My I-751 status changed on January 5 from is being reviewed to “new card is being produced”. No interview.

Our status just updated to "New Card is Being Produced" - so I guess we were approved.  I am a WAC filer, NOA June 11, 2021.  It appears our interview was waived.  Glad this appears to be over.  Next

Just check online and it says approved since last week.   The card is in the mail.  What a nice surprise! Looks like they have decided to skip our interview.

My case status now this morning shows "Case was updated to show fingerprints were taken"

This is a new one for me, as I have had to do biometrics for both my prior filings.... does this mean biometrics waived for this filing?

Edited by mindthegap

CR1 / DCF (London): 2012 / 2013 (4 months from I-130 petition to visa in hand)

I-751 #1- April 2015 [Denied]

 

April 2015 : I-751 Joint filing package sent fedex next day 09:00am from UK ($lots - thanks). 
Jan 2017: Notification that an interview has been scheduled at a local office. Bizarrely still no RFE... 
Jan 2017: 2hr wait, then interview terminated before it began, due to moving my ID to another state 2 wks prior. New interview 'in a few months...maybe.'   Informed them that divorce proceedings are underway, but not finalised at this time. 
March 2017: An Interview was scheduled - marked as no-show as they didn't actually send out a notification of interview. FML 
April  2017: Filed an official complaint with the ombudsman, and have requested Senator & Congressman assistance
August 2017: Interview - switched to a (finalised) divorce waiver. Told that decision will be made that afternoon, but no problems foreseen with my case. 
October 2017: Letter of Denial received - reason given as 'I-751 petition was not properly filed'. Discovered ex-spouse made false allegations to USCIS in 2015. No opportunity given to review & refute allegations  - contrary to USCIS policy.

I-751 #2 - Oct 2017 - Mar 2021[Denied] 

 

October 2017: Within 72hrs of receiving denial notice, a new waiver I-751, divorce decree & $680 cheque, sent to Vermont via FedEx overnight 9am priority.  
Dec 2019: Filed FOIA request for full A# file
Feb 2020: FOIA request completed - entire A# file received as a .PDF; 197 pages fully redacted, and 80 partially redacted. Don't waste your time!
March 2021: I-751 #2 denied for lack of evidence. No RFE, no interview, and evidence in previous I-751 not reviewed - contrary to policy. Huge errors in adjudication.

N-400 - Feb 2018 - Apr 2021 [Denied]

 

February 2018: N-400 filed online.  $725 paid to the USCIS paperwork wastage fund

February  2019: Interview - cancelled after a four hour wait due to 'missing paperwork' on their end. Promised Expedited reschedule.

March 2021: Interview letter received, strangely dated after I-751 denial. No I-751 interview conducted. N-400 interview and test passed, given 'cannot make a decision at this time' paper due to the ongoing I-751 nightmare...

April 2021: N-400 denial received citing recent I-751 denial as basis for ineligibility, even though it should have been a combo interview 🤯

I AM JACK'S COMPLETE LACK OF SURPRISE

Service Motion - March 2021 [Sent via FedEx & COMPLETELY IGNORED by USCIS]

 

March 2021: Service Motion request sent overnight addressed direectly to field office director, requesting urgent review and re-opening, based on errors in adjudication - citing USCIS policy, AFM and memorandums as basis for errors. This was completely ignored by USCIS.

 I-751 #3 - June 2021 - Jan 2024 [Denied]

 

IT'S GROUNDHOG DAY

June 2021: I-751 #3 (30+lbs/5000 pages of paperwork) & another $680 sent to USCIS via FedEx ($300+..thanks) .... 

June 2021: Receipt issued, card charged, biometrics waived, infopass scheduled for I-551 stamp number ten.....

Feb 2022: RFIE (no, not an RFE, a Request For Initial Evidence) received, for copies of the divorce paperwork that they already have 😑

July 2022: Infopass for I-551 stamp number eleven.....

August 2023: Infopass for I-551 stamp number twelve....

January 2024: Denial received, ignoring the overwhelming majority of the filing, abundance of evidence, and refutation of a provably false allegation. The denial also contradicts itself in multiple places, as if it was written by someone with an IQ <50.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

 

2024: FML. Seriously. I'm done.

It also depends on your type of visa on your green card

CR-1 will most likely go to MSC

CR-6 will go to TSC

@Dongbei, there may be several factors involved. It looks like your location, how busy the service centers are at the time of filing and whether you came to the US on a

CR-1 visa, are all factors. If you came to the US on a CR-1 visa, then your case will be assigned to MSC right from the get go or will be eventually transferred there.

No, MSC.

Prior two I-751s were both EAC 

 

Edit to add: the package was delivered to Phoenix only a week ago and text/email with receipt issued within a couple of days.

Hello! I sent my I-751 packet with FedEx on 06/16/2021. FedEx confirmed delivery on 06/18/2021. Waiting for text/email. Check hasn't been cashed yet.

Hello all! Just received USCIS text message. Checked cased status online which shows:

 

(I filed with a divorce waiver and with an expired conditional green card (Expired 11/28/2020). Thankfully non of that delayed the initial NOA receipt issuance)

Thanks for your input. Yes, it was CR-1. So it'll almost certainly go to MSC it seems. Where can I check the processing times for MSC? On this page: https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ I can't see the national benefits center on the drop down?

 No published processing times? So then there's no way to follow up if it is outside the normal processing time? That's a bit frustrating.

 

Do they still give you a "Receipt date for a case inquiry" so you have an idea of the upper range of the processing time?

That is a really good question, @Dongbei. It seems like there is no publicly available way to get a receipt date for a case inquiry.

 

I just checked the processing times and USCIS just updated them.
