Hi all. My husband and I completed the immigration process for our case and I crossed the border the day after our 2 year wedding anniversary. April 13th. But, when I try log onto our USCIS account it says "Sent to Department of State" and then "case closed". So, how are we supposed to see when the GC has been sent out? We have no idea. Is there another place we can go to? I'm not even sure they caught the CR-1 to IR-1 change....Any insight would be most appreciated.

Use the receipt number for the payment of the Green Card (immigrant fee ) paid to USCIS after the visa was issued.

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..

That is done at USCIS.  You won't know until you look at the Green Card itself.

Thank you! I didn't even notice that the bottom of the receipt was a different receipt number. I was going crazy lol. And thank you for taking the time to respond :)
