You were married more than 2 years at the time of approval, he should be getting the 10 year card. As you can see by others timelines, the card should be arriving soon!

There is nothing else to do now but enjoy being together. He can apply for citizenship in 3 years. Other than that, you are DONE! It is a great feeling.

My husband came on the K3--------and good thing cuz the I130 took 17 months for approval. He had to wait til the AOS interview to get his Perm Res card. CR1/IR1 come automatically I think.

RM 00202.315 Enumeration At Entry

http://policy.ssa.gov/poms.nsf/lnx/0100202315

Answer "Yes" to Questions 33a. and 33b.on Form DS-230

If he checked off on the DS-230 to be assigned an SSN he needs to allow at least 3 weeks to see if the Enumeration At Entry process works. If he does not receive his SSN card within 3 weeks it's time to head on down to your friendly neighborhood SSA office.

Find office:

http://www.ssa.gov/locator

If he has been assigned an SSN the office can provide him with the number. However, it is has been over 14 days from the day the SSN was assigned and he has not received the card he will probably need to apply for a replacement card.

Take proof of age, identity and work authorized alien status. Proof of age is not needed for a replacement card.

Birth certificate, passport and I-551 card or MRIV with temporary I-551 language should be enough to take into the SSA office.

RM 00203.410 Evidence of Alien Status for an SSN Card for an Alien

Lawfully Admitted for Permanent Residence

B. KINDS OF EVIDENCE ESTABLISHING LAPR STATUS

-- I-551, Permanent Resident Card

-- Machine Readable Immigrant Visa with Temporary I-551 Language

Note: The MRIV shows the alien's identification number ("A" number) as

the "Registration Number" in the upper right-hand corner of the MRIV.

His status/documents must be verified before SSA will assign an SSN and/or issue a card if he submits an application at the SSA office.

The SSA office will try to verify his status through the SAVE system

while he is in the office. If they can't, they will send a form G-845

to immigration for manual verification. This could delay the assigning

of an SSN and/or issuing a card for weeks and some times months.

If the SSA office does send the G-845, suggest that he go back to the

SSA office no more than once a week with your documents to (1) ask them

to check SAVE again (2) ask if they sent a G-845 (3) if yes, did it come

back (4) after 30 days ask if they have followed up on the G-845 by

calling or sending another mark "second request."

After having waited at least 30 days and your local SSA office doesn't

seem concerned about following up on the G-845 he can try contacting

the SSA Regional Office (RO) responsible for your state:

Refer them to this:

RM 00203.740 Requesting Additional (Manual) Verification By DHS

B. PROCEDURE – HOW TO REQUEST MANUAL VERIFICATION

STEP 6

DHS should respond to SSA within 15 federal work days after receiving

the Form G-845. If DHS does not respond within 15 federal work days from

the receipt of the G-845 from SSA, follow-up with the DHS, USCIS

Immigration Status office. (Allow 15 days plus five additional federal

work days of mail time for the G-845 to be received at and returned from

DHS.

Follow local practice to follow-up with DHS. Some SSA offices have an

arrangement with the DHS, USCIS office to telephone for the follow-up

contact; other SSA offices send a copy of the original G-845 annotated

“second request.”) If the DHS response is still not received within 15

federal work days after the follow-up contact (if the follow-up is by

mail allow five additional federal work days of mail time for the G-845

to be received at and returned from DHS), make a second follow-up

contact. If the DHS response is not received within 15 federal workdays

(again, if the follow-up is by mail, allow five additional federal work

days of mail time for the G-845 to be received at and returned from

DHS), after two follow-ups, contact the RO. Also report to the RO any trend that shows a serious

deviation by DHS from the above time frames. The RO will consult with central office.
