Hi there

On feb 27 I recieve an email saying that on feb 26 they mailed mailed a notice of approval. I haven't received it. I have receive my Green Card but not the notice. I haven't moved, so they haven't sent it to the wrong address. Has anyone else had this problem? Should I be worried?

Thanks

Congratulations. If you have received the green card alright I wouldn't worry too much about the notice of approval. I don't think you require it for anything else (at least, that I am aware of) and it is the green card itself that is important.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

Agree with Kathryn41. The green card is more important. And believe it or not, the card production place is not in the same place where the IO approve your case (VSC), so it's possible for the card to come before the approval letter. I think it might still come, just not on time because my RD was 1/30/09, the evelope was stamped on 2/3/09, meaning they took 4 days to actually send out that letter.

Uh HELLO! The notice of approval IS the letter with the green card in it! Isn't it? (People with experience please comment!)

When we got the Conditional 2-year green card, the "Welcome" notice was the one welcoming hubby to the USA (after the green card was approved); then we got an email saying the "Approval" notice was in the mail. Turns out the approval notice means the green card-enclosed notice. I suspect it's the same thing with ROC!

Congrats! :thumbs:
