We‘re at 184 day since payment and 153 days since POE.

We filled out the online form of „Permanent resident card not received in mail“

I called multiple times but they always tell me to wait out the 90 days ( even though I already know that nothing will happen in those 90 days) 

so I made another infopass appointment for May 2nd and I just hope it will be figured out soon!

 

mrmvkjts, from my experience, the best way to go about reporting a lost packet is by filling out the I-89 at the infopass appointment. I would also tell the officer to check their CCD for the visa packet in order to forward it to the TSC. Best of luck, I hope your infopass appointment goes well. We are about 3 weeks past our infopass appointment and still haven't heard anything.

well we went for our infopass appointment.  at check in we said we are here to fill out lost visa packet form( i used the language that was mentioned in the letter we received from texas service center)

 

got called at the window, they kept 2 photos ,birth certificate copy and original passport that has visa on it, and told us to go sit again. 

2nd time they called us at the window and asked for state ID, gave it to them and they told us again sit down. i tried mentioning that visa packet is digital and should be in the ccd system . she looked at me what am i talking about, i didnt press it and went back and sat down again.

they called us 3rd time . gave us back the passport and told us you are all set. i did not even bother asking her how long will it take. she had some paperwork on her desk, i am assuming that was the lost packet form or i89 they call it internally. 

 

i hope this fixes the issue .

Everything was done at the window. The gentlemen filled out the form right in front of us.

I‘m in the same boat

I suspected something like that after about 90 days of waiting which is why I tried to submit everything asap

Right now I have to wait 90 more days because of further required research and once the 90 are over in july I‘ve been in the country for about 8 months

the first infopass I went to told me to come back but ever since then,I can‘t schedule an appointment and my IOE number doesn‘t work either. 

It‘s soooo frustrating

I can not schedule an appointment either,  my local office need phone call to book appointment they told me on the phone that my case is not urgent and I should wait for my request respond, now my respond asks to me wait.....Luckily, I got my ssn a week after entered US, I can do most with it ( driver license, bank, work）, but I agree with you it is frustrating to deal with the useless USCIS!! and I will need to deal with it again before two years marriage anniversary which will take over a year too!!!

Not sure if this will help anyone or not. So my wife was pivot and she did not receive any visa packet to carry it with her. her POE was JFK and according to her, the officer had no idea about this kind of situation as he was continuously asking her for the yellow envelope. Then she got transferred over to another officer and apparently took her 2hr to come out and she was just sitting there the whole time while they were figuring this out. She did not receive any Welcome letter or SSN within month and we had get one through office. 120 days also passed and no GC. So I started sending them email from USCIS account but I get same generic replies. Finally after 5-6 emails later some decided to call me and send an PDF said visa packet LOST at POE. So we decided to make an info pass appt. and lady at counter was super nice and patience as she gave me the 130 and 130a form to fill out but she said if you have copy in email you can email it me i will just print it out. Fortunately, I had that in my email. then she took 2 Passport size photo, BC, copy of passport. Then She put all together in packet and said will send to Texas. She also stamp her passport for 1 more year. 

we received the GC yesterday. Alhumdulliah, finally some breathing room.

little over a month.

So I went to my Infopass appointment on thursday and brought all the documents and paperwork I had

they scanned a couple of things and said that within 90 days I should get my greencard

Yesterday I checked my uscis case status and it already changed to „card is being produced“

fingers crossed that I will get the card fast and everything will be correct on it!

Some news on my side.

I did fill in an e-Request Non Delivery of Card. A service case/inquiry has been created and routed to the Texas Service Center.

It looks like there was an issue related to my immigration fee (paid in July 2018). The message that I received also mentioned that I should get some feedback within the 15 days. 

I'm in the same boat. What form option did you choose to file this? Thanks!
