Hello everyone,

We had out interview last week and things went well. Aside from our interview person being a bit cold and a little rude. She asked why we didn't submit an I-130, I explained that we had and that it was approved in Jan. I gave her the copy of our letter and showed her the original. I then went on to explain why we adjusted status instead of hubby going home (health issues with daughter). She asked a few questions about my daughter's health. She went over the I-485 asking the basic questions that you answer yes/no to. She never once brought up an issue or problem. At the very end she said "Well since the I-130 is approved already I don't really need to do anything, you approved. However, I will need to email the NVC to make sure they have the I-130 and that is all in order". I asked her how long that would take and she said "Not long, I will email them as soon as you leave, you can expect your card in about 4 weeks". We thanked her and left. It has been a week now and we haven't heard a word! Status online hasn't changed or been touched. Should we be worried or is this normal for them? I'm trying not to worry but adjusting from VWP makes me a bit paranoid about things lol

Thank you :)

That online status website is at best worthless, and at its worst drives people crazy. Your best bet is to forget it even exists. You are just one week into what she said would be a four week timeframe to get your GC, so too soon to worry, and no more going to the status website--OK ??

My online status was updated within a day but some take a while to update and some are never updated. I would give USCIS a call to follow up or make an info-pass just to be sure everything is in order (but I am a paranoid person).

Good luck :)

me too. I got approved on spot and IO gave me stamp. However, the online status is never ever updated!! This afternoon I called USCIS hotline, the lady was a little bit impatient and told me only 12 days ago you had interview, everything is pending right now. She didn't disclose anything or .. whatever, we will keep waiting and in 30 days still have no news, we will make info pass!!

Waiting after getting approved is more annoying!!!

YES, you are ABSOLUTELY right!! My friends keep telling me this truth. When I work, my eyes are always on my phone rather than computers. Hope my boss isn't pissed off!

the call does help! Just now I received the update -

On February 27, 2013, we mailed you a notice that we had registered this customer's new permanent resident status. Please follow any instructions on the notice. Your new permanent resident card should be mailed within 60 days following this registration or after you complete any ADIT processing referred to in the welcome notice, whichever is later. If you move before receiving your card, please call our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283. :dance:
