I am having the same issues. I been here almost 2 months exactly and still haven't received the social security nor green card. I went to the social security office and they stated that it could be an issue with the length of my name as to why the process for the social is taking so long. I am unable to work because I don't have the social nor green card yet. I've called to check on the green card and it stated that I should give about 120 days and if I do not receive it by then to call back.

From my experience I can say it's taking over 2 months for the greencard to arrive. But I went to ssn office and applied for my social. And the Stamp in your passport is a temporary greencard for one year.so u do have a gc
