Hi Karah,

I just checked my case status on USCIS website and it says they ordered my card production again TODAY. I googlged and many people had the same situation. It's kinda weird. My I-130 still initial review... Can't wait to actually have the GC in hand!

Keep me posted with yours

Hi Mr. Thai,

our are still the same. card/document production. i hope we will be receiving our GC in mail soon also. anyway, Congratulations! =)

No worries. My husband's interview was in Atlanta (28 June 2011). You were approved. My husband received the actual green card in ten days. The IO gave us an approval letter, but I have heard of others that have not. I guess it depends on what type of mood the IO is in.

Hi Black Velvet,

our IO was young. i think she's on her 30's only. she indirectly told us that we were approved.i asked her if she's going to stamp my passport and she said they dont do that anymore since the card comes into mail fast already.but she told us that we can wait it in the mail and can check it in their website.she also discussed to me the ROC. i hope that meant that we were approved.she also took my I-94

i hope we can receive it also the GC within 10 days as yours.waiting time is killing me lol =) thank you so much

Hi karah0215,

I dont if you remember my other post..... I was worried coz my IO (July 27, 2011) in Atlanta told me that I needed a waviver for working without a work permit before preoceeding with my AOS but she neither denied or approved my case. And like yours I checked my online status and it was on Card/Document production. I didnt know what to make of it or what to expect. Needless to say Im really surprised to find a welcome letter in the mail today....... 3 days after the interview which I thought didnt go as well as it could have. The letter does say that the Permanent Resident Card will arrive within the next 3 weeks.

Hi jbbig321,

wow, thats really fast. i haven't check our mail today so i dont know if we have a welcome letter too.. does your I-130 USCIS account change from initial review to approved? ours are still the same to "intial review" and the I-485 still card/document production. i hope we will hear something in few more days. congratulations to you!

Looks like July 27 interviewees in Atlanta are moving along..mine was last July, no changes in the online status or letter in the mail..instead of being concerned though I have this "bring it on" attitude..haha!I didnt overstay nor worked here so Idk what's taking so long for Indianapolis to make a deciison on my case. I was enither approved nor denied ..the I-130 though was specifically approved by the IO during the interview..have to go on with my life now..can't put anything on hold whille they make a decision...will face whatever they have on me..:)Baffling to say the least..am not the only one adjusting from B visa..so Idk whats up with uscis..lol..I never had any road block since we filed for the AOS..everything came along at reasonable time..everything except the green card now...so ...hahah!Idk.

Have a safe weekend everyone.

Yes.... my I-130 is was approved back in March, 2011. I went a different direction in that I filled I-130 first and I got a approval on it in about 4 months, then filled I-485. And yes my I-485 online status is still on card/document production. Thanks and hope you get yours soon too.

Hi jbbig321,

i already received today the "welcome to the united states of america" letter and also that I-130 has been approved! so happy. Thank you God! since were from Dothan and your from Birmingham,maybe thats the reason why yours came earlier than mine. pls let me know whenever you receive your GC. thank you so much

Hi jbbig321,

same thing that happened to me. i guess because we have the same interview date (July 27) and the same field office ( ATL).

after our interview on July 27, we checked it online also and the I-485 was card/document production. on the interview, she indirectly told us that we were approved. she told us to check it online and wait on the mail.she discussed also regarding the ROC.

i received the I-130 that it has been approved yesterday (Aug 1) and the I-485 welcome to the USA .

i checked the USCIS website and changed to on Aug 1, we ordered production of your new card.

and today, Aug. 2, it changed to Post/ Decision activity. we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I485 APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS.

I'm not worried to much now since i know they have approved it.we will be waiting our GC in the mail pretty soon.

so my next step is to go to DMV this week since they refused me 2x even i showed my EAD and SSN and all the documents i received from USCIS. they wanted to see the approval notice. lets see whats gonna happen this time =)

Hi Karah,

I am happy for you that you have received the Welcome notice. For me, I just got my physical green card today. However, I did not get any Welcome to America letter or any letter for I-130 approval. For online status, my I-485 says post-activity but my I-130 still at Initial review. I don't know is it normal or not.

Anyway, Congarts on your case!
