It really depends on your field office. Do you know if you belong to Fresno or LA?? 

 

https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ Select N-400 and your field office, and you will get a rough estimate on how long they process this application.

I never received the 18 months extension letter and I am an October 2017filer...I need to travel tomorrow and no time to get an infopass...

They told me that while outside I can apply for a transportation letter to then come back to the US....

so I will be back in a month with an expired green card...expired extension letter and with a valid transportation letter....(it cost 585 dollars!)

 

But I am still so upset that I didn't get an 18 months extension letter and that they are making me spend more money.....!!!!!!

 

I hope at least to get approved soon :(

 

Anyone in my same situation?

 

Thank you

 

They aren't making you spend more money.  The 18 month letters are a new thing  and it seems not everyone is being sent them - previously everyone did the infopass around the 12 month mark anyway. If you knew the trip was coming up, then perhaps you should have planned ahead for this.

 

Your method will work - and is your only option once out of the US as you can't get an I-551 stamp outside of the country - although on top of the cost you will have hassle at the embassy, hassle at the airport, and hassle at immigration.

 

Can you not attempt a walk in TODAY for a stamp, or tomorrow?  Maybe even delay your travel by a day or two - a flight change fee should be less than the cost of the transportation letter.

They certainly look more favourably on walk-ins with proof of imminent travel so they may see you, although not guaranteed.

 

 

 

CR1 / DCF (London): 2012 / 2013 (4 months from I-130 petition to visa in hand)

I-751 #1- April 2015 [Denied]

 

April 2015 : I-751 Joint filing package sent fedex next day 09:00am from UK ($lots - thanks). 
Jan 2017: Notification that an interview has been scheduled at a local office. Bizarrely still no RFE... 
Jan 2017: 2hr wait, then interview terminated before it began, due to moving my ID to another state 2 wks prior. New interview 'in a few months...maybe.'   Informed them that divorce proceedings are underway, but not finalised at this time. 
March 2017: An Interview was scheduled - marked as no-show as they didn't actually send out a notification of interview. FML 
April  2017: Filed an official complaint with the ombudsman, and have requested Senator & Congressman assistance
August 2017: Interview - switched to a (finalised) divorce waiver. Told that decision will be made that afternoon, but no problems foreseen with my case. 
October 2017: Letter of Denial received - reason given as 'I-751 petition was not properly filed'. Discovered ex-spouse made false allegations to USCIS in 2015. No opportunity given to review & refute allegations  - contrary to USCIS policy.

I-751 #2 - Oct 2017 - Mar 2021[Denied] 

 

October 2017: Within 72hrs of receiving denial notice, a new waiver I-751, divorce decree & $680 cheque, sent to Vermont via FedEx overnight 9am priority.  
Dec 2019: Filed FOIA request for full A# file
Feb 2020: FOIA request completed - entire A# file received as a .PDF; 197 pages fully redacted, and 80 partially redacted. Don't waste your time!
March 2021: I-751 #2 denied for lack of evidence. No RFE, no interview, and evidence in previous I-751 not reviewed - contrary to policy. Huge errors in adjudication.

N-400 - Feb 2018 - Apr 2021 [Denied]

 

February 2018: N-400 filed online.  $725 paid to the USCIS paperwork wastage fund

February  2019: Interview - cancelled after a four hour wait due to 'missing paperwork' on their end. Promised Expedited reschedule.

March 2021: Interview letter received, strangely dated after I-751 denial. No I-751 interview conducted. N-400 interview and test passed, given 'cannot make a decision at this time' paper due to the ongoing I-751 nightmare...

April 2021: N-400 denial received citing recent I-751 denial as basis for ineligibility, even though it should have been a combo interview 🤯

I AM JACK'S COMPLETE LACK OF SURPRISE

Service Motion - March 2021 [Sent via FedEx & COMPLETELY IGNORED by USCIS]

 

March 2021: Service Motion request sent overnight addressed direectly to field office director, requesting urgent review and re-opening, based on errors in adjudication - citing USCIS policy, AFM and memorandums as basis for errors. This was completely ignored by USCIS.

 I-751 #3 - June 2021 - Jan 2024 [Denied]

 

IT'S GROUNDHOG DAY

June 2021: I-751 #3 (30+lbs/5000 pages of paperwork) & another $680 sent to USCIS via FedEx ($300+..thanks) .... 

June 2021: Receipt issued, card charged, biometrics waived, infopass scheduled for I-551 stamp number ten.....

Feb 2022: RFIE (no, not an RFE, a Request For Initial Evidence) received, for copies of the divorce paperwork that they already have 😑

July 2022: Infopass for I-551 stamp number eleven.....

August 2023: Infopass for I-551 stamp number twelve....

January 2024: Denial received, ignoring the overwhelming majority of the filing, abundance of evidence, and refutation of a provably false allegation. The denial also contradicts itself in multiple places, as if it was written by someone with an IQ <50.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

 

2024: FML. Seriously. I'm done.

Agree. Try to do a walk-in and explain the situation that it is an emergency travel or something.

Thank you

you could just walk in and ask for a stamp tomorrow than risk going outside the country with an expired greencard and extension! and paying that much money for a document that you aren't even confident in doesn't seem like a smart way to lose your money. Just saying
