Now that the fee has been paid, what is a realistic time-frame that the physical green card will come in mail?

 

As above, up to 90 days but most get it after about 6 weeks. You can track them now using the payment receipt number.

You need to check your status online using the receipt number from the fee, that’ll tell you when the card is being produced. But it can take up to 90 days so you’re still well within that timeframe.

It’s whichever is the latest date, so in your case 71 days. But what does the online status say?

OK, hopefully won’t be too much longer until it changes to card being produced. If it gets to 90 days then you just file to report it as not received, and it’s usually something simple (that happened to my daughter, she had to have her photo redone and then it was produced). 

 

Good luck.

It didn’t turn up after 90 days so we submitted the form to say it hadn’t been received. They then mailed a notice to say she needed to have the photo done again.
