THANK YOU GUYS FOR ALL YOU HELP. I dont know how to myself to the list, but I sent my application DEC 29TH. Exactly 4 months.

First congrats to all who have received their cards.

Second, in case anyone's interested in the ongoing saga on my wife's 10 year gc:

The IO I spoke with two weeks ago never ordered CSC to resend the GC.

My wife's online case status has shown as 'address undeliverable' since I spoke with the IO two weeks about but I had a nagging suspicion that there would be more issues so I called again today.

I spoke with a phone rep who couldn't see any record of the IO requesting the card be resent. The IO never provided me with a request tracking number, so she said as far as the system is concerned, the card is just sitting at CSC until an 'updated' address is provided. I reconfirmed the address for a second time.

The call center rep said the card should be received within about 15 days and that the case may not update until a tracking number is provided. So, two weeks ago an IO tells me to expect the card within 6-8 weeks, now a CSR is saying 15 days. Who knows what the hell is happening.

Lesson I've learned:

The vast majority of cases go relatively smoothly, but when issues arise, the resulting clusterfuck can be spectacular. Vigilance bordering on paranoia can be a virtue in a system like this.

Get request tracking numbers for everything. Follow up obsessively.

Hopefully this ordeal will be over somewhat soon.

Congratulations to everyone who has received their approval notice or green card in the last few days!

HossDelgado - wow; what a clusterf*ck. I can't believe your ordeal! Thank you for the updates, though.

I have been paying particular attenetion to your experience because I'm the only person so far who has an approval notice but has been waiting more than the standard 7 or so days for the actual card to arrive. My online status said 'Initial Review' until yesterday and today it says,

  • Your case can not be found at this time in My Case Status. Please check your receipt number and try again. If you need further assistance, please call the National Customer Service Center at 1.800.375.5283.

So I called that number and they said I have to wait 30 days before they can begin any sort of investigation :ranting:

Hopefully this is just a small technical glitch. I have tentative plans to go to Zimbabwe in about a month and it would be great to have my greencard with me just to avoid the inconvenience of explaining my Extension Notice to arline and immigration staff in Zimbabwe.

Oh well......

Good luck to everyone else.

I'm sorry to hear about the issues you're having.

I'm no expert in USCIS processes, but what you're going through sounds unusual and I'd recommend being very proactive about addressing it. At a minimum, it will only cost you time and blood pressure.

As a first step, I'd recommend speaking with a tier 2 rep and explain the situation, or if that fails to make an infopass appointment. I'm not saying it's happened in your case, but it seems like the applicant has to make extraordinary efforts if their case goes off bureaucratic rails. You have no advocate at USCIS- it's just a machine and if you're not on the conveyor belt, you will probably be forgotten.

If you don't have your 10 year gc when you travel it shouldn't be too much of an issue. In my wife's experience, every immigration and customs officer she encountered at the airport demanded and inspected her NOA. One overzealous immigration checkpoint person even questioned why she was carrying a copy of her NOA and no the original.

Congratulations to everyone who has received their approval notice or green card in the last few days!

Today is the best day EVER!!! I just checked my status online and It says On April 29, 2014, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you. THANK YOU GUYS FOR ALL YOU HELP. I dont know how to myself to the list, but I sent my application DEC 29TH. Exactly 4 months.

THANK YOU LORD!

Congrats lola12 :dance:!! Let us know your NOA date (the Receipt Date on your letter) and Bio date, so we can add you to the list ;)

"On May 2 we ordered production of your new card"..well, there could have not been a better way to start the weekend! :D
