3. Although I sent to Vermont, letter is from the Charlotte field office. (I'm in NC)

Congratulations! I honestly don't know how to answer your question. Know for a fact that transfer from one service center to another is a common practice in order to balance workload. When a case got sent to a local office usually means something else. I have never heard before about offload to local offices in purpose of balancing workload.

I received the Green Card in the mail on April 2nd from VSC. The letter was dated 3/29/2016 and was mailed on 3/30/2016.

One question, the back side of the letter with the Green Cardis the Form I-797D. There also was the Welcome to the United States pamphlet there. Is there anything else that will be mailed or is this it?

Good luck to everyone waiting!
