Hi. Assuming that everything goes well on the final interview and I am approved, is it true that they will stamp my passport with a temporary 30 day stamp (green card) until the physical card arrives in the mail? Also, how long does it take to arrive in the mail? Thanks

::time:: and your profile please.

Which interview are you refering to? You posted this in the K1 forum, but that only leads to a visa, not a greencard. Did you come to the USA on a K1 perhaps, got married and are now going through Adjustment of Status?

Sorry if I was not clear. I came to the US with the K1 visa and got married. Soon I will have my Adjustment of Status interview. That is the one I am asking about:

- How long after the interview do I get the Green Card on the mail? (if the interview goes well)

- Do they stamp a "temporary green card" (I don't have the name of that stamp) for the person to be able to leave the country (actually return to the US after leaving) during the next 30 days?

Thanks

It's hard to predict when you'll get the card after interview if you were approved. Some wait longer and others don't. After my interview, the officer was very quick in doing his thing there and within 30 minutes my card was put into production, then the status online changed to approved and I received it within a week. But there were no holidays close to my interview, right now I believe it may take longer

Unless you ask and have proof of needing one, I don't think they just give away the stamp. It was never mentioned on my interview

Thank you very much!
