Once there, it was a dead easy interview to be honest. She started out very businesslike and formal and (as we discussed it later) we both were ready for a fight :lol: but she softened up when we dumped a metric ton of evidence on her desk :P and stamped a approval decision letter. The house insurance documents, the IRS transcripts and our photos seemed to be what she was most interested in. She didn't even look at our bills, receipts, etc. She flicked through our bank statements that we submitted initially but didn't want the newer ones we took.

Her demeanour changed even more when she saw how relieved we both were. I guess that's always a 'tell' for them that they've made the right call. We arrived early waited about an hour in total but went in about on time and were done in probably no more than 15 minutes.

She also gave me a letter to take to the InfoPass office downstairs for an I-551 stamp if I wanted - I made sure to take it :P but should have the GC soon enough, I hope.

FWIW, she said I was interviewed for insufficient initial evidence. We made a judgement call against sending it in a bit light on evidence but having enough time to be sure I could renew my DL, etc, versus sending it in with more evidence but risking losing my DL for a few weeks while the NOA bubbled through the system... Why they didn't just RFE me if they wanted more, I'll never know.

On to N-400? :lol:

Gah. Can't edit it anymore. Should also say that she took the affidavits but didn't seem to read them in any detail.

Also, she seemed a bit confused about why the classification on my 2yr GC was CF1 (which is what it should have been, no?) but according to the approval letter she changed it to IR-1, which I assume is also normal?

Thanks everyone :) Huge relief tonight..... Had a celebratory Waffle House lunch (how southern is that :lol:) and a celebratory drink this evening.

We're actually considering waiting a while before going into the citizenship process. There's no compelling rush as I see things and honestly, I think neither of us really want to be back into all this USCIS stuff for a while... Maybe we'll wait until summer, I dunno...

Congratulations Jeremy! I understand your feelings about waiting and not having to deal with the USCIS for a while. On the other hand, it could be worth it to get things taken care of as soon as possible if you (like me) would otherwise constantly have the nagging "I should get around to citizenship" thoughts in the back of your mind. If you can tune it out for a while, I'd advise you to wait. If your personality is more similar to my own (i.e. i'm tired of feeling like an ALIEN [scary cue music], alternatively, "I'm sick to death of the USCIS and wish I didn't even know what the acronym stands for"), I'd advise you to go ahead and apply, or you may regret the delay later on (and also, if I understand things correctly it may also exempt you from biometrics for the citizenship application, if you apply soon enough following the removal of conditions).

Whatever you decide, at least it's in your hands now (which is a welcome change from the strict deadlines you've been subjected to so far). Congratulations once again!

Yeah, I know, I feel so dirty every time I eat there but it's so good... I got off the plane second time I visited here before we married heavily delayed and very hungry. My wife asked if I wanted to grab a bite to eat. There was only one answer :lol:

:lol:

I haven't decided yet... And thanks Exasperated, I know there is a benefit to getting it out of the way but this interview process has been a whole load of stress (that is lifting gradually as the wine bottle's content level drops :lol:) and I know the N-400 interview is a whole different kettle of fish. I'm just not sure either of us need to go through that again just yet. AFAIK, there's yet another bona fide marriage check for 3-year citizenship... Maybe we'll feel a bit different after a few weeks have passed, I dunno.
