SRC here.

 

We got notice of transfer by email in May 6. The email said they are ready to schedule interview.  Never received the letter in the mail.

At the end of May, we went online and filed on the USCIS website to get our notice, it said we should get something by June 18th.

We did not.

Here we are end of July, never got a letter in the mail about the transfer/interview, and no update online since April.

 

Any other SRC in the same position? Stuck since email notification of transfer/interview?

So we were waiting all this time for interview. ( in which I'm surprised with all the detailed information I submitted that we got an interview request, we have a child, we have joint accounts, house in both names, etc, etc)  I even called to check status and was told everything is ok still waiting for interview schedule.

 

Now suddenly a few weeks ago. we got letter transferring us to Lee's Summit. There is no mention of interview in the transfer notice, and we are still waiting again.

 

Any ideas on what this means or what to expect. Our extension letter expires in December.

Lees Summit is the NBC address. NBC is the service center that normally prepares cases for interviews. That's why you see most CR-1 cases have i-751 receipt numbers starting with MSC (that's NBC), they will have interviews.

So our 18 month extension letter expires in 45 days now. I"m trying to call USCIS, the wait is a very nice 74 minutes.

 

In Georgia they tie your drivers license expiration to the 18 month extension letter, so without a new letter, I think its impossible to renew the driver license.

 

what have others done to get an new extension letter? just call?

 

I seen so many other people get interviews or approved. We are very frustrated with the wait. It has been 11 months since the Fingerprints.

I am in the same boat. I moved from New York and my dl was based on the years I purchased but here in Georgia they base it on the greencard.   I patiently await. 11/30 expiration I am hoping they I get to us soon.

Sharing some good news! We had our interview in Kansas City on 10/8, and about a week later our status on the egov website updated to "card has been mailed," and my husband's card arrived the next day! We feel very lucky to have been approved within the 18 month extension letter window. Thinking of all those still waiting. Hoping everyone else gets their approvals asap!

K1

Spoiler

12/18/2015- NOA 1

1/29/2016- NOA 2

2/18/2016- Letter from NVC saying they're forwarding to Guangzhou

3/4/2016- Received P3, returned it about a week later

3/22/2016- P4 email

5/12/16- Interview. Approved!

5/16/16- After a few days saying administrative processing, CEAC now says issued!

Additional snafu: my fiancé came over on his visa, but just a month later (and the day before we were going to get married) he had an emergency that necessitated him returning to China.  I contacted the Guangzhou consulate via their email system, provided the requested documents/proof, and he was granted a second interview for "reissuance."  He had to re-do the medical, redo the interview (bringing yet another copy of all of the things he had to bring the first time) and we were approved again!  He received what looked like a new visa in his passport, but the original 90 day countdown for marriage was still ticking.  He came back to the US and we got married right away!

8/22/16- Married!
