We have no kids and made our USA Wills and POA

It was free and super easy to do.

My UK my dad made me do through a solicitor, when we went home to visit as my grandparents recently died, so Wills was very much in his mind. Very glad I did that.

Hope this helps. I will be applying for citizenship in a years time when I become eligible

Congrats on the fast clip!

wow congrats!

We filed ours about a month before you to the Texas office. We got an alert that ours is being transferred to another office on the 18th, and according to informed delivery from USPS we are getting something from USCIS today

Wow, Congratulations!! That is Amazing yours went through that fast. I filed mine in March of this year before the Pandemic official began and Am still waiting. I wonder if it's because I am in the New England hence they may have more applications? Anyways, Thanks for the update.

Thanks so much!! I was definitely not expecting it to go so fast. My initial one took forever and seemed like everyone who applied after me got theirs first. Not many foreigners end up in Oklahoma so I definitely think that helps timewise!! Here's hoping you will hear something soon!!

Yes, they waived around Oct 1

we got the notice which says it was transferred to national center in Missouri...seems a ton of i-751 were transferred there from Texas to help speed it up

Hello, big congratulations! Question about supporting documents: did you include documents from the beginning (same that you supplemented your I-485) and after your interview, or just from after the interview. Thank you!

I sent everything after I sent my original one (i'm guessing I-485 you are referring too?) So a few things that happened before my original interview (mainly a trip back to England) but 95% of it was everything that has happened since receiving my conditional green card.

Hope that helps and good luck!!

To be honest I am not sure how to help you so only giving you my opinion. Have you tried contacting them? My best guess would be that they send an RFE asking you to send in a new i-751 form. I am sure you are not the first person to have done this though and while it might delay your process, I am sure no other harm would be done. Sounds silly but have you tried searching this problem within this forum or google.

Wow that's great!

I sent everything in April, my fingerprints have been waived but still waiting, 223 days today since filing. From Philadelphia. A friend of mine (same nationality, italian) took almost a year to get the removal of condition. So I'm not too worried. Also, can't go anywhere

Yeah that's a great attitude to have!! I was shocked that mine moved so quickly. My Initial green card application took like a year and was expecting a similar timeline for this one

USCIS will probably just reject it and send it back. If you haven't received it and you are running against the deadline, you should call to find out.

Wow, I'm really jealous. I filed in December 2019 and it's been 398 days now with no word of biometrics skipped or case transferred. My case is at the Nebraska Service Center.
