ROC filed 8/2017, still no GC

[Kim and Jermaine 28]

My husband filed his I-751 in August 2017 and he was finally approved in March 2020. Well, as you know Covid-19 happened and he never got a green card. We inquired twice about the production of his GC and got generic email responses both times. We were about to make info pass appt #3 (he had to do 2 info pass appointments to get a stamp in passport because of expired extension letter) but on August 27 his status in the system changed to "Fingerprints uploaded" so we were happy that it seemed they were getting ready to produce the GC. But then, a couple weeks later, it updated to "your case was approved and your approval notice will be mailed". We are in possession of both approval notices with different  approval dates. So we made several phone calls which amounted to over 15 hours on hold to finally speak with a Tier 2 Agent. He says that his system doesnt show the earlier approval, but the previous 2 lower tier agents both confirmed the conflicting info. I persisted and he hesitantly acknowledged conflicting info and said he would push for the GC to be produced. A day or 2 later, the system updated to "your case was transferred". Its been over a week since and we are still waiting on the letter to explain the transfer.

We are wondering if we should just patiently let the process happen on its own, or should we make an info pass appointment to attempt to gain more insight? The info pass appointment location is 3 hours away and we aren't sure missing work for this would benefit us.

The most concerning thing is we are about to close on a new home and the lender has already voiced concern over no physical GC. Yes we realize they still are required to accept his stamp and approval letter but we have already gone through one lawsuit with another lender because of this. We really want this to be over and wonder if there is more reason for concern over the delay.

Congratulations, that is a lengthy wait for the physical GC itself.
