Hi...just wanted to note (for those wondering about how long these things can take) that we had our interview in Salt Lake City on March 9 and my husband's change of status was approved then. The interviewer said we'd receive the green card in about one week.

One week from that day (on March 16), we received a letter verifying the approval, instructing us about lifting the 2-year conditions, and saying the green card itself would arrive in about 3 weeks (that confused and worried me, but I decided to be calm and believe our interviewer rather than a form letter).

Today's mail just arrived and there was the green card...just 11 days after our interview. :dance:

Lifting of Conditions Timeline.......

20 Mar 06 Received 2-year green card in the mail!!!

22 Feb 08 Mailed I-751 (Lifting of Conditions) to Nebraska Center address

25 Feb 08 Issued I-797 NOA for receipt of above

11 Mar 08 Issued I-797 NOA for Biometrics

28 Mar 08 Had new biometrics/fingerprints done at SLC application support center

21 Jul 08 Issued Notice that petition was approved and sent card--but we never received the notice or card

02 Jan 09 Checked online status for petition and learned about 7/21/08 approval...immediately called customer service, who sent a report about it to the CA service center (where it had been transferred to from NE)

03 Jan 09 Received email from CA service center saying card sent 7/21/08 was returned by the P.O. and they would resend the card immediately

13 Jan 09 Finally...10-year card successfully arrived in the mail!!!
