thanks!I will. can you please tell me the difference of NOA1 and NOA2? Thank you!

NOA1 - extension letter (says we have received your application and your GC is extended for a period of 1 year)

NOA2 - approval letter (says we have approved your petition and your new GC will be in the mail)

Слава Україні!

Hi guys,

I mailed my application last December 28, 2012 and I got my biometrics appointment letter I-797 which I went to last Feb 14, 2013. but I never received a copy of an extension letter extending my immigration status. Has anybody had any experience like this before? If so what should I do? Thanks much!

Hi angelicnurse, I see your name on CSC list with sent date 12/01. You meant 11/28 or they sent your package back and you resent on 12/28?

Well, if you don't get sufficient answer when you call them, you can make infopass appointment and get I-551 stamp on your passport :) There is no member in this pack, but there are few members in same situation in every monthly thread...

I believe around October. Maybe earlier or later, depending on the workload. But realistically: October - November.

Don't get me wrong, it could move faster. But I've always found that setting realistic expectations diminishes the chance of being disappointed.

Also, I don't really care how long this takes, my wife is here already, so the length of the process does not matter as much as it used to (K-1).

You have to wait 2 years 9 months and 2 days (pretty much) since the issue of GC before filing for Naturalization via the 3-year marriage rule.

This is good info to know so we can file naturalization before we get 10 yr green card? Bcuz the way things are moving we will be eligible to file naturalization before ROC is complete.....I hope I'm understanding you....

Yes, you can file for Naturalization with ROC pending. Usually that'll force USCIS to adjudicate ROC. All in all, there's nothing stopping you from filing Naturalization before ROC is complete, and I actually intend to do that when the N-400 window opens up and if ROC is still pending.
