Finally got my 10-year green card today. I am a Vermont filer.  I sent my I-751 at the end of February 2017 and it was received by USCIS on March 3 2017. Decision (approval) date is January 25. I got the approval notice (letter) on January 29 but the status did not change then. It changed only to "my new card was ordered" on Feb 1 and to "my card was mailed" on Feb 5.

Glad to hear that some of us are finally getting approved. Awesome and Congratulations!!!

 

So, I have an interesting situation. I had sent the I-751 in mid-March 2017 but didn't received my biometric appointment letter. In May 2017 I decided to call them to find out what was going on, spoke to an officer and he informed me that I had a biometric appointment in April which I had missed. Well how could I have gone to an appointment when I never received the letter. The officer then informed that they would send me a new letter and it was scheduled for June, which I went to.

 

My question is, does that pushout my timeline or should i still expect to hear from them soon? I was hoping to take a mini vacation soon and this kind of messes up everything.

 

Thanks guys.

I am curious how many of the approvals without RFE were made with no affidavits? And how many pictures did you send?

 

I felt I sent strong evidence in several categories but I didn’t send affidavits.

Affidavits are not mandatory and optional. As long you have submitted other evidence you don't need to worry, Good luck.

Is your NOA March or April? your priority date does not change my friend. If you had never gone to your biometrics that would have caused a delay. Since you are VSC applicant you should expect to hear something within a month, regards.

I didn't submit affidavits since I did the initial visa process. I submitted a timeline of our relationship that I did in Google docs along with photos (from different moments around the US and our life together)--from when we met up to our life by the time I submitted all paperwork.

Affidavits aren't really worth the paper they are printed on.  The only reason to use an affidavit is if your other evidence is really weak... I wouldn't they'd factor into anything tbh.  This is based on a discussion over drinks wife had with someone who works in the space in DC.

Thanks for sharing. I am pretty sure we will have more approvals within a month for VSC applicants.
