If you actually write the zip code in google maps you’ll see that both of these are in the same place. Mine says it’s available for pickup from zip code 75222 and it’s still the same building. So I think we’re fine 😉

yeah I think so too, Did your tracking info show PO Box no? Mine didn't with delivery on 75260 instead of 75266 with no PO Box info

Zip code entered on receipt is correct but tracking info shown delivery on different zipcode with no PO Box info? That is what freaking me out

They never give the PO Box info.

Hey @gregcrs2 I see you already have your biometric appointment on your signature, that was quick! 

I am wondering when did you get the paper receipt in the mail? I got a text on Jan 9 with case# but still haven't gotten the mail receipt yet.

I did not receive a paper receipt yet.

True. But hey at least your fingerprint is in. 

 

I have neither of the two and is now freaking out because of my new job. The company is asking me to show proof as my current GC is expiring in first week of April.

You have two options:

 

1) Make an Infopass appointment at your local Field office and get a I-551 stamp on your passport. This serves as proof of your LPR status for employment & travelling 

2) You can use an unrestricted Social security card + Driver License to show proof to your employer for I-9/E-verify purposes

 

Also, if your current 2yr GC is valid until April and unexpired when you are completing the I-9 form, that may be sufficient for employment authorization

For 9, if you have a USCIS online account, then you can fill in that number.

For children, I believe you have to fill in information of all your children as they do have space to check if they are living separately and if you are applying for them. 

Thanks springleaf

1.New York field office does not take Info pass or walk-in anymore  

2.My SS card was back from when I was on H1B, I think it said something like "based on employment".

1. The Infopass appointment has to be requested via phone now by calling the USCIS Contact Center at 1-800-375-5283. Based on other experiences I have read in forums, this can only be done within 30 days of your conditional GC expiration date.

2. I assume you never updated your work authorization with Social security after getting your 2yr GC? You can still try it now. I was also H-1B before AOS and had the restricted SS card and I got the unrestricted SS card soon after getting my GC.

Here is more information on this:

Did you send through USPS Priorty? I also sent it through USPS Priority on 11 Jan and delivered on Jan 14 but they delivered it on wrong zipcode . I have not yet receive any confirmation from USPS .dont know what to do?

Yes we did send it priority. You can check online to track the package, that’s the only way we know it was delivered. We haven’t received the confirmation in the mail either, it takes about a week so we probably will get that this week.

Hello everyone! My husband and I are about to file our i-751 as well this month. We are in the process of starting a business right now and while browsing online I did not find any examples of people submitting things like business licences/ permits, etc in both names with their application. I am debating whether it is a good idea and it shows that our finances are intermingled or is it a completely separate venture that is not really an evidence for anything?
