They came on a CR-1 visa. They have permanent residence on arrival. They will get their passport stamped to show permanent residence on the day they arrive and the actual card follows about 30 days later.

It was actually just a temp job for a month. At least he finally got paid after 1.5 months working with no SSN!!! Right now he is a house husband as we are having our big religious wedding in 2 weeks. He has enough "chores" from me during the day to keep busy though! :whistle:

It used to be green - long, long ago. The design changed several times - in the '90 "green card" was pink. Now it looks like a fake ID ;)

Anyway, congratulations! :)
