Received Biometrics letter dated 3/8 for appointment on 3/26. I was hoping they would let us skip. But at least this removes the uncertainty and doesn't interfere with any travel plans we had.

 

Puerto Rico - here we come!

 

Do you think we need to carry any immigration documents going to PR and flying back? 

Same thing for me, biometric dated 3/8 for appointment 3/26, everything is going smooth with my case, good luck everyone..

You won't receive a letter for the children.  They are covered by your husband's extension letter.  If you filed the children with your husband's I-751 they need to go to the Biometrics appointment with your husband.

In my case that is incorrect. I thought that was the case but the minor children receive  their own case number, and noa, and an extension as well. If you scroll up to earlier posts you will see related posts results of phone call to uscis...

I talked to USCIS and the officer did say my children have a different case number but to bring them to the biometrics appointment when there mother goes.  He also said that the I-751A in reality is not a "real" form.  No where will you find anything stating a I-751A form.

It says it right on my uscis case status online. You were not informed properly. See attached screenshot. 751a is Feinstein a real number. You are right about biometric appointment. But if the extension letter and noa attached a minor, the A number would note it. Amen you call you have to ensure you speak to a tier 2. They also have to submit an internal form and you get a receipt number

Hi,

 

I received a NOA yesterday to say they "have completed a preliminary review of the petition and are transferring my case to the national benefits office (it was previously in California). Is this just a normal part of processing? It says it is in the letter. I just wasn't expecting to hear anything other than a bio notice or nothing for a year! 

 

Thanks

Yes, did you already receive your 18 month extension letter?

Good news. The similarities with G2R are uncanny. 
 

I received a text message that my case was received 18 days after they received the package.

Adding on to this. Pretty much in the same boat as G2R.

 

Mailed to Lewisville.

 

Mailed the package on 2/26. It arrived on 2/28. 

 

So far nothing yet. No check cashed (also a personal check), no message, and no returned package.

 

Will update when I hear something.

Wow, awesome. Now all you have to do is wait to hear from me 😂. Just kidding. I am happy that you got it. I received the extension letter 3 days after the text. Hope you get it soon.
