New in the New world

We mailed I-751 to Nebraska on March 1. Days after we got NOA saying that PR card has been extended for 1 year. I saw here that people get another letter from Nebraska 2-3 weeks after asking for original PR card and then they get 10 year PR card in the mail. We have not received any letter for more than a month. Has anyone filed I-751 with Nebraska SC in February - March time frame?.

I would say things at NSC have been kind of slow lately...you would recieve yellow letter asking you to submit your original GC soon.

Not everyone has received the same type of letter after application or approval. I suggest you just hang tight and respond to whichever letter you actually get.

Hi
Based on the information shared within this group, this letter is NSC specific. People from this group (including me) who filed I-751 after Nov/Dec 2005 at NSC have all received this letter to submit their original GC. If you know someone who filed I-751 at NSC after Nov/Dec 2005 and did not get this type of letter, please share that information with us.

Here is a friend of mine's time line (she got her 10 y GC already) and
how mine goes so far... (both with NSC)

My friend;
filed I-751 - October 28 2005
received 1 year extention of status - November 14, 2005
received the yellow letter asking for original green card - Dec. 15,
2005
she didn't send the original, only copy of it - both sides, arround
Dec. 28-29, 2005
received 10 y GC in the mail (w/out appontment )- February 13, 2006

Mine;
filed I-751 - Feb.24, 2006
received 1 year extention - March 4, 2006
recieved the yellow letter - March 14, 2006
i sent copy of my green card ( I already sent it in the first time, but
....) - March 16, 2006
still waiting for GC in the mail.... keep fingers crossed :-)

But as many point out, while you are waiting...you are getting closer
to your time to file for citizenship...I guess it is a win-win ;-)

best of luck to all waiting (includiing myself) !

[QUOTE=Iliana she didn't send the original, only copy of it - QUOTE]

Your friend ignored USCIS instructions and still got approval? That is interesting. Did your friend write a letter why she could not submit her original GC? Just curious!

New in the New world

The beneficiary's Form I-551, Permanent Resident Card ("green card") and the Permanent Resident Card(s) of his/her conditional resident child(ren). Make a copy of the front and back of each beneficiary's card and retain them for your records. Attach the original card(s) to the letter as directed and send it/them to the address on the letter. Note: The I-551(s) may be retained if it/they will be needed (e.g., for travel) before the Form I-751's projected adjudication date (the processing time goal is six months). Those who do not submit the original I-551(s) may provide a statement as to why they are not submitting the card(s). In most instances processing times will not be affected should the original card not be returned.

New in the New world,
Finally you received your yellow letter! Good.

New in the New world

Unfortunately not. I was just speaking from what I learnt here. I am starting to believe the yellow letter was misdelivered. We were on vacation beginning of April and had our mail on hold. I do not know if that affected anything. Could you tell me the address they gave in the yellow letter to send the original green card? Do you think I should send my card to that letter anyway?
Thanks,.

Please do not worry. Maybe NSC sends this yellow letter selectively. If NSC did not ask for it, I would not worry about sending it.
If it bothers you a lot, make an infopass appointment and talk to immigration officer. If you have not responded to RFE(which you think might have been lost in the mail), officer would be able to tell you.

I finally got it today, after sending a letter to Nebraska Service Center this morning, telling them that I worry the letter that I found out they send to all I-751 petitioners was lost.
My yellow letter was dated April 1, but delivered today. I still think it was misdelivered, return to post office and then delivered again to the correct address.
Thank you again for you answers. Please keep us updated when you get your approval letter. Also, could you please tell me did you send pictures again, or anything else, since I sent everything in the original letter..
