No need to freak out. You're still legal and 751's aren't the highest priority for USCIS at present. Try InfoPass if the stress is getting to you....

I agree, try INFOPASS just to check out and if you need a new stamp.
Even for non waivers has taken that long as well.

Re: I-751 waiver its been almost 13 months
Ok Thank you guys, I got stamp in my passport about 4 months ago and its valid till Feb 14th 09 so i guess i am ok with that. But I don't understand i have a friend who filed same time as me, also transfered to CSC I-751 waiver. Got interview on May 30th, But I have never heard from him since then. Maybe he got deported? Cause I remember he was telling me that he is attending the interview without an attorney. Just curious. Thanks for your answers.

If you feel better with one then by all means hire one, but I know and have read of many folk over the years that have gone alone as did I...its weird but I kinda feel if you go alone it shows you are confident and have nothing to hide by taking the lawyer its like I need back up, not I am not saying I am right, just my opinion.
What ever you chose to do I am sure you will be fine

Hi milan79,
Anything new ? For me my green card extension letter for I 751-waiver application will expire in a month and still has not received a decision.

Re: I-751 waiver its been almost 13 months
What documents are required to get the I-551 stamp? I have lost my Conditional GC, but have filed I-751 and received the letter that the card is valid for another year.
