the topic may sound like a silly question. i was curious last night and hadnt checked online for a few months, so i decided to, then our net went down so i went to bed

i logged on this morning and in my email i had an update from CRIS, butit left me confused

it noted

_______
Application Type: CRI89, PETITION TO REMOVE CONDITIONS OF PERMANENT RESIDENT STATUS RECEIVED
Current Status: Card production ordered.

On March 18, 2008, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you. If we need something from you we will contact you.

only reason im confused is because with all other case status info ive gotten it has said something to the effect of "case status approved" then again with all my other applications, the site never updated properly,or at all.... i usually got things in the mail before i got any email if i got one. im just wondering if this is a very delayed temporary 1 year card to replace the "we've received your application" notice we got back in december

anyhow if any of you got a case status up date like this or simliar to this, please feel free to let me know if this was indeed an approval or a temp card. WO interview.

im sure the card will appear in the mail in the next couple of days and that can confirm if for me, but im still curious!
thanks!

It sounds like you have definitely been approved, and your 10-yr GC should be on it's way to you.

Congrats and best wishes.

Mine was exactly like that and I was confused as hell. In fact I got four of them over two days for my application for the Green Card.

Must be their new way of doing it for Green Card applications and lifting restrictions.

Basically all approved and on its way.

thanks to both of you and /wave to my fellow dayton neighbor leahjane!

ill confirm when i get my mail. heh i sorta wanted an interview so brian would know that all of my whining and hounding to get the papers and photocopies and notaries right mattered.... all of my packets through all phases were JAMMED packed of info they requested. was actually very worried witht he last official one since i didnt include any tax info and nearly all of our bank accounts are soley in brians name... as are all the bills. i just turned in as much info that had my name included as i could.

i guess i should just shut up and be thankful, i had it a hell of alot easier than most on VJ -- from K1 through 10 year processing. All of my one (the montreal k1) 'interviews' consisted of "sign here" my responses were 'sure' and 'can i have your cheese string?' (best montreal interviewing officer ever btw)

if this is the end of the line for myself until citizenship, i wish everyone the best of luck and hope they have smooth times ahead.

Congratulations

Yes ,I got the same e-mail ,three of them .Your wait is over !

I got the e-mail 3 times too Congratulations on your approval NatalieC
