Same shoes as you exactly. No updates from TSC whatsoever. Very frustrating even though I’m happy for the others. 

Yup, me, too.  And VJ sent me an updated timeline for my case on Saturday indicating expected date of September 18.  I suspect there's huge skewing when there's a couple old cases that were interviewed finally get cleared, but that email sucked.  Can't believe that I interpreted being transferred as a good thing.  Super frustrating.

Thank you! 😃 looking forward to going places without husband worrying about carrying an extension letter too. Maybe he will get it this week or next. How long did it take to get yours once it went to “card being produced” status?

Actually my status never showed " card being produced" It went from "case approved" to " card has been picked up by USPS" I think it took a week until I've recieved the new GC after that. Oh, and I was never able to check my status on the new USCIS site,  only the old one.  Glad to be done with this for sure...

Is your hubby going to apply for citizenship anytime soon?

Okay. His status went from case transferred to card being produced. The new site is still sitting at case transferred. So maybe we will get his in a week. I keep checking to see if there is anymore update. 

Yes, he wants to apply for citizenship once he gets the card.

Just spoke with USCIS on the phone and they advised to discuss the issue tomorrow during the bio.

USCIS advised you to mention the I751 issue at your N400 biometrics appointment??? Whaaa?? I bet you spoke to a Tier 1 agent and not a Supervisor because that is preposterous.

 

When filing for naturalization, you have to include your green card....when the conditions have been removed and the new 10yr card is given, you should scan and include the new permanent resident card. If the new 10-yr permanent resident card shows incorrect name placement, it might raise questions as to why you left it the way it was.....always better to be safe than sorry.

Me three.  I wonder if its worth a phone call to USCIS to ask what the hold up is - mentioning that I'm aware that there has been approvals for May and June filers at VSC

You have to ask them for a Supervisor when you call.

I called USCIS last night.  I discovered that you can request that your case be transferred back if processing time estimates are longer at the new service centre than the original service centre.   Transfers are not supposed to negatively impact the time that it takes a case to be adjudicated.  If you request a transfer back to VSC, they will do so in a max of 30 days.  I rolled the dice and decided to request a transfer back.  I figure there will at least be attention on our case instead of festering in some corner in Texas.  I'll let you know what happens...

I like the idea, its a gamble, but I guess it gets picked up - its a pity they cant pull it out and process rather than send back to VSC, I wonder what the difference in timescale is in processing and sending it back?   

As you said its a gamble, maybe that corner of the office at TSC was next to be spring cleaned.  

 

My case number:   EAC181525****

Agreed...who knows.  But I've been keeping track of other numbers that I know were transferred -- on March 6, 13 & 20th -- and there is nothing happening other than a couple RFEs.  We were transferred on the 13th, case number:  EAC181345****  BTW I did try to request a transfer to Potomac, but they wouldn't do it.

Just got a biometrics notice after receiving re-use notice in february, appointment isn't until june 4th. I was really hoping for an approval. In everyone else's experience that got late biometrics notice recently, how long after biometrics did you get approved? Will I get moved to the back of the pile now? Is there still a chance for RFE after this? I'm a late april/early may filer 2018 and can't track my application online, new website just shows case received and old website shows validation error. So frustrating all because of the snafu last year! Also I feel the other poster who posted about renewing your drivers license multiple times, I've probably renewed my driver's license 4/5 times by now and will have to again

My case after bimetrics, (March 14 2019) take about one month to update (bimetrics complete) on the old site, then after two week my case was approved. no RFE. We got the card about 10 or 12 days ago.

Got a great news yesterday “Card being produced”!

CSC filer here.

Old USCIS website is finally working for my case number though new website still says case received.

No interview, No case transfer!

Congrats to all that has been approved and to those who are still waiting hang in there, your approval will definitely come soon!
