yes you are right, they refused to give me appointment last time I called, just asked me to wait for response,  and now I got the response TO WAIT!! if i wait another 3 months, it will be 10 months after I entered US

I‘m in the same boat

I suspected something like that after about 90 days of waiting which is why I tried to submit everything asap

Right now I have to wait 90 more days because of further required research and once the 90 are over in july I‘ve been in the country for about 8 months

the first infopass I went to told me to come back but ever since then,I can‘t schedule an appointment and my IOE number doesn‘t work either. 

It‘s soooo frustrating :(

Well I'm at 308 days or 10months now.  🤣  Nothing new to report except I see a whole bunch of claimed asylum seekers entering the country in a quicker and cheaper fashion.  Perhaps we did it the wrong way...

EDIT:  Just checked my USCIS page and I spoke too soon!

Congratulations, CWiggin!! It's finally on it's way :) I know you've been waiting a really long time so it must be such a relief. All the best.

In all honesty I didn't even get excited.  Weird to say but a part of me feels like it's not real and that I will still have to go through more annoying trials with this.  (Which in a way will be true when I apply to remove conditions next year and then move on through the citizen process in the future)  My card is out for delivery today and ironically I'm out of country so I will have to enter through secondary one last time in a few weeks so my wife gets to accept the package today.  I think it'll feel good the first time I hold or use the card to cross the border so I'm looking forward to that.

Completely understandable.  A little story:  When Mrs. T-B. got her advance parole (on paper, years ago), I took her across a land port (Texas/Mexico).  The CBP agents knew what AP was but had never processed one.  They were racing around, often consulting one another, and at times it was almost comical.  When they were completing the process, I asked one if their computer showed whether Mrs. T-B.'s green card had been produced; he said that their computer didn't tell them such things.  Little did we know that her green card was in the mail to her at that moment.  I still have her once-used AP paper somewhere and may finally frame it, if it surfaces again.

 

Our situation being intensified by our proximity to the southern U.S. border, I will say that it gave us far more confidence to have her carry her green card everywhere (as is the law) in comparison with lesser documentation.  Here's a thread that might interest you and others:

Thanks guys, feels good now that the card has arrived.  309 days from POE for reference...pretty much 10 months.  I wonder if the USCIS finds this acceptable of their new CCD stored Visa Packets.

I sure hope not, because 309 days since entering the country should be completely unacceptable and considered a failure on their part. We are sitting at about 160 days right now and feel that we should've had the green card by now so it's understandable that you would be frustrated about it. Hopefully one day the TSC will wake up and figure out how to use the "Docs in CCD".  Best of luck to you and fingers crossed for everyone here who hasn't received their green card yet :)

Sincerely,
Ramsey

can anyone tell what information they fill out on i89 form ?

From what I could tell from the Infopass appointment, they need a few things:

- Passport/visa information

- 2 passport-style photos

- Current address

The officer we got was super nice and he submitted the I-89 form promptly, and was even able to download the files from CCD to include them in the form to the TSC.

Sincerely,
Ramsey

We‘re at 184 day since payment and 153 days since POE.

We filled out the online form of „Permanent resident card not received in mail“

I called multiple times but they always tell me to wait out the 90 days ( even though I already know that nothing will happen in those 90 days) 

so I made another infopass appointment for May 2nd and I just hope it will be figured out soon!
