Just read that an (MSC) I-751 Feb 2019 filer had an interview in Chicago today and was approved.

I believe that filer filed via the Chicago Lockbox but their location is in Portland, Oregon

Yes, thanks for correcting.  However, it was an MSC case according to the post.

Indeed.  My case is also a MSC case, filed in February with current status interview waiting to be scheduled.  I will update here once I hear something, hopefully soon!

I’m a June ROC filer, just notified that my case was received and gave me receipt number starting with MSC. 

But I noticed on this site all people sending in my time getting receipt number, EAC or YSC, I don’t know why I’m the only different one. I sent loads of supporting documents.

Woo that's good news for me! My local office is Portland. Do we know when he originally filed the I-751?

Most likely your case was sent to MSC because you entered on a CR-1 visa as opposed to a K-1. This is the trend we are seeing. As you can see, almost all of us MSC filers here in this thread are CR-1's.

Yes it’s CR-1, but according to June ,19 filer on this site. a majority of people getting receipt number starting EAC or W.. or YSC. Is it like they all are on K1?

From what I've seen, K-1 visa holders have been going to Texas, Vermont, California and Nebraska. It seems all CR-1 visa holders are being routed directly to MSC (National Benefits Center in Missouri). There is no official data about this from USCIS about I-751's at MSC...we're just going based off of the data people have been posting here.

 

Feel free to add your case to @missileman's spreadsheet:

There are also people who entered on tourist and other visas...could be any of those. We don't know for sure. It just seems to be the trend that CR-1 visa holders are being routed directly to MSC for ROC.

Yeah, that seems about right. I got the green card after being on F-1 visa. So Vermont is my service center. But after the case was transferred to MSC, now I’m in the “waiting for interview” stage as you guys. So why my case needed to collect dust in Vermont for 18 months is a mystery.

That's super frustrating. We don't even know what the processing time is for those of us who were sent directly to MSC is, there isn't even an official processing time available.

 

Is 18 months within normal processing time for Vermont? Have you tried calling USCIS to see what the deal is? That just seems like such a long wait time to me, and now you're at MSC...seems crazy long.
