Hey There,

I had my CR1 visa approved on Aug 31, 2011 in Montreal. Received my passport, and POE package a couple days later, then arrived in the US on the 10th of September. Since then, I've been waiting for my GC and SSN to come in the mail. I received 2 envelopes today from USCIS, neither had either card in them, but instead 2 separate I-797C forms. One stating that USCIS had received my POE paperwork/Welcome Notice, and the other stating I would have to wait another up to 2 months for my cards. Is this delay normal?!? I had a friend who had her CR1 visa approved on the same day/same location and already has her GC/SSN.

Thanks in Advance!! :)
