[Deagle 508]

I paid the fee before entering the US and received my GC 8 month after entering.

It was chicago... did u call USICS to ask about the status of the GC??

[Kastrs 723]

I called and they said I need to wait at least 60 days before they can help me (I called just before that) I need to call again, but they have refused to talk to me without my husband present which is difficult with work schedules

Thank u for replying, and if u don't mind I need to know about removing condition; did u start that for ur husband or u should wait to get the GC first?

U know I called them and the asked about the receipt no in order to know the status of the green card. Do u have receipt no?? If u do, then how did u get that??

Thank u in advance

...you do not remove the conditions on your GC until 90 days before you GC expires (90 days before is the earliest you can apply). So we still have another year and a half before this.

You will need to call USCIS along with your husband (assuming he is the immigrant) in order to get an update about your GC production

Along the same lines.. 60+ days since our POE and pmt). Haven't received GC yet. When attempting to track using IOE #, getting this error:

Validation Error(s)
You must correct the following error(s) before proceeding:

• User-Defined Error

Used to be a different error before. Anyone else getting this?

Yes! Very confused myself. We messed up a bit (although everywhere online says it's okay to do things "out of order"). His IR-1 visa was approved 9/29. His POE was 10/29. We forgot to pay the IV fee until 12/18, after he had a HORRIBLE time at customs (we're transitioning, so he'd come and gone and was back with more stuff). The horrible time at customs may or may not be related to the lack of paying for the IV, but it shouldn't have mattered as his visa was already endorsed so he'd have PLR status (right?).

Anyway, we attempted to check on the status of the GR production and when we enter the receipt number we have, it just references back to the original case itself (before it even went to NVC) -- nothing at all about the GC.

I read on another forum that you have to make an ELIS account login to check it. So we did that.... but it asks for an online access code we don't seem to have, so that's no use either.

We're at a loss as to what to do. We, too, called USCIS and we were also told not to call until after 60 days had passed. It's unnerving to think that you'd have to wait two months before they'll even confirm if something's wrong, THEN you can go about trying to fix it. UGH!

Anyone else in the same boat? And has anyone else forgotten to pay the IV fee until after POE and it worked out okay? I need some encouragement!

Finally, any thoughts on why my husband's last customs experience was hellacious (3+ detainment!!!)? He already has an endorsed IV, but they emphatically insisted he needed to produce proof of Canadian residence, which he didn't have on him (why would he since he was going HOME??). Sigh.

Because cbp can be dumb.
