This is normal.  If she received her SS card, she will receive her Green card.....You have to be patient.  It can take 90 days.

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..

Since she has a stamped immigration visa that serves as a temporary I-551, she doesn’t need a green card for another 315 days. USCIS knows that so she is low priority.
 

Sign up for USPS Informed Delivery so that you get notice ahead of time that the green card is enroute.  On the day  it is due, set your camp, literally next to your mail box and wait for the carrier all day.  If the carrier comes and goes  without delivering the green card chase after the carrier.  A misdelivered green card is like a missing child. The first 24 hours matter the most.

Enter the IOE# of the immigrant fee receipt here -- https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do

 

If after 90 days, the GC still hasn't arrived and the case status still says something like "Immigrant Fee Received", you may file a USCIS ticket for non-delivery of card here -- https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/displayNDCForm.do?sroPageType=ndc&entryPoint=init

We paid the immigrant fee before my husband entered the U.S. Per USCIS, green card should be delivered within 90 days, no green card. We waited 120 days, no green card. Submitted a USCIS inquiry and should have gotten an answer by 5/12/22, no answer to the inquiry. Sent an email that green card has not been received and that there was no answer to the inquiry either. USCIS responded that they got the inquiry, but need more time to research it and said if we don’t receive the green card within another 90 days to contact them again?! If the GCs are taking longer, they could post on their website that some GCs are taking longer than 120 days and they’d save themselves phone calls, people submitting inquiries, people submitting emails, people talking to reps on the live chat…. as we struggle to figure out what’s going on.

Same.  My GC arrived after more than 120 days and only after I filed 2 USCIS tickets.  I got a response for the first one only and it was that USCIS needed more time 🙄
