It’s separate from the immigration fee. Let me get the letter from my sister and tell you more. Because this was all new to us. I will write back later today. 

Thank you so much!

Hey everybody. 

My husband got CR-1 visa approval in August 2018. We paid the visa fee on September 12th, and entered the US on October 25th 2018. It has now been well over 120 days, and still no sign of his green card. He got his SSN shortly after arriving. He has the I-551 in his passport with 1 year endorsement, but his work is still badgering him for his actual green card. I have called, put in requests, and contacted the Ombudsman but we are still waiting for a response. I put in my request with the USCIS weeks ago and was told I'd hear a response on March 21st 2019 , but heard nothing. Even though he has been approved, and has the I-551 in his passport, I am still worried something is wrong. Any advice? Has anyone gone through anything similar? Thanks in advance for your help. 

Hi there. Just curious if you had any updates. We paid January 2019 and my husband entered Feb 1 2019. We've sent several inquiries, contacted the ombudsman, and nothing. To make things worse we can't make an infopass appointment online for our local office and they have been evasive about giving us an appointment over the phone, saying that the stamp is sufficient. My husband is about to travel internationally for the first time since entry, and we are very worried about him re-entering. I know he shouldn't have a problem in theory, but I have heard of people having problems. USCIS seems to be less and less responsive every time we call. Anyway, hoping you've made some progress on your end!!

Hi! I completely understand your frustration. Luckily, as of 3 days ago, we finally got the green card. It turned out that my husband's visa packet had been lost. Of course, the USCIS never gave us this info. The way we were able to find out was by contacting our Senator, and his office sent a inquiry to the USCIS on our behalf. They were able to figure out that the visa packet was lost, and once we had that information we were able to make an infopass appointment. At the appointment they filed a Lost Visa Packet form for us and a little less than a month later, we got the card. Neither the ombudsman nor direct contact with the USCIS did anything for us which is so frustrating. My advice is to contact your senator.  I am positive we never would have had any success or even gotten any information if my senator had never gotten involved. If you have any more questions at all, feel free to message me! I'd love to help. And good luck!!!

Research your U.S. Senators; go to one's website or call the office; request a release form so that they can assist with your issue; return the form; wait.
