Jercy it should take about 2 weeks, but if 1 month past by and you didn't hear anything. You could call National (dreadful) Customer Service Line and ask about your case. They should give you the receipt number, but don't expect that the number will work because USCIS don't put the I-751 cases online, but at least you will know that they have got your case.

Raymaga, do we need to get the finger print too? I just got my 10 years greencard without the interview and finger print. It was just out of the blue, so I still wonder if the card is for real. I'm afraid that NSC made a mistake and they will want the card back.

I have never got the NOA1 (the receipt notice) but my lawyer did. The receipt number he got couldn't be found in the USCIS automate system.

I got the NOA2 which I'm not sure what it was because it is Welcome Notice with the same receipt number with my conditional greencard case.

And the case number that came with the 10 years greencard said that the case type is CRI89. I'm so confusing.

Anyway, I sent in my I-751 on May 1, 2006 and got the card Oct 17, 2006; 5 months and 15 days, suprisingly fast for NSC.

I know that my check was cashed but whats the normal amount of time to get the NOA or :oRFE back?

Thank you :luv:

Depends on your service center. If you've been following the forum, the VSC is very behind with their NOAs so calling them is not going to help much. If you need it for travel etc. an infopass to get a stamp in the passport is the way to go. Otherwise just sit and wait like the rest of us :)
