Yes, after a long wait I finally received a green card. No interview either!

Came here on K1 visa and received a green card that expires in 10 years. Expiration date is 07/2023. I thought that first greencard would only be good for 2 years?!

Did anyone else receive a permanent resident card that expires in 10 years??

Have you been married for more than 2 years? If so, the 10 year Green Card would be the correct one. If under 2 years of marriage, you should recieve a 2 year conditional Green Card.

Finally!!!

On August 21, 2013, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you. If we need something from you we will contact you. If you move before you receive the card, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283.

No interview, but did need to go get background checks/clearances from the City, County, and State police departments August 9 and then mail them in on August 12 to the local USCIS in Oklahoma City. Good luck everyone that is still waiting.

P.S. Hope it's a 10 year one, since we've been married over 2 yrs.

We just received our 10 year green cards yesterday. Guess I'm the last of the October filers to receive their green card. No worries for 9.5 years :)

We also received 10 year GC. From my understanding we should of received 2 year conditional GC. I guess USICS made a mistake. You need to check.

Thanks and hope you get yours soon foreignrelations. @s2kroma, we've been married for over two years...from my understanding that's why we have the 10 yr GC. Lol if that's not the reason, then I'm not gonna inquire though :) Unless I hear something else.

Congratulations chrismanilyn! I put in a request with my senator's office last week, so I hope that will get results for us too. Did you see a change in your status online, or did the letter come out of the blue? (Just curious because I check the online status obsessively.)

Congratulations guys/gals! I received txts and emails with status changes online before the letter arrived. Then more txts, emails and online status changes before receiving mail mail...
