Tracking Green Card

[OKflyboy 35]

Does anybody know how to track the GC production now? ELIS sends you to USCIS Case Status, but the only thing that does is show the year-old info when the case was sent to NVC, if you track by USCIS case number.

I paid the ELIS fee on August 18 and my father entered the US on September 3. Still no GC. I know it's not out of the 45 day time frame yet, but it certainly would be nice to be able to know what's going on.

What receipt# did you enter to check your status at USCIS? It sounds like you entered the old ie i 130 receipt number. you need to enter the receipt number provided in the ELIS account. My father also entered on 3rd Sep. and his status at USCIS initially showed that card is being produced and now it shows that card is mailed, it is not yet received though. Case status at ELIS account remained stuck at "optimized" but now it is "closed".

I don't think I have a number provided by ELIS. I have the receipt number for the fee payment, but that is from pay.gov.

I paid the fee and did not go back to the ELIS page until the first week of September, and that's when it said I could not log in into my account anymore. So I can't get into the account and I do not have the number. How did you get the number?

Now the procedure is changed after 31 Aug and ELIS accounts are no more required.I paid fee on 22nd of Aug ie later than you but can still log in. Payment receipt# is available in case summary.

Did you try to check status by entering payment receipt number?

It says that if the fee was paid before Aug. 31, you can no longer access the account. So no, I cannot log in into my account. It sends me straight to USCIS main page.

The only payment receipt number I have is from pay.gov. It does not work on USCIS site.

Strange. I can still log in my ELIS account. May be because I have been logging in frequently after paying the fee to check the case status.

Maybe. There was no point for me to check before my dad actually entered the country, since they do not start the production until then anyway.
