Just checked in at USCIS, for VSC it says we will be processed June 2011. 10 months! My green card was good to Dec and I have a one year extension, but it's getting me worried! I wonder how the earlier VSC filers are doing and if some of them had to get extensions.

Just called USCIS today, and for the few of us still waiting for the CSC, apparently they are processing applications up to 9/16/11, this information is updated on the 15th of every month. If we don't hear by 4/15, I was told to log a service request.

Cheers

So, I've got... **SEE UPDATES**

1- our Tax information, and I guess I didn't include it the FIRST time, because we had submitted it every other time, guess we should have included it anyway. That'll be one of the first things I print out. ** UPDATE: We submitted this, but not actual IRS transcripts, but we've ordered those.

2- I will contact our insurance company, through my work for documents -- even though we are encouraged to print from the website (I already sent this in). But, I will request something from the company directly and send again. **UPDATE: I'm going to send documentation that shows when he had to go to the doctor and our names are on the paperwork.

3- We just re-financed our home, but because I bought the home on my own before we were married, the rules for the re-fi was that only I could re-fi under my own name. However, he had to sign off that I was doing this and with his approval (MI state laws). So, I will dig out those documents. **UPDATE: I'm including a letter stating the situation of the refi -- how only I could be on the re-fi due to the original purchase. However, I will be including docs that we both

had to sign.

4- We own the cars, so there's nothing there. I already included insurance cards for our cars that show both our names. **UPDATE: Don't have pink slips, best I've got are insurance cards.

5- I will contact my retirement person to see if she can get a formal document stating that he is my beneficiary there, too. **UPDATE: Forgot to do this... I'll be doing this tomorrow.

So, with those items, do you all think that would work??

Has anyone tried traveling to another country (or their home country) on the Temporary Piece of paper you are given while waiting for RoC to get completed? My husband and I would like to visit his family in Canada in May and don't want any troubles.

Thanks for any advice!

I traveled couple of times to different countries (not home country), I flew different airlines as well. It was fine, a little tricky getting on some of the flights, a few of the airline personnel are not at all familiar with the extension letter, they kept checking the letter and presumably the instructions on their system... A couple kept on asking me for the I-551 stamp, I actually got a stamp because I ended up with two NOAs with different receipt numbers (you can look under my other posts for that story). Ultimately, I think if you run into issues, you can always speak to a supervisor level person to get it resolved, I was only held up a little each time. I ended up in secondary inspection one time, but it was unrelated to my GC paperwork (my passport was mistakenly flagged as being reported lost/stolen). If you're thinking I'm an unlucky traveler, you'd be right :yes:

If your window for naturalization opens before expiration of the 1 year extension you can apply for naturalization. Even still you can get another extension and then just apply for naturalization. It will force them to approve your ROC.

I think we got RFE'd for a reasons in case this helps anyone in the future: 1) We do not have children yet... nothing I can do about that... 2) I did not send actual IRS transcripts the first time around but just copies of Turbo Tax Returns with our names on them, I guess not good enough. 3) We had no lease or mortgage signed together. This is because I am a church worker and we have typically been provided with church-owned housing. I didn't explain this or support it the first time around, but sent in the explanation of lack of communal residence evidence with my RFE. As an overkill gesture we sent in a picture of us together from every month we'd been married in front of various landmarks.

I think this is what we fell in to, as well. So.... I ordered the transcripts for 2009 and 2010 on Monday, 4/2 and since we finished our 2011 taxes on Monday, and they have been accepted by the IRS (we file electronically), I ordered 2011 today. Guess I should have stuck with the transcripts, but didn't think about it back in the fall.

I've got a letter from the doctor and ultrasounds as recent as today.

The mortgage part I've got a letter written explaining the terms of our Re-Fi and why my husband isn't on the mortgage, but have copies from the paperwork he was required to sign stating that he is aware of the refinance.

So, hopefully with those three items and some additional insurance paperwork (samples of Explanations of Benefits), we'll get this done.

Thank you everyone for your thoughts and insights!!!

Thank you BOTH!!! This made both my husband and I feel much better. We drive to visit his family, and use the same crossing each time. This crossing is also a popular crossing for immigration (where he crossed with his K1), so I do't think we will have a problem.

Thank you again, VERY MUCH!!!
