Immigration Forum / USA Marriage Base / December 2006

I don't really have a question.
I haven't seen posts about VSC I-751s lately, so I thought I'd make a
current space for them here.
I guess I'm just opening this post as a record-keeper or a timeline, or

Hello to all,
My friend who just married a citizen was talking to a lot of people who
was telling her that even if his husband is not a US citizen and only a
greencard holder (immigrant) she can easily get her greencard in 3

Hi everyone!  I am an American citizen married to a British citizen.
We're currently living in England, as I have a 2 year temporary
residency.  I have now lived here for one year, but we would like to
move to America as soon as possible.

Is this true? if yes, by what percent? the total fee is 400 now and
could it be doubled? if yes, what is the speed of processing we are
looking at since this fee increasment is to help pay for more
worker for CIS.

Hi groups,
When I checked my case online today, I saw the following message. It
looks like done but I didn't not see the word "approved".  Can
anybody confirm?

I was wondering if there are any recent I-751 approvals (especially the
ones filed after July, 2006). Because that's when they've started using

Hi Every One,
I have one question, I got approval I-751 in Aug-2006. I went to local
district office to complete all formalities like, passport stamp, gave

OK, sorry to harp on about my favourite subject again but I was
investigating namecheck delays and have been reading the 2006 CIS
ombudsman report which I'm sure someone has already discussed.
Two things came up

Does anyone know if London will issue me the visa on the day?  They already
have my medical results, and I know they *used* to stamp the visa in on the

day for having it couriered to me.

It's nothing new I suppose - we hear these stories over & over & over.
This article caught my eye for many reasons.
I knew someone who got deported 2 years ago who similarly, had just
bought a house – she was detained a few days before the closing as

If the caseworker at your AOS interview tells you that you are
"approved" subject to the FBI background checks coming back all clear,
what is the date of your "approval"?  Is it the day you attended
interview, or the date they receive the FBI check?

This questions are not for myself, but someone asked me this the other
day and I could not find an exact answer.
What happens if an F1 student goes on OPT (i.e. receives an EAD based on
that) and then marries a USC, filing AOS? Can the person keep using that

Thanks everyone for your suggestions to my previous post when I received
an RFE for my I-751.  I just sent out whatever they asked for in the
RFE.  Does it mean that my application goes back in the queue?  Does
anyone have experience with RFE?  How long does it take after you send

Have a quick question, & was hoping somebody else may have the answer?
My I-751 has been approved & have made an InfoPass appointment to take
my passport, 3 photos etc to the Memphis office tomorrow.
I am going on my own, without my wife. The letter does not state anybody
