Waiting for green card

[karotte 0]

I'd like to join all the other impatient people out there.

My husband' greencard was approved at his interview on 2/15. We were told he would receive it in 2-4 weeks. It's been 2 weeks, and our online case status still mentions nothing of his approval. Is this normal?

I wouldn't normally care too much, but he is intending on leaving the country for a trip home in 4 weeks. We had everything worked out with AP beforehand, but I'm not sure that we could still use that.

So, any idea how long I should wait before *officially* freaking out?

It happens frequently that the online status doesn't get updated for a long time with the new approvals/biometrics/etc, nothing to worry about. I'm sure your GC will arrive soon by mail

We had our interview the same day as you, and we recieved the green card 3 days ago. I know that lots of times the online status can be very out of date, so I would not worry. I imagine it will come soon.

Adnan got his green cara almost exactly 2 weeks after the interview, so hopefully your husbands will show up any day now. I hope he enjoys his trip home!

I wouldnt worry as our interview was on Feb 27th and now when we check the case number online it now says that online updates are no longer available for this case. So we hope that is a good thing !

Good luck!

got approved dec. 8 - was made to redo biometrics on dec. 13. was called by my IO last feb. 23 since my data has not been updated. it was found out that they mixed up my 1-765 # & my 1-485 #. Up to now, I still do not have my green card at hand. was given a letter though that my case was already approved!

I know it's hard to just sit there and wait, but I'm sure you'll get the Green Card soon.

Did you get a stamp at your interview? If you didn't, and the date of the trip gets too close, go to your local office with your approval letter and try to get a stamp there.

Good luck!

Thanks for the suggestions. We haven't received an approval letter and we didn't receive a stamp either. Now I'm wishing I had pressed for a stamp or some sort of proof! We were just so happy to have the interview over with, we didn't think to ask for proof of approval or anything.

Ok, so meanwhile the trip is 3 weeks away on Wednesday. I'm going to give that green card another week to get here, but meanwhile I have to figure out a strategy in case it dosn't. Should I make an infopass appointment? Can they help me? Is the AP worth anything at this point? Any ideas?

Thanks.
