No Green Card After Approval Letter

[seawind12 0]

My daughter and I got our approval letter for the I-751 on May 13, 2009. I filed the I-751 with her as my dependent. I got my 10-year-GC last June 29 but my daughter never got hers. I have called the USCIS customer service twice, the last one on July 15. I was given a service request number, and was told to wait for 45 days which is the end of August. I was told to expect an update from the mail or online (CRIS). There was no mail and no online update.

What should I do? Should I go to the local office? My daughter needs her GC because she is applying for college in schools here in Atlanta.... and she needs to get a driver's license too. She is also looking for work. I know that she can use her Approval Letter but still, I think she has to have her greencard by now.

Please, any advice will be appreciated. Thank you.

Sounds like your GC got lost in the mail (this happened to my SIL) Make and Infopass appointment and ask them to print out a new one.

what were you told was the reason hers wasn't sent? call them back and state the urgency of the matter!

I would suggest an infopass appointment. Explain to them what's going on. Just maybe they will stamp her passport with an I-551 stamp. Good luck.

Thanks, Zen, Rabia and Meriem.

I called USCIS this morning and the customer service couldnt give me a reason for the delay as they are still looking on the matter.

I was told to call again by the end of August. About the I-551 stamp, i asked about that and according to the agent, that is only for travelling out of the US.... ???

I was assured last month that I would get an update from the mail.... and they said the same thing again today!

Dont rely on what Customer Service Agents tell you. They dont even know how to do their jobs. I just came from Atlanta this afternoon where my son and I had to get our passports stamped as our GC's have been lost for three months.

Make a Info Pass for Atlanta and tell them what has happened and they will stamp her passport good for a year until her card gets delivered to her. This way she can get her lisense and show it to employer's that she is still legal.

We had a similiar problem with my stepdaughter.

I contacted my senator and his immigration specialist squared everything away in a few days.
