Quick question.....my husband landed in early November, we still have not received my hubbies greencard and I am just wondering if anyone has the information of where I can check online to see if they have sent it, or if someone has a number he can call to inquire on it. I have tried to find information but not finding much.

Thanks in advance.

Dont have a #, but read a few posts on VJ that for some it is taking around 2 months + to get the actual greencard. They were told the system is backed up!!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

Same question being asked a lot lately.

You should have a I-551 stamp in passport, I believe that stamp is good for 1 year. USCIS is tremendously backed up from a flood of petition filings this past summer and this seems to be affecting all mailings from them.
