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. 

Can you please send me the link of inquiry that you sent then and how long it took you to redo photo 

Thank your time

You can’t send it until you’ve passed 90 days. But if you reach that point without the status changing then it’s here - https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/ndc Photo appointment was about 4 weeks, card was then in production the next day so maybe 6 weeks overall.

 

Just checking, but you are aware that your endorsed visa acts as your green card for the first year? So there’s no urgency for the physical card?

If the stamped visa on the passport does act as your greencard for 1 year, then what is the expiration of that visa stamp?

 

Is it the same as "Expires On" date noted but the year is just extended out?  So for example, if the current date on the visa stamp shows, Feb. 28 2025, then that visa stamp is valid for another year Feb. 28 2026?

 

Thanks.

It’s a year from the date of endorsement i.e. the date you enter the US on it.

Yeah on my visa says that serves temporary residents for one year. 

I heard that if your card doesn't come in 90 days then there's e request tools inquiry which is case is outside of processing time but you did non delivery of card which is i think same..

Yep, that’s the same thing.

Our 3 greencards took over 170 days.  I sent an inquiry after 90 days.  Don't stress and sign up for USPS Informed Delivery so you can track it once you get notification it's been issued.  You can check your MyUSCIS account to see the status of the card.

Which state were you landed and got your green card

The state doesn’t make a difference, as it’s processed by USCIS, not locally. They’re all sent from the same place (in Missouri, IIRC).
