Green card production after ELIS

[Darnell 8,478]

UPDATE: My card will be delivered today but to the old address, I just checked my tracking number on USPS and it has been sent to my husband previous address in Seattle, now I'm in Oklahoma, although we made the change of address and filled in the AR11 form to notify USCIS about it 3 weeks ago, it appears that they just follow the address we put on the Immigrant Visa Application.

Ya, I'm flummoxed by this ELIS thing, thinking the green card would be shipped to the address stored in ELIS, that I entered.

No Dice.

I was lazy and didn't pay the fee for like 4 months after hubby POE'ed

Then hubby got his card less than a week later because all of his paperwork was where it belonged and they just wanted payment.

casefile movement = meh.

I would suggest something else:

A. WebStuff

___1. Get the receipt number from ELIS

___2. Enter the receipt number in CRIS , add the receipt # to your USCIS portfolio

___3. Wait a day, the updated info in CRIS will show up

B. Telephone

___1. Call the USCIS hotline number 800-375-5283

___2. Punch no buttons after the first ring

___3. A Spanish Speaker will come on the line , let them wind down, then say 'English Please!'

___4. Pose yer question to that sub-human. If sub-human is confused, ask for Tier 2, ISO, and be prepared to wait for 4 hours (or get a call back)

Go Get Em, and Good Luck !

When I go to ELIS, what receipt# are u referring to that I can add to the USCIS portfolio?

Because I tried to add the Receipt ID# IOE977xxxxxxx but I got the message

-customer portfolio insert failed

- attempting to add a case does not exist.

[Darnell 8,478]

that's ok - it won't be 'able' to be added until after 'optimized' status is selected at ELIS.

You've the right receipt #, fwiw.

Right so.... The fourth green card "failed". (I have no idea what this means.. Scrunched in the machine? Lost in the pile being transferred for USPS pickup? Used as a bookmark by a bored worker?!). Anyway as there had been no move or status update since 27 Feb I am guessing whatever happened did not automatically trigger a replacement and it has taken contact to do that.

By the way as I expected, 2 weeks to get an email response,

Sephris, have you heard anything new on your case yet?

No not yet. Nothing has changed.

How did you status changed? Is it because of your email to them?

Actually my status still hasn't changed again... But if they have said a request for production has been made I have to assume something has happened/is happening?

Don't feel too bad. My wife and daughter had POE on January 28 and we have been optimized since March 4 and nothing has happened or updated since then. I just sent an email to Texas so hopefully in two weeks we will get some sort of answer.

Good luck to everyone else who is waiting.

I arrived through Houston on 20th Jan 2014 and optimized on Feb 24th still no word and the IOE tracking says your OS155A Immigrant visa and alien registration being processed at our intake centre.

Does it say your card is in production on the USCIS (CRIS) site?

That's ELIS - what does it say here https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/Dashboard/CaseStatus.do when you enter your receipt number?

Ok so you optimized 24 Feb but no indication card production has been started... That is a bit odd I think.

Mine says for example

On February 24, 2014, the production of your new card began. 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 while this card is being created, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283.
