Hey guys, I'm a late 2017 filer, I just have a question about extension after 1 year GC paper expiration, did you guys go to your local office within 45 days of expiration and were able to get an extension on the spot? This is what USCIS told me do. Just looking for experiences.

Yes, an extension meaning an I-551 stamp in the passport. They gave my husband a stamp a couple months ago (about 60 days before expiration of letter) without any problem, we just had to explain that he is switching jobs and needs it as proof that he can work. Many people here got the stamp several months before expiration.

 

Keep in mind that you don't need the stamp to keep your actual status, it is really only necessary if you are traveling internationally, renewing your driver's license, changing jobs, or need to show proof of status for any other official reason. They may also take away your green card, so make sure you have a copy.

I had the same update and then a day later i got a firm approval. The next week i got card mailed to me update with a tracking #. Don't fret. It's good movement. I got my card within 2 weeks of the new card is being produced update.

 

Congrats!

Yep, got transferred to Nebraska. Fingers crossed for an approval.

And nope, did not apply for N400. I am a divorce waiver.

Glad to see most of you getting approvals or transfer notices. I just checked my.uscis.gov and no activity on my end since feb 26. I guess my file is still at CSC.

Our case was transferred to Lee summit. So if it had been Nebraska, it would have been an approval for sure then? Thank you.
