Hi

We are filing to remove GC conditions. Here are couple of questions

1. Do we also submit passport size photographs?

2. Do we submit a single I-751 document for my son and me? He came along with me on dependent visa and is 18 yrs now

Thanking you in advance for your replies

We sent our packet today by USPS Priority Mail. It is supposed to be delivered on Thursday!

We also ordered our tax transcripts on the IRS web site. We could only order our transcripts for 2010, so we sent just the tax returns for 2011.

I have ordered these tax transcripts 2 times now. I am still waiting for the second order. The first never came. Have you had any trouble with that?

I had to order twice online too. The first batch never came after I waited 2 weeks, so I ordered again. The second batch came within a week. Guess it is normal for IRS to not send out things and it is hit and miss.

Okay, I am soooo irritated! Didn't know we need the 'official transcripts', so we ordered the first, waited a week, ordered the second and still haven't received them. Our window opened March 4th, so we have plenty of time, but I just want to send this OFF. Is it a huge problem if we just send photocopies of 09, 10 and 11? I just want to say f-it and send it tomorrow......or should we be patient and we have to wait for the official transcripts?

I had the same thing happened today in my wife's case.

Sent I-751 on 3/8/12 to VSC... Shortly after got NOA1 extending the GC for another year. Had an EAC case that was NOT traceable online.

Got "CRI89 approved removal of conditions i89" NOA receipt notice today that had 2 pages of info on it, but nothing substantial. New case number which is now traceable as CRI89 and is in "Initial Review" phase.

Here is a status:

On March 12, 2012, we received this CRI89 PETITION TO REMOVE CONDITIONS OF PERMANENT RESIDENT STATUS RECEIVED, and mailed you a notice describing how we will process your case. Please follow any instructions on this notice. You will be notified by mail when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you. If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address or contact our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283.

During this step, USCIS initiates the background checks of the applicant/petitioner and identifies issues that may need to be addressed either during an interview or by asking the applicant/petitioner to submit additional information or documentation. USCIS reviews the applicant's/petitioner's criminal history, determines if there are national security concerns that need to be addressed, and reviews the application/petition for fraud indicators.

Don't know what to make of it, especially with the word "approved" in the case heading... I was 100% sure this would be biometrics notice, but nope it wasn't.

Yep, same thing with me. Got mine today too

When i saw approved in the case heading i almost started to rejoice thinking by some miracle they approved it overnight :lol: ............ until i read the rest of the document :bonk:

Well, that's what I did. I waited a month and nothing arrived so I made copies of our tax returns. Now- did I do the right thing or not?I'm not quite sure, but I'm hoping for the best.

The IRS very routinely does not send the transcripts you ordered. However, if you call them up, tell them that you've waited and that you need them immediately for USCIS, and ask them to fax them to you, the person at the IRS will put down the phone, walk over to a fax machine, send them to you while you wait, and then come back to the phone to make sure you got them. I have twice done this, and I highly suggest it to anyone who wants to get this over with and has access to a fax machine. If you've been waiting for weeks for the transcripts, it is time to stop waiting: they probably aren't coming.
