Is it normal? 

Yes.

 

Can take up to 6 months or more to receive the card.

Yes it is. And there doesn’t seem to be a standard waiting timeline. Check the ‘OS115A Status’ thread  for reference.

Are you sure you paid the right fees the immigrant fee cannot be paid before hand because your a number comes on the new visa the immigrant fee is the a number on your visa that they printed in your passport and your case number if you paid the right fee you would of gotten an IOE number which you can then track on the uscis website and they should of issued an tracking  number from post office

My parents-in-law received their green card 5 weeks after their arrival, however, it can be longer. Waiting for a little bit longer and if you still not receive it, then contact them (it does not hurt to contact them even at this point but they can simply tell you to wait).

That’s not true. I guess it depends on your Embassy. 

The moment I’ve been approved the CO gave me a paper with instructions on how and where to pay Immigration fee. Paid it about an hour after approval and I still have to go pick up my passport. 

Receipt number starts with IOE indeed.
