Green Card trouble

Recommended Posts

My husband had his interview September 29, 2014. It was approved and the visa was handed to him on Oct 2nd. October 7th I paid the $165. We flew in together January 6th and up until this day we have no received the green card in the mail. My husband called USCIS and per the agent on the phone they told him I never paid. Hubby told told the agent yes I did and gave the agent the IOE #. The agent apologized and told him he would receive a letter in the mail on April 20th letting him know when he will receive the green. It is April 22nd and still nothing.

It is getting a little stressful because he needs that to work and a few jobs has called him to work and without that they cant hire him and we are expecting a baby and need as much help as I can get from him.

What does your online status say?

You may need to call back or even better, make an info pass appointment.

hi

that's what the stamp in the passport is for, it is valid for 1 year, he can work with that in the meantime,

of course he should not wait too long, as said maybe an infopass appointment

If you have a CR1 visa then he is good to work for 1 year the admitted stamp it self a guarantee for 1 year temporarily green card, so relax and don't worry and check his passport stamp and what visa says on REMARKS section..

Good Luck

This is a very long time foe the hard copy green card. What does his ELIS account say?

And as already noted, his endorsed visa IS a green card. He can work.

On Elis it still says Optimized I think......I already made the info pass appointment for next week. All the jobs told him that the passport visa is not valid...

They are breaking the law.

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

So hubby called USCIS AGAIN and they said it is definitely an error on their part and putting an urgent request on the card. They have mentioned last month and not believing anything they are saying. I am keeping my infopass appointment next week and walking in. They said it could be because of fingerprints or the picture they dont know why but they put his case as an urgent request. BULL

How are they breaking law? I dont understand......I did look at the visa on the passport and it was only valid until March 2015 it wasnt a year so I dont know that part. All I know is that hubby needs his green card and we waited long enough.
