Green card production after ELIS

[yuanmanzhong 0]

Finally, my stupid Green Card is being produced.

Card Is Being Produced

On March 4, 2015, we began producing your new card for your Form OS155A, Immigrant Visa and Alien Registration, Receipt Number IOE**********. We will mail your card to the address you gave us. If you move, go towww.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

Hello Ketsuban, How long it took you to get the Green Card after Card being Produced? Mine was produced on July 24th, but till today (August 14), it is still the same statue (card being produced). Thank you for your help!

Does anyone know how many letters USCIS allows for a first name? I've got a double first name (Imagine Anna Sophia) that is not hyphenated and a middle name (imagine Leah) as well as my surname. My PR card arrived and says, in this example Anna S. I called USCIS to see whether it is meant to say this or what the letter limit is on my PR card to try and figure out if it is correct for someone with a double first name or what is supposed to happen now and they literally cannot even confirm whether or not they can have more than five letters for a given name. So my options are a) keep it as-is despite my misgivings, b) make an infopass appointment and miss a day off work or c) fill out all the forms for a replacement PR card only to be told, potentially, that my card is correct and/or that I have to pay all this money because my mother didn't hyphenate my first name so my first name counts as two names unless I fight them.

Can anyone help me out with this? I didn't expect them to put Anna Sophia Leah, since my visa appeared with Anna Sophia Le, but I was expecting my card to say Anna Sophia, not Anna S, you know?

that sounds wrong to me. I'd get them to at least fix your first name. Do an I-90!

And she shouldn't have to pay for the I-90 because it's their mistake...is that correct?

Yeah I know I have to be patient, it's just that the waiting can be quite maddening at times (especially with the variations in the wait time from production to shipping)

It's finally here!!! My GC was mailed on the 11th and was delivered today. Man what a crazy ride this entire DV process was and I don't regret anything and thanks to everyone on this forum that helped in getting me to this point.

To everyone else good luck with your green cards and take care....

How do I check green card status on USCIS website?

So far I'm only checking the status in Elis website.

Thanks for the help...

Same place you checked the petition. Use the IOE number. However dont bother until ELIS says the case is closed. Only then it will give yiu a tracking number for a green card.

After waiting for 6 weeks for my husbands green card, it finally arrived today. Unfortunately, we received the 2 year conditional one instead of the IR-1 card, when we have been married for 3 years now. I'm so mad right now. So do I have to send the green card with I-190 form or not. Ugh and I know this is gonna mean more waiting.

[NikLR 13,220]

yes you sent the card back with an I-90.

also if possible please finish filling out your timeline.

Hello -

Sorry about your husband status on GC... You have to wait more time to get the update one....

One question had he stamped IR1 category on his passport when POE??

Because for me it may be happened. I have been waiting for the GC right now and it may come with wrong status as CR1.

I have been stamped as IR1 on my passport when POE but I had been applied as CR1 category when visa submitted.

I'm so worried until receiving a GC.

Thank you.

Oh ok thanks!

And I plan to update my timeline, but our visa process got messy towards the end.

Hopefully you get the right one. I Think since they stamped it IR1 at the POE then you're good. I honestly didn't pay attention to it at that time. Didn't think something like this would happen. Oh wells it is what it is. Good luck to you!

We had the same problem. Got cr1 card instead of IR1. I sent it back with i90 and they scheduled my biometrics appointment 3 weeks after. Let me know if you have any questions.

Keep you posted.

I had cr1 visa too but entered as ir1 received wrong card with cr1 and sent it back couple weeks ago. At least it's free to file.

Have you been issued IR1 sealed on your passport by embassy/consular when got interviewed ??

and stamped as IR1 when at POE?

Thanks for your advice.
