Hi everyone,

So I paid the GC immigration fee on Monday after receiving my IV packet. The payment finally debited my bank account today. On Monday I printed off a confirmation page which contained a Pay.gov Tracking ID number and an Agency Tracking ID. Now, neither of these work on the Track My Green Card page of the USCIS website and I've been reading about a payment receipt number which allows you to track the green card status. So, will I receive a tracking number now that the payment has finally been made or is this something that happens after POE (which in my case will be Monday 18th)?

Bit of confusion so close to the moving date and any and all answers will be greatly appreciated.

Best,

Andrew

My understanding is the IOE number is needed which is only on the confirmation page when you paid not on the email receipt. post-213357-0-28781600-1452719101_thumb.jpeg

What a brilliant system.

Luckily my wife printed the page. Unfortunately the IOE number doesn't help for us - it just says "User-defined error" when we try to check status.

Now waiting for 4 weeks...hopefully it'll come soon.

"They" do a crappy job of not emphasizing the importance of the IOE# for tracking. That being said, tracking is practically useless, the error stays till card production.

The only update is when the card is ready to be shipped. We got ours about 2 months after POE.
