Hi everybody,i am a spouse of US citizen i entered to the US on 17th august 2011, without any problem and handed away the packet brought from the embassy to the border agent, the border agent said that i would get my green card after i start working in the US but i don;t have anything that shows the address even if i find the work, except i have my passport and the stamp that i entered the US soil,

is it true that i have to wait till i get my green card? or what step should i take after entering the US, any suggestion will be valuable. Thanks for your support that made my journey so smooth, i am greatful to be member of this site.

Thank you in advance.

The stamp on the visa page of your passport acts as a temporary greencard valid for one year. It allows you to travel, work etc. Your physical greencard should arrive within 3 months- most likely sooner- at the US address you gave in your paperwork.
