Hi again everyone! Just wanted to share another update that after a few weeks of patience and calls to USCIS we received my husband's 10 year card on Monday 7-1-24. I hope this thread starts to pop up with more updates soon! We brought down the average waiting time a bit!!!

Gotta be coming!!!

Hi all! Been meaning to give an update for awhile but I locked myself out of my VJ account by accident! Case tracker app randomly updated me last week that a new green card had been sent to us back on 5/29! No interview and we have not applied for N400. The text in the notification said to contact them if we didn't receive the card by 6/13, and we did not : ( This seems to be the trend as this happened with our letter back when we applied for removal of conditions as well. I submitted the form for the lost card on 6/14, and today the case status updated to say that the card was returned to them by USPS and that we needed to fill out the form which I already filled out on Friday. Of course its very nerve wracking to know that card is in limbo : ( But in good news, we got approved without an interview so hopefully this is good news for others!

Even though we STILL haven't received an NOA1, we did receive a letter on Saturday stating that my husband's biometrics are being reused and we will not need to come in for biometrics again. This lines up with the case update we got last week. It's slightly reassuring that we can still receive USCIS mail!

Just bumping this to see if anyone else has experienced this. Looking for anyone who actually used the site to request a missing form and what the next steps were. Thank you!

Yes - sorry I didn't use the right wording. That was what I meant by "online request." I completed that form on January 20th and they emailed that I'll get an "answer" by February 21st. Have you used that form? Do you know what sorts of "answers" people receive?

I don't think so, because everyone else both before and after me in my December group got their NOA1. January folks have gotten theirs too. Seems like this is just me. lol.

Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone has experienced having to get a replacement NOA1/Extension Letter? I've found lots of threads about missing NOA1 for K1 but my search wasn't showing anything for ROC. We sent our paperwork 12/17 and received our confirmation text the following week with our receipt date of 12/19. Now, over 6 weeks later, still no NOA1 in the mail. We've never not received USCIS mail before. Also, we got the notification yesterday that my husband's biometrics are being reused so I know our case is processing....it seems like maybe the NOA1 got lost in the mail. I submitted the online inquiry after 1 month on 1/20 and the email response said to expect a response by 2/21. I'm just wondering what sort of response I might get? Will they send us a replacement, or are we going to have to go through some kind of process or pay some sort of outrageous fee? We are obviously anxious about all of this and the potential that we don't have the document in hand when my husband's green card expires next month. Thank you in advance!

We still haven't received our NOA1 ☹️ I submitted an inquiry and am supposed to hear back in late February. We also got the notification that our biometrics were reused, but my husband and I are stressed about not having the paper proof of extension of green card. I'm really worried we are going to have a hard time getting this. I remember for K1 a replacement NOA1 was really expensive.... Also, does anyone else feel discouraged that they have changed the extension time for green cards for ROC to 48 months?! I don't love the expectation that this process could take 4 years!!

Has anyone else NOT gotten their NOA1 yet? It's officially been over a month for us now. So frustrating.

Hi again! So when I say AOS I'm referring to when we adjusted status from K1 2 years ago (i-485 and accompanying forms). This time around we got accepted the first time. Both times we were rejected with a form letter saying one of our forms wasn't filled out completely. I am not sure if it was the 485 or that ridiculous 944 - but we didn't have N/A written in every single blank and that is what I suspect the issue was. This time around we got our confirmation text and check withdrawn less than a week after filing - still no hard copy NOA1 in the mail though and it's been nearly a month so that's really frustrating!

Thank you so much! This is really helpful. Will wait a few more weeks and then submit it. I just want to have it in hand before the green card expires for obvious reasons!

Thank you! So if we don't receive it after 6 weeks, we can file an inquiry of some kind?

Ok, I was annoyed and impatient before but now I'm starting to get anxious as I see all these people posting about getting their NOA1. We sent our package on 12/17, they got it 12/19 and we got the text and card charged 12/22-23. Still no NOA1. Has anyone not gotten the hard copy NOA1 in a previous step of this process? How long should I wait until I reach out to them to ask about this?

Congratulations! We have a similar timeline so far! We haven't gotten our NOA letter yet and I'm very impatient to have that in hand but Chicago mail is notoriously slow so I'm not worried, just annoyed! haha

Also HI fellow DR/US filer : )

I'm so sorry this happened! If it makes you feel any better we had our AOS rejected twice and it was so frustrating! We got ours back with the stamps and sent everything back with the stamps on it except we printed a new copy of our cover letter and the application and signed/dated with updated dates. It wasn't an issue for us sending the stamped stuff back! EAC I think is Vermont which is moving the fastest right now! Congratulations!!!

You included more than us and in a much more detailed/organized fashion! Ours is just one big packet of stuff I didn't break it down into parts. Looks great!

Hi Chicago friend! We are in Chicago too on the north side : ) I only included tax transcripts, but seems like 1044 might be fine too!

Hey!! Fancy running into you here! Sorry about Potomac but things could change and speed up, who knows! Congrats on getting it filed!

The letter will state that her greencard is extended for two years. She can use that letter along with her passport/greencard to travel domestic and internationally - of course it's always the officer's discretion to re-enter but unless there's some other concern the letter should not be a problem. Pretty sure it's right in the middle of the pack. Vermont seems to be going super fast and Potomac super slow.

Ours was received Monday and check came out today (Friday) so you might have to wait until mid next week - but we were also Elgin lockbox so maybe Phoenix is faster!

Agree! We got our text yesterday and check came out of our account today!

We got our text today!! Arrived on Monday 12/19. Check not cashed yet. Nebraska Service Center

Eeek Congrats! I hope I'm right behind you! It's so hard to be patient (and such a long road ahead!) Congrats!
