I remember seeing someone else on this forum complaining about the same issue. Hopefully they will send the official copy soon after. We are filing the N400 on September 11. Good luck to you guys!!

And to you guys

Strange! It says on mine it was sent to my lawyer or representative stated on the G-something form. I’m guessing yours is just a glitch. Aslong as you have the real notice I guess that’s fine! 

Mine says the same about the representative as well. But i dont have one!

I do have a lawyer but he hasn’t received a letter I don’t think, didn’t get a reply anyway. Looks like a lot of people in the August group received the courtesy letter who don’t have a lawyer. Nobody has received the real notice after the courtesy 😑

So my lawyer also only received a courtesy copy, so strange!

Received my 18 month extension letter too.

I travel in 2 weeks, my green card expired November 2, 2017, my notice date on the extension letter is September 2017 as we applied right away. 

 

Should i I go get a stamp, or travel with my current extension letter and the ‘courtesy copy’ new letter. Technically it is valid until November, as it’s 1 year from green card date not the letter. Hmm.

So when can we file the N400.  Do we have to wait until after the 10-year green card is issued?  Or can we do it after our spouses have been here for 3 years?  (We're going on 4 years now).

90 days prior to your 3 year anniversary of becomming a permanent resident.

 

Here is a site where you can use to calculate when you are elegible to file.

Just to say thanks for this calculator link ... Now I know I can file on 09/06 ... I will be filing online that same day 

[Jon York 156]

Thanks for that info.  But I'm still a little confused!

 

When you say on your 3 year anniversary of becoming a permanent resident.  Does becoming a permanent resident start at the time when you get the first green card - with conditions?  Or does it start after you complete the removal of conditions process?

I have been following the ROC August 2017 filers and a few of them got approved recently.  Hoping they will start processing September 2017 filers soon.

Take the expiration date on your green card (the physical card. not the extension letter(s)). Add 1 year and then subtract 90 days. thats when you can apply.

3 years since becoming a green card holder. For ex. I became a permanent resident  in Dec, 2015 so I use that as my start date to count 3 years. This also means I can apply for N-400 this year (I can apply 90 days before the 3-year mark).

 

Hope that makes sense. :-)

Oh wow!  I didn't realize that.

 

So, my wife became a conditional permanent resident on 10/9/2015.  Her conditional residency expired 10/9/2017 and they issued her a continuance letter which expires this year on October 9th.

 

So, could we apply for citizenship now?

You sure can! 

You could have applied on 07/11/2017

Im definitely going to apply for Citizenship as soon as I can. 

I think you should too!

Good luck!
