Yep, that was me.

I was able to correct the check at UPS... I'm friendly with the store owner. He's from Venezuela and super cool with helping me out. The ground shipments were picked up early but mine is overnight by air and that pick up is later ... so I'm lucky it was still there. You guys all rock.

I dropped it off at UPS this mornign.. I really hope this goes thru and I don't have to send it again....uggghhhhh

Yes we share the email account it links too... so we follow it daily

I sent a personal check and here is the envelope I sent... I hope it's ok. My cover page lists what's on each page by page number and except for the I-751 application each page is numbered in the bottom right corner. This application is "IDOT PROOF.. like a Microwave in 7-11" I hope this goes thru

I checked my online banking and I guess because the original charge was declined they stopped the transaction. Now I start all over again. How can I ensure this doesn't happen again? Is there an online billing portal I can use?

I just checked my online account. It now says processing. This morning it said declined. Maybe they ran it again... I doubt it... but I will wait a few days before resending.....uggghhhhhhhh

I got the call this morning from Bank of America that USCIS tried to charge my debit card which I filled in the form for them to bill me the $680.00 for the I-751 and the charge was declined by BOA since it was not recognized. ONCE i APPROVED IT OVER THE PHONE boa TOLD ME THEY SHOULD RERUN MY CARD. How do I send a message to USCIS to run it again, or do I need to send a new application with a cashiers check... god knows that will probably get lost by USCIS... the saga never ends. I wish I could just run the card online and apply electronically... such BS

I'm thinking Saul Goodman or reach out to Mr. Breaking Bad Heisenberg to bring her in through a truck carrying Los Pollos Hermanos, or finding an actual immigration attorney. By the way anyone looking for a cash friendly car wash?

The negative comments friends/ not really friends but.... people..... are making about bringing her in thru Mexico... is so aggravating They keep removing your comment... DM me... I want to know what your post is.

The State Rep that's helping us told me they would accept the late filing. Our USCIS liaison advises that (Deleted) can file the I-751 retroactively, and the form is available on the USCIS website here: https://www.uscis.gov/i-751. Once Mrs. Stein receives notification from USCIS that they have accepted the I-751, she can apply for a Boarding Foil I'm wondering if once she gets the boarding foil and comes back how long does it take to schedule the actual perm. (10 yr green card) interview? Or is there something else we need to file to schedule that?

Our USCIS liaison advises that (Name Deleted) can file the I-751 retroactive.. and my cover letter is very extensive... probably going into more detail than needed but You never know what to leave out. I feel like these people are idiots and you have to spell it out at a 5th grade level of reading. What is land PEO? in a landscaping truck buried under the dirt in a box coming in through Canada?

About the time you told me to file it I had also filed the DS 160 and the 131 and then the State Rep told me not to file anything else until they hear back or we will confuse the system. Yes I filed the I-751 yesterday.

My wife (Japan custom) has a 49 day grieving period in Japan until they bury her moms ashes with her father. Would be about April 22, 2024 and she has work there a few days before and a few days after so that will be in about 4 weeks now. and she has work there a few days after. SO hopefully this will all be resolved around that time frame. I am worried that this will take years to clear up. When we first filed for the fiance visa, online said 7-8 months but it took about 13-15 months.

Correct, If I didn't receive a letter about any conditions I would not know of it. I understand conditions from my business but I knew of no conditions to be removed.

How long does that extension letter take once they receive the 751?

We never heard of the I-751 until I posted here in this chat 2 weeks ago. I mailed the I-751 yesterday. And if filing the I-90 (I-90 Application to Replace Permanent Resident Green Card) was a wrong why do they call it the Application to replace Permanent Resident Green Card. and why not send it back saying this was wrong you need to file the I-751.

