So today we received our 3rd NOA1 for our I-751 app that was transferred to CSC. All the notices have come from CSC and all are identical.

Looks like the fee increases are going to increased paper and ink costs. It will be interesting to how many biometrics appointment letters are mailed to us.

Thanks to all for the guidance and support and speedy processing to all!

Received a copy of our NOA1 for the 4th day in a row today. Forgot to mention they are wasting money on postage. We can only laugh.

Too bad they don't do that with green cards..... never hurts to have an extra in case one gets lost or stolen.

Lady, people aren't chocolates. Do you know what they are mostly? Bastards. ####### coated bastards with ####### filling. But I don't find them half as annoying as I find naive bobble-headed optimists who walk around vomiting sunshine.
