Just checked USCIS site...it now says "card is being produced".  I'm in shock. I thought it would take at least 18 months....

Anybody got the biometrics appointment yet? I haven't gotten anything besides the NOA and I am getting 

The others filed from last year and are only getting theirs now. Can't really tell which cases are on a "go" or at are stuck right now. As long as yours is extended for 18 months, that should be fine.

Regardless when we get this appointment and so forth, we will proceed accordingly. I already know what to do ahead.

Well with COVID and the furloughs, it's been a mess. They've always been kinda messy. Even though they're a government agency, they don't get money from the government. Yes, there are a lot of immigrants and yes, we all pay the fees. But the fees are not just for the USCIS employees and immigrants only make up a certain slice of the entire US population. The fees need to cover physical building and real estate costs, security measures, and the usual costs of running any business. One I-751 application right now is less than $700. I make more than that in one week at my current job. These guys are federal agents trying to uphold national security. As incompetent as they can be sometimes, they do need a LOT more money than what they're getting right now if they want to perform at the levels that most people think they should be operating at.


the problem is the I have spoken some people inside that majority of immigration officers are taking Asylm cases at first. Before Trump any illegal immigrant can apply Asylum and obtain work permit 4 years while waiting the Asylm court date. Now, Asylum applicants can get a court rate almost in 2 years. So our cases n400 or 758 whatever got stuck somewhere in the system.  N400 or 758 are NOT priority any more with Trumps administration. %75 percent of immigration officers working only for Asylum cases. This is the problem. In 2010 I got my green card in 3 months got my citizenship in only 2 months in 2015.

Maybe your case had issues. In 2018, my wife got her green card in 2 weeks. My wife's paperwork journey from VN to USA has been much faster than others. It is case by case.
