Hey guys, 

Do we have to file for N400 when i-751 is pending? I thought once we removed condition the card will be valid for 10 years. Please explain to me i got confused since i see you guys started filing online for n400. By the way mines is at YSC and no update. Thank you!

 

No but for most of us we want to be citizens so we file once we qualify. You don't ever have to apply for citizenship. It's a choice. You can stay a green card holders forever or apply anytime after you qualify. 

Cateogory: CR1

  • NOA1/Notice of receipt: Sept. 15, 2015
  • NOA2/I130 Approved: February 8, 2016 (NO RFE) :)

Thank you for sharing that! At first, I was worried it was a mistake, because I have read in the USCIS rules that at least one interview is required, or at least I thought!

Wow, i am so sorry!! That sucks so much. I don't understand the way they do things at all. 

Our local office is Kansas City, Missouri. I am sure our office has less cases than many major cities around the country.

how did you find out your case was received by the local office? did you get an online notification?

Thank you! We didn't get a text or email notification. We just looked after a few months of not looking and it showed up in the online portal.

It actually is case by case. When I applied, there were people who filed after me that got it in 3-6 months. It took me nearly 18 months to get it and others waited even longer.  It varies by office, agent, case,...etc. No real rule to expect.  Just keep persisting.
