My one year extension ends on March 4(this Saturday).

we went to renew my license and seems like they require another extension letter.

my field office is Newark and it does not have any appointments this week.

can I just walk in to the field office and request them for an extension?

has anyone done this before?

will they extend my green card if I just walk in this week.

i am stressed..hopefully someone can give their inputs

i have found this information on a website:

 

VSC Updates on Family-Based Immigration

VSC Staff and Petition Processing

The VSC currently has approximately 1,000 federal employees including 600 adjudicators.  New adjudicators have mentors and coaches and must do a certain number of cases before they can adjudicate cases on their own. Adjudicators receive form-specific training and will generally work with that form for at least six months before taking on adjudication of a new form.

Cases are processed by adjudicators in receipt order.  All petition denials are reviewed by a supervisor regardless of form type.  If an approved petition is inappropriately routed for adjustment of status instead of consular processing, this may be corrected by contacting the National Customer Service Center.

Hey, you can't just walk in. My advice is go check for appointments either really late or really early. I got mine around 5 or 6 am. 

 

They wont take you if you walk in. When you get an appointment, they'll take your green card and stamp your passport with an I-551 stamp (green card) and its most likely going to be valid for a year that you can use at the DMV or proof of authorization for employment.

I am not sure what other option do I have, since I am not able to get an appointment.

Another question, Is the green card extended by 1 year from its expiry date or 1 year from the date of the notice.

My notice date is March 4th 2016 and the Green can expires on May 27th 2016.

Does that mean that my green card is extended until March 4th 2017 or until May 27th 2017?

Appreciate your input.

Hey, my field office is Newark, I was just trying to make an appointment and the first few times it showed that they have no appointments for the next 14 days, I kept refreshing and after the fourth or fifth time an appointment showed up for Tuesday 3/7 at 10am. Try doing that, my extension letter expires on 3/26 so I'm going to go and try to get a stamp, my job keeps asking me about my status and I'm getting nervous. Good luck!

Hey guys, I had a quick question. I haven't heard in almost a year since I have done my FPs, but received an update that my name was updated for my case. In the email notification, it says "Initial Review" - Does anyone know if this means the case has been assigned to an officer or not?

 

Thanks!

Hi All,

 

Just an update on my case, the case status has been updated online to "New card is being produced". There was no updated when I checked this morning though. Looks like things are moving. Good luck to all waiting. Hang in there, the wait is almost over!

Hello fellow march files,

 

I checked my mail today and found a very pleasant surprise in the mail, the approval letter dated 02/28/17. It states that I shall receive my card in the mail within 60 days. I am grateful for all of you for keeping the faith and keeping us patient. 

Good luck to all of you and hopefully you hear pretty soon.

Hello fellow march files,

 

I checked my mail today and found a very pleasant surprise in the mail, the approval letter dated 02/28/17. It states that I shall receive my card in the mail within 60 days. I am grateful for all of you for keeping the faith and keeping us patient. 

Good luck to all of you and hopefully you hear pretty soon.

 

 

Congratulations

Thank you C12!

 

In order to qualify for expedited status, the request must meet expedite criteria (on USCIS website). I then called the number and talked to an officer who took note of my request. Within 5 days I received an email saying the request had been accepted meaning they approved to have my case expedited.  Did not mean they had approved my removal of conditions. I called them back 2 days ago since I had not heard about it and I received an email this morning telling me the green card was in production. 

The key was to be able to talk to an officer and mostly meeting the expedite criteria which include: severe financial loss, emergency, humanitarian... 

Once you petition for the expedited request it is in no way guaranteed to get it though and they really mention it over the phone.

 

Hope this helps, 

 

 

Under which criteria did you apply for expedite? Did they ask any documents to submit in support to file that expedite?

i am working in none profit organization. I think I am qualify for that.
