Hello all
I filed my i-751 to the TSC in august 2003, since then i have only
recieved a receipt-notice of action, dated 08/22/2003, i moved house in
11/04 and sent form ar-11 along with calling the BCIS hotline and
sending a letter to the BCIS and my local INS office in WPB Florida, i
recieved reciepts from all the offices. I have called the 1800 number
every month for about 6 months, and they tell me my case is pending, the
last call i made to them i was told my 751 had been sent to my local
office, which has changed since i moved,but they could not tell me which
office, miami, WPB, Orlando, and that it was still pending. I have been
living here for 5 years and have been married for 5 years.
So has anyone been having the same problem? any advice? it seems every
time i speak to the BCIS i get a different answer.
Thanks
David

Hi:
If that is your desire, file an N-400. It'll get the stuff together.

My understanding is that you can file the N-400 which kicks the
processing of the I-751 into gear.
Good luck!

It does get resolved. Filing N-400 is the wake-up call to get your I-751
out of cold storage and complete it so they can move on to the N-400.

Hi:
Not quite -- the I-751 needs to be resolved before the N-400 can be
approved. That is a different thing. CIS will recover the I-751 and
process both the 751 and 400 interview together. That way the CIS
collects fees for two interviews and conducts only one.

Just curious, what if he doesn't want to become a citizen? Just
keep waiting, I guess....and keep renewing the stamp in the
passport as proof?
