The green card can take a good while to show up. I entered using my IV on Aug 9th 2021, and I didn't get my GC until Dec 24th. After 90 days you can raise SR's with USCIS which will help move things along. The final SR that got things going was when I noted "Lost visa packet? Check CCD" on the new SR.

My wife and stepdaughter arrived about 2 weeks before yours and they still haven't received their green cards.  I know of one other member here who arrived within a few days of that timeframe and haven't received a green card yet too.  So it seems probable they are all experiencing similar wait times.  My wife and stepdaughter got their SS Cards in a week and my wife has been working for a month and a half already on her endorsed visa and got her CA drivers license so it's a non-issue.  It says "within 90 days" on the status check so we will call in a few weeks if they still haven't come but we are not worried and it seems 120 days or more is not unheard of.  But yea,,,, it would be nice to actually have the shiny new cards we worked so hard to get😁  Also we travel a few places around here where it is normal to encounter a Border Patrol checkpoint from time to time and while it's not a problem,  it's annoying they always have to carry their passports.

 

Since our timeframes are similar and we are in the same boat, I'll update whenever we receive or find out anything.

 

Also, just to verify, you did pay the immigrant fee, right?

Thank you so much, this makes me feel much better. I was just concerned since I moved after I filed for my Wife. And also yes please update me. I did pay 220$ immigrant fee after her interview was approved.

Will do if it passes more than 90 days.

As a matter of fact, according to USPS Informed Delivery they are sitting in my mail box right now.   I'll go home and check the mail at lunch time.  That would be exactly 114 Days.  2 weeks ago on the 90th day I made an online inquiry.  The status changed to cards being produced a week after I made an online inquiry but I don't know if the inquiry had anything to do with it.  I suspect that was just how long the backlog was.  They haven't responded to the inquiry.

Thank you for your reply. Did you put 'Non-Delivery of Card' on e-request https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/displayNDCForm.do?sroPageType=ndc&entryPoint=init

Did you put I-130 receipt number? I'm getting this error after I click on Submit? Or do I need to put my information since I filed I-130 for my wife?

No.  The receipt number is the one they e-mailed when you paid the $220 Immigrant fee.  That is also the receipt number you need to check the status on https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/
