Green card

[Teddy Yo 0]

I have arrived US three weeks back through IR-1 immigrant visa, I have paid green card processing fee prior my arrival. But until now I did not get my green card while I got my SSN.

Please kindly share your experience and what I shall do, how long more it takes to finally receive it.

Thanks.
