I-751 October 2011 Filers

danmarkx · July 30, 2012

I guess the email/text with approval notice from the website was due to the status being updated incorrectly? Because the online status has approval date as of 07/27/2012, and that was the date of RFE too that I received in the mail. So whoever was making an update to online system may have chosen the wrong status notice?

I have a partial good news for you..........I have seen this happen before.!! It happened to someone in one of the previous threads. Either Aug 2011 or Sept 2011 (cant remember). She had received an approval notice, then an RFE. The RFE asked her husband to send receipts of gifts he had bought for the USC wife's son. They called USCIS, and were advised to reply to the RFE. [note that they were initially reluctant to do so, especially since they had been told the card was on its way].

They sent the RFE package, and called USCIS 2 days later; As crazy as it may sound, the USCIS official told the couple that it was a TEST, and since USCIS had received the package with the appropriate evidence, the couple had passed the test. So "Yeah, their approval still stands." {note that USCIS reserves the right to rescind approval after approval]

Just in case your situation is the same way, I advice you to reply to the RFE ASAP!.....I wish u the best of luck.

Thanks for sharing this story and for wishing good luck! Moral support in this forum is really amazing and very much appreciated

I almost wish that they just invited us both for the interview, it would have been less time consuming.

I am just getting some more bank statements/credit cards printouts, as before I provided only account summaries. I did not realize they care about our daily spending. Because we both have direct deposit to our checking account, I think it may help them to see that we had it for several years.

Below is a list that I originally provided (each line item has supporting docs in the package). USCIS listed all the items we send, list of 23 different items but they noted that we submitted some of the same photos as for original GC... Since we had been together for 6 years by now (lived 3 years together before marriage) I think we got over taking photos after a while. I am just not a fan of photos

I guess I will have to give in and get affidavits from my friends/colleagues who know us. I find it somewhat demeaning to do that - after all they know us as a couple, and asking them to confirm that makes them question what we are up to... There are no other foreign people that I know and most of the time I do not discuss my immigration status, so I am not looking forward to go thru the lecture about what immigration is and why I want them to give me notarized copies of stories how they know us... :wacko:

Oy, sorry for the bad news to both AngelinaBlack and faloak. I have read of both things happening to other people in prior threads. Angela I agree that you should respond to the RFE. Sorry they toyed with you I would write you an affidavit if I knew you in RL!

Faloak I wonder why it took them THIS long to realize there was an issue with your prints.. :blink:

Sorry for the RFE Angelinab

Just recieved a letter today stating that fingerprinting were rejected as unclassified thus to submit evidence to satisfy the criminal background check requirement.

Any one has ever received this kind of letter before? What should I do?

Any advise is appreciated!

I am sorry to hear about your situation too.. I hope you only have to go to your most recent city police department, as I would imagine it would be time consuming if you needed to get the background check from all places you lived in (unless you did not move much).

Maybe giving a call to your local courthouse would give you some guidance, after all they must have some standard form that can be used to request background check on yourself. Maybe something similar they do like in the cases if you were to apply for concealed weapon's permit?

cdneh · July 31, 2012

It would only be from the time you entered the USA. So not like every place you have ever lived..lol..I've looked into it so as to be ready :blush

faloak · July 31, 2012

I haven't had that, but I am expecting it. I had biometrics done twice because the FBI could not process them. You will need a police clearance, from what I have read while searching here, I would have to go to the local police department with the letter USCIC send, and have them run a clearance on me. It would be for the time since entry to the USA.

Got it. It says : submit your own signed affidavit re.any criminal history, supported by police clearances/record from each place resided from the date you acquired CONDITIONAL PR status to the date of this request.

How did it go the second time? If you got it right then you don't need police clearance.

Three BIO has been done before I got this letter today. All did not come out well due to skin dryness but isn't it unusual to get 3 bio done as what I heard here ,there would be only 2 bio before you are required to get Police clearance if the two was unclassifiable? :unsure:

Faloak I wonder why it took them THIS long to realize there was an issue with your prints..

I guess what they do is to cleared up all "non-issue" cases first (approval) then the ones "with issue" just started to be cleared up now. :lol:

Thanks! It sucks receiving this kind of notification after 9mos waiting. I hope you get all docs ready and send it asap.

Only from places of resident from the date conditional GC was issued to present time. In this case the County Sheriff Office would issue the clearance with no charge (checked with them today)

"from the time you conditional PR is granted". Hope you would not get any RFE

cdneh · July 31, 2012

The person that took my second set of prints said she didn't think they were any better than the first set. She had no idea what they would do, only that they would not ask me to go all the way back to TN a third time. What they will do, if they ever get to my application, and the second set are deemed not clear enough, is send me and RFE for the police clearance. That will be awkward, as I am not in the state that I live in at the moment, my husband is still an outpatient here in TN following his liver transplant. We may be here well into October as things stand at present.
