Interview is done! Case not updated online

[Sarah200 2]

Hello Everyone,

 

I just had my interview 2 days ago for green card based marriage( I 485 adjustment of status). The officer approved the application but my case is not updating online. How can I get some information? Did anyone experience something similar? Please help.

Except for those who got an I-551 stamp at the interview, or saw the status change to “card in production” by the time they got home from the interview (not my wife), everyone (including my wife) goes through the same thing you are going through. 
 

It is likely  you will have a green card in hand 30 days from now.  
 

Some cases take longer.  I read a case today that had an interview in 2015.  Then another interview in December 2021. And today “card in production.”

 

Check once a day.

Thank you for your response! I mean I thought I would be done after the interview but I guess not! This wait is horrible! Did your wife got her GC yet? I know people that received the notification the same day as you said! Not sure why!

Some IOs care more than others about the emotional damage waiting does to beneficiaries. At the very same office on the very same day, other marriage based I-485 interviews had a status of approved the same day.  Based on descriptions I am 100 percent certain they had a different IO.  
 

Ironically the “resident since date” on her green card was the date of the interview.  Which means that the IO actually approved it the day of the interview and out of vindictiveness waited 10 days to get it approved and put the card in production.  
 

Hang in there.

Card could have been sent.  
 

Technically you should see:

 

card was ordered. 
 

card is in production 

 

card was produced 

 

card was sent 

 

card was delivered 

 

However it is possible you can will receive a card without any of those status updates.  
 

Expect the card in 3-14 days.

Thank you for your explanation.I noticed an approval notice was sent today under notices on my account, so I was abit confused if GC was attached to it. I will keep checking to see if it changes.
