Green cards have not arrived yet!

[Honey&Bunny 12]

Hello guys... I hope everyone is well and that workers at NVC are a little bit more helpful these days. I thought my nightmare with this whole process was over, but it is not. My husband and step daughter arrived to the U.S. Early on September, and still, no Greencard yet. My husband is working. He got his social security # with no problems, but we have not received the greencards yet. I called USCIS, and let me tell you, there are no choices in the phone menu for " new immigrant haven't received card in the mail yet"... The lady that helped me had no clue on what I was talking about. I made an appointment for December 7th on a uscis center, but I want to know if this is something normal lately.... Any suggestions and comments are welcome ☺️

Did you get a note/email/text saying the green card had been produced? You should be able to check the status of it on the ELIS website where you paid the IV fee.

Thank you for answering me.. Whenever I try to enter my case on the Elis website, it says "an error has occurred" I am completely lost. I have a confirmation number that email to me when I paid. I am planning on bringing that with me when I go the iscis center.

I meant uscis center..

Same here. I arrived at JFK in mid Oct and still no sign for either SSN or GC. We called for both like 2 weeks ago but were informed it's normal to wait up to 60 days (!?) Unable to track online with the same error msg, if I understand it right the tracking # should be the one we got after paying fee, right?

Anyway, good luck and please keep us updated

It can take up to 6 months for the GC to arrive if you paid the fee before the beneficiary arrived. Generally it happens within 3 months though.

Tracking number should be an IOE receipt number.

If you don't get the SSN card within 2 weeks go to an SSA office and get one.

Hi, you have to go to the social security office and apply. When I applied for my husband's visa, I also applied for the social, and when I noticed that a few weeks passed by and nothing, I decided to go there and inquire about it. Thank God I did. A week later, my husband and daughter got their social.

Hi... Can you tell me what IOE is? I am still unfamiliar with immigration codes, lol.

Well its the reciept number for your green card. It should start with IOE. Just like the original petition stsrted with 3 letters.

Wow! I am in a huge mess then. Was I supposed to get that number when I paid the immigration fee? All I have is the confirmation number for the payment of the visas. I didn't get anything else...

What does your ELIS account say?

Or you can call the USCIS for the IOE number.

I totally forgot that I created an account when I paid. I try to login, they already sent me an email with my username. Which is just my name, but when I enter it to reset my password, it says invalid username. Am I supposed to put something else besides my name? Like for example "johndoe@xxxxxxxx"?
