AND you wouldn't have an I-94 record; permanent residents do not have I-94 records.

Exactly.  Sadly, the existence of an I-94 eliminates all doubt, imo.  and now the visa has long expired.

I just got off phone with officer at USCIS and they said there is no issue with not getting the stamp other than I have no temporary evidence and that the delay in my receiving the green card was related to a problem with some "biometric" (whatever that is) and that the card had to be remade and was sent back and is listed as being "in production". And she said she could see no problem in front of her that would have me not receive it.  I mean "in production" sounds optimistic no?

You didn't speak to an officer at USCIS, you spoke to a call centre agent with next to no immigration knowledge. Did you tell them that your I-94 says you have NEVER been admitted as a permanent resident?

 

And if you check your status for the GC, what does it say? It would say 'in production' online if that is in fact the case.

Thank-you. My next conversation will be at airport customs on Friday where I will ask these questions. I will get there early in case they have any issues with my questions.

What does the online status for your GC say?

 

You just need to confirm they're admitting you as a LPR, not as a visitor. And then see what they say - do keep us posted.

Green card! Does it say it's 'in production' as you've been told?

No need to shout. The same place you were told about many pages ago - https://egov.uscis.gov

 

Put the receipt number in there from when you paid the fee back in February, what does that say?

Curiouser and curiouser. Did you look at your travel history on the I-94, is there a trip you made that isn't on there?

all my trips into the us are there

Given this status update, do I even need to speak to the customs officer on Friday or should I just let sleeping dogs lie?

Legal residents do not have an I-94 history.
