IR-1 here, spouse is from Colombia

POE: 10/10/21 (Atlanta) where we were told her SSN would arrive within 2 weeks and the Green Card within 90 days. No SSN after 2 weeks, so we went to the Social Security office (they advised they had zero info about my wife's case). Thankfully, they were able to get that sorted and we received her SSN about 2 weeks after that. Green Card was paid for on 08/30/21 (before POE). Today we received notification that the Green Card is finally being produced (01/06/22, day 85 of 90)

Mom's timeline:

 

Fee paid: 09/11/2021

Entry: 10/17/2021

SSN arrived about a week after entry

Still waiting for GC (case status is still "fee received") ☹️

 

When the status changes to "card being produced", does the system still send an e-mail or text notification?

Card in production: 01/06/2022 (82 days since entry; did not receive an e-mail or text notification)

Card received in the mail: 01/13/2022 (this was priority mail with a tracking number, but we of course didn't know the number - seems for USCIS use)

 

Fingers crossed for all those still waiting!

We are getting close to 90 days as well. Have you already received any welcome letter? We haven’t. I’m not sure if there is a mailed welcome letter before receiving the GC.

No welcome letter. But I don't remember receiving one before my wife received her GC back in 2015 either.

As of 1/24/22, we're waiting on arrival of GC for both my parents. Situation is as follows:

 

POE: 7/15/21 Newark NJ

USCIS Immigrant Fee paid: 6/24/21

No update on USCIS case number since then

Waiting for GC to arrive.

 

Any advice how to follow up? This is now 7 months since entry and longer since USCIS Immigrant Fee was paid.
