Made an infopass appointment to get stamp in passport only a few weeks away from a year.

Removal of Conditions: 12/09/2011

ROC check cashed 12/15/11

NOA1 12/13/11

Biometrics 1/6/12 Complete

RFE 9/13/12

RFE package sent back 10/17/12

Card Production Ordered 12/04/12

10 year card arrived in mail 12/10/12

Posted

Sent response to RFE on 10/10, received a text this morning, to check my status online.

Online status says card production ordered on 10/31. Wait for 30 days for card. None of the status circle was shaded or highlighted though. God is great!

Just for curiosity, did you call USCIS after you sent your package to confirm if they received the package or you just waited? I sent my RFE response almost same date as yours, track the package online and they received it. I was just wondering if you did any follow up calls so yours has already been approved. Anybody who has RFE and already approved may respond please. Any input will be appreciated. :)

I followed some of u advice and called USCIS. They put a request and said to wait for 15 days. If nothing happens, they recommended to call again. Still, I don`t know what to expect. Afyter so much time(12/23/2011), u guys think that there is a posibility to get a RFE or interview, or I should get the green card? The wait is so hard now, should I expect the worst? How many people are still waiting and did not get any notice from the office since NOA?

Well, I'm still in the same situation. I called the USCIS office on November 6th, was told to wait 15 days, but was contacted by USCIS itself (via email) on November 7th and was informed that I should hear back within 60 days. Since my case was registered in December of last year, it's looking like my case will have taken a full year by the time I get my renewed card or even notification. It's a little worrisome, but I'm not panicking.

It's impossible to say what will bring about an RFE though. I don't know if it really matters to USCIS how long the process has already taken -- if they see something they believe warrants an RFE, I'm sure they'll issue it regardless.

Hi, I have my biometrics appointment for removing conditions from my two year green card tomorrow.

Can someone help clarify if I need to bring passport sized pictures of myself along with me? My understanding was I would just need to provide my fingerprint and signature. If there is anything else I need to bring please let me know.

The letter I received about the appointment did not state anything particular that I needed to bring with me other than my greencard and copy of my appointment letter.

Thanks

For the biometrics you don`t need to bring pictures. Just have what is stated in your letter.

What number did you call? the one on the RFE?

I would call the number that pops up when you check your case status on the USCIS website: 1-800-375-5283. There's an automated system, but it's pretty easy to navigate through and get a human. That's what I did a couple of weeks ago, and the clerk was surprisingly receptive (which wasn't my experience when I used to call a few years ago).

Having said that, I'm still waiting on my case, so who knows how effective it will be.
