We are currently going through the process of bringing my wife's parents to live permanently in the U.S. from Russia, with the I-130 petition. They will remain in Russia until it is all done, and go to their interview in the US Consulate in Moscow. My question is, when will they receive that actual green card (I-151)? Will they get it from the US Embassy in Moscow, or will they come here on some kind of visa, then go through some process here to get the actual card?

Thanks!

They will get the card by mail a few weeks after they arrive in the US. Of course they will receive an immigration visa after their interview in Moscow that will allow them to enter the US.

The US Embassy will issue immigrant visas to them in Russia. They will use these visas to enter the US. Upon entry, the immigrant visas are endorsed (stamped) by CBP. The endorsed immigrant visas are their temporary green cards (I-551). They should receive their plastic green cards in the mail about a month or so after their arrival.
