LOL My Saga Continues

[Cdnwmn 0]

For those that remember my case, I was issued a 2 year conditional card after my 2nd wedding anniversary back in 2002. Tried to fight my local immigration office to have this card made into a 10 year card and they wouldn't do it. This year I applied to have conditions removed through Nebraska only to be told that I was issued a 2 year card in error initially. I got an I-90 to fill out, sent me and my son's 2 year cards back to Nebraska along with the original letter Nebraska sent to me saying we were issued two year cards in error. Nebraska received my package June 13.

Well today I get a I-797 Notice of Action from Nebraska, Notice Type: Welcome Notice.

Down below it states that my application is being processed or permanent residency. If approved a permanent residence card will be mailed directly to me from the Immigration Card Facility. If I don't hear anything from them in 30 days, I'm to call......

Ok is this a normal letter for a card that was only supposed to get changed from a 2 year to a 10 year card because the original one was issued in error?

I can hardly wait to apply and receive citizenship to get beyond all this nonsense. It's been a fun ride so far. We apply in April 2007. By the time we get this 10 year card which we should have gotten back in July 2002, me and my son will probably have already received citizenship.

In the meantime I had already gone in to our local immigration office to get a 1 year extension for me and my son.

I assume it's a standard letter they send to everyone who's applying for a 10-year card. Though it is weird that it says "Welcome notice."

Cdnwmn,

My guess is that there is no Notice Type for your situation - it is, after all, something that's not supposed to happen. This notice is probably what someone decided was the closest match to the situation.

Or, the NSC has done it to you again.

Yup. That's what we got and that's what it said. We did the standard removal of conditions.

Cdnwmn -- as long as you got your refund of the filing fee and (eventually) ten year green card, I think everything is right. We got the same welcome letter -- it arrived around the same time as the ten year card. Although in our case we *did* have to remove conditions and we were not given conditional status in error. But wanted to let you know that is the letter we got.

From http://www.uscis.gov/lpbin/lpext.dll/inser...d-chapter-32-25 :

"When the adjudicator of the Form I-751 determines that the alien was improperly classified as a conditional resident, the adjudicator should issue the individual a letter telling the alien that he/she was incorrectly classified and advising him/her to go to a district office to file an I-90 for issuance of an I-551 at no cost. The Form I-751 is also processed for a fee refund on Form G-266, and the Form I-751 is counted as a “statistical denial.”