The boarding foil was denied because we never filed the I-751. I mailed it yesterday. I wonder how long it takes

Yes they both were denied since we had never filed the I-751. I contacted my state Representative last week, filled out their form giving them a release allowing them to pull my wife's file and this is what they came back with. "Good evening, Masako, Below is a copy of the response our office received from the Congressional Liaison at USCIS regarding the inquiry submitted on your behalf: Dear Ms. Gallagher, Thank you for your inquiries dated March 14 and March 20 regarding the LPR status of (name deleted). We appreciate Congresswoman Schultz's interest in the case. Please forgive the tardiness of our reply. We needed to contact U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services for guidance on the options that may be available to ______. The complicating factor in _____ case is that, as a Conditional Permanent Resident, she had been issued a two-year green card and was required to file to remove the conditions on her residence when that expired (Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence). USCIS records reflect that they sent a notification to that effect on September 9, 2021. USCIS states that it appears that, instead of the I-751, Mr. and Mrs. ___ incorrectly filed Form I-90 to replace her card, with the filing date recorded as November 5, 2021. Because the conditions on her residence were not removed, at this point ____ is not in status as an LPR. Our USCIS liaison advises that _____ can file the I-751 retroactively, and the form is available on the USCIS website here: https://www.uscis.gov/i-751. Once ____ receives notification from USCIS that they have accepted the I-751, she can apply for a Boarding Foil, following the instructions on Embassy Tokyo's website here: https://jp.usembassy.gov/visas/immigrant-visas/green-card/boarding-foil/. Getting the notice of approval for the I-751 will likely be the longer of these two steps; once that comes through, the boarding foil process normally can be completed within a few days. Please allow us to note that we are prohibited from pre-adjudicating applications and petitions. If ____ applies for a boarding foil, a consular officer will interview her and review any documentation she presents and will determine whether she qualifies at that time. We hope this information clarifies the situation for you and is helpful to Congresswoman Schultz's constituents. Please let us know if you have any further questions. Sincerely, Congressional Correspondence Unit U.S. Embassy Tokyo I hope this information resolves all outstanding questions you may have regarding this inquiry. I regret that circumstances preclude a more favorable response. If our office may be of further assistance in this or any other federal matter, please do not hesitate to contact us. With kindest regards, Bettyanne. So I completed the I-751 and sent it by UPS overnight to Elgin Il for processing. What really bothers me is this, I imagine we all have our USCIS log in account that shows everything from your first application to when you went to the bathroom at the USCIS office and how many pieces of toilet paper you used and whether you wiped front to back or back to front...lol.... Sorry for my passive aggressive feelings here.... see the statement above "USCIS records reflect that they sent a notification to that effect on September 9, 2021. USCIS states that it appears that, instead of the I-751, Mr. and Mrs. ____ incorrectly filed Form I-90 to replace her card, with the filing date recorded as November 5, 2021." Well if they had sent a notice about the I-751 it would be in the portal on our screen and I would have addressed it 3 years ago. This comment from them is the 1st I am hearing about it and I went through page by page of our very thick files regarding my wife's Green Card and there is not 1 thing in there stating about the I-751. And if filing the I-90 (See below- I-90 Application to Replace Permanent Resident Green Card) was a mistake then why do they call it the Application to replace Permanent Resident Green Card and why didn't they send me some type of correspondence letting me know we filed the wrong form and the I-751 is what is needed. The title of the I-751 is the Application to Remove conditions- What conditions are there? I never received anything about conditions. Here is what I see on the portal I-90 Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card Submitted on November 5, 2021Receipt # IOE980490XXX View PDF Your next milestone: receive your case decision. Time until decision: approx. 5 months The lady from the State Rep's office said had you used an immigration lawyer in the first place it all would have been done correctly. I'm sorry but it should be simple enough that anyone with a high school education could handle this process.... College degree in finance... but I guess I just got lucky and am really an idiot. I only wonder how long this I-751 process will really take now. I bet were talking 12-36 months... this really sucks. I'm soooo frustrated. 1 of my friends told me to bring her in through Mexico or Canada... that's not an option and it was a stupid thing to say.

USCIS only tells us to contact the US Embassy in Tokyo... they told us to file a DS-160 This morning USCIS told us to file a I-117 with the Embassy... just did.

I live in Fort Lauderdale... that's a long drive...lol

1st she was issued a 2 year green card- 01/03/2020- 01/03/2024, then as we were told 90 days before the expiration to apply for the permanent so we applied for the permanent and while it was being reviewed she got the I-90 with a 12 month extension, 12 months later she got another I-90 with a 24 month extension, that expired this past January 3, 2024 exactly 2 years from the expiration date of the original green card. Your next milestone: receive your case decision. Time until decision: approx. 6 months

What's LPR? This is the 1st I'm hearing of this.

Is the boarding foil another $575.00 fee?
