Green at last, green at last, thank god almighty, green card at last!!

Just got the e-mail notification this morning that her green card is finally approved and on it's way. Just a week shy of a FULL @#%&*!! YEAR after we filed but hey, who's counting? So happy to be one step closer towards never dealing with USCIS again.

To everyone still waiting, hang in there. I know how terrible it seems at times, but it's worth the wait.

Can I get a HALLELUJAH!! Great news! Congratulations!

Well, honestly, if you do not like it. Just go back to your country. At least USA allowing you to stay on their land, even though the processes are slow and ineffective and takes ages of time. However

Hi everyone,

I hope we are all doing well. I checked my USCIS CASE STATUS and it read " My new card is being produced...On April 25, 2015, we ordered your new card for Receipt Number MSCxxxxxxxxxx, and will mail it to the address you gave us.....". I made a service request on 6th April as 6months from recieiving the NPIW Letter passed. This process took 9 months from filing to get to this stage, I am looking forward to receiving the green card timely. How long does it take after this notice anyway?

All other VJ Community users waiting hang in there! There is a light at the end of the tunnel after all. :idea::dancing::goofy: Congratulations to all other approvals.

Well it took a lot of faith to get to this point but now you can step to the other side of the fence where the grass (and card) is greener. Congratulations!

It's been a green letter day at USCIS. WOW!!

I saw many people received responses from Ombudsman under different names. You and I received an email from the same person ( /JB ). Someone at Ombudsman who wrote this email on behalf of the person name JB.

can i ask you how long it took to get this reply from ombudsman ? I contacted them a month ago ,all I got is an automatic response that they received my request .

What do you mean??

Hi guys, first post from me in a long time. Just letting you guys know my timeline so far

Filed early June not sure on the exact date.

NOA1 mailed on June 12th

Interview waiver letter sent out on September 25th

Up until April 21st it just told me it has received my fingerprint fee stuff

On April 22nd it updated to

Welcome Notice Was Mailed

On April 22, 2015, we registered your permanent resident status and mailed you a Welcome Notice for Receipt Number MSC omitted. Please follow the instructions in the notice. Your new permanent resident card should arrive by June 21, 2015, after this registration or after you complete any ADIT processing referred to in the welcome notice, whichever is later. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

If it's of any importance even though it says MSC my case was supposedly transferred to the Nebraska service centre a loooong time ago.

Hope this is useful for some of you.

The automatic email said if they can help, then they will let me know within 45 days. Ombudsman contacted USCIS about 40 days later and they said it could take up another 60 days to hear back from USCIS. Indeed, my case was approved about 40 days after Ombudsman contacted USCIS. So, it is 80 days from the day I submitted the request to Ombudsman to get approved.

This may be a silly question, but while we wait for our greencards after being chosen to be waived for interview (sigh), what is our current status? I applied for AOS last September, recieved NPIW December 30, and am now about to start work in a few weeks. One form asks me about my current status (Form I-9: Employment Eligibility Verfication) and I am not sure if I am a lawful permanent resident (or if that requires a greencard in hand) or just an alien authorized to work. Thanks!

You're in what's called a "period of authorized stay". Assuming you have an EAD, the correct box to check on the I-9 is "An alien authorized to work...". Use the expiry date of your EAD.

You're not a permanent resident until your AOS is approved.

MovinOn needs to get approved this week!! They are a march 2014 filer. They deserve theirs first.

We are May filers. I am ok with it because I know that it will come soon. However, husband is worried that something is wrong with our case...
