Havn't received my kids' green card

It'll be a problem with their photos or biometrics I'd think, my daughter had the same thing. So frustrating that they don't contact you to tell you that and you have to wait the 90 days! But helpfully in a month or so's time you'll have an appointment for them to be redone, and once that happens the physical GC will only take a few weeks to arrive.

 

Good luck.  

Oh, I see. On the e-request that I filed, it says they will get back to me by June 20, which means it will take another 2-3 months!! It is frustrating.....

Yes, but it doesn’t really matter if you don’t get them until Sept or even later, it’s not like you need them for anything before then. It’s just a pain you have to spend time chasing them but as long as you get them before the beginning of 2025 that’s all good.

That is true, but we are planning a summer trip, and I would rather have it even though the visa on our passports is considered a GC for one year.

Exactly, so you don’t need the physical card. I travelled internationally several times before I got my card, it was no issue at all. They both serve the same purpose. 
 

The only downside is you can’t have an interview for Global Entry until you have a GC, but that’s not the end of the world and you can still apply for other programs.
