Hello!

My check is being processed today! VSC received my package on 1/17.

Let's get moving! 

Hello again (almost 2y later)!

I sent my package to Vermont center on 1/14/16, it was received on 1/17/17. As of 1/19 check has not been cashed.

Please add me to the list.

Thank you!

Hello! Glad to "see" familiar users after almost 2 years. I hope you are all doing great with your family...

I am getting ready to mail in my package next week and I am curious what did you put in your package besides the form ... like friends affidavit's, copy of bills, photos (how many) etc. 

I would appreciate if someone will share. Thank you! Let's hope for a smooth & short wait till we get PGC.

Though I am a red blooded American, my ancestry is 100% Romanian. This Romanian congratulates you...Concentrate on the baby bump...He or she will also be a red blooded American as well...Best of luck...

WOW! That's awesome to hear wish you all the best!

Hello, everyone! I have received my Green card today. I am finally relieved that I have it in my hands.

I want to thank each and every one of you for sharing your story, your problems, you questions and your answers. I will try to step away from this forum for a while, even I know will be difficult because it became a routine, as checking my email. I consider you all my friends... but now I should start focusing more on my pregnancy that reading immigration forums.

I wish you all very quick approvals, happy live next to your beloved spouse!

We will be sharing a forum in about 21 months for ROC.

Green card was picked up today from Corbin, KY And begun it's journey to New Jersey. Estimated delivery date for Thursday, 23rd... you know I will stock my mailman Thursday morning!

question: after you get notification that the card was sent, usually the next day you get the tracking # ?last week when they sent me the new EAD i didn't got a tracking update... but with the green card i definitely want to know when i will get it

I received the Welcome to America letter today. Mine came from Lee Summit, it that where they all come from.

The week before my approval, I called USCIS and they told me my case was still in the Lee "prison"Summit. I wonder if my case ever left from there? Is there a way to find out? Not that I am that curious anyway...I've been approved, just waiting for them to mail my card. Maybe because they are so backed up, they can approve them at NBC...

Hello everybody again

I have tried to check my eligibility to work in the United State on the dhl website. This call E-verify and will use to identify if we are allowed to work here.

https://selfcheck.uscis.gov/SelfCheckUI/

Before I get GC, it worked and I am eligible to work in USA. But now, after I filled in my info. It said that my info is not in US gov database. I'm so surprised and panic what happen with me.

If you guys don't mind, could you try this? just wondering if they forgot to register me as permanent resident as I did not receive that kind of update for my GC.

Thanks

You should give them a few days for your status to "clear" ... I had the same problem when i went to get my SSN with my married name after i received the EAD...

I know, is weird...even though they are the ones who issue the document, it is not "in the system" yet.

GOOOD MORNING!!!

Yes, I wrote with green because I woke up with a green text message: at 8:01 am EST I received a text about AOS: new card is being produced - April 14th.

1 week short to 1 year AOS anniversary.

Hang in there, peeps, this is our week!!!

Congratulations to all of you who got approved today!

I know another person who sent papers on 4/23/14, NPIW 7/29, approved last week on 4/9

I am still waiting... I am losing my patience!!!! Might be my pregnancy causing this too

My EAD card has been sent to production today. Dear USCIS, that is not the right card that should be sent to production at this time!!!!

I had my biometrics renewal on March 2nd. Tier2's SR is still not assigned to an officer...since Mar 24th. I also contacted Ombudsman on Mar 16.

Congrats, Val!!!

Congratulations everyone!!!

The SR Tier 2 put in for me on March 24th is still unassigned to an officer, inquiry to ombudsman on March 16th still no answer, my EAD renewal says "my case was received" on Feb 17, did the biometrics on Mar 2.... What the heck USCIS, you forgot about me or simply just ignore me???

I sent my inquiry to the ombudsman on Mar 16...still no answer back

Congrats to the Approved ones for today. I will be checking on you guys on Monday, taking the weekend off...

Is our 1st wedding anniversary on Sunday and we are going on a weekend getaway. Hopefully next week we will have more approvals being that will be APRIL.

Green hugs to everyone!

I am finally getting back to tell you guys what I talked with Tier 2 today. First, the 69 minutes end up being 130 minutes actually (I guess USCIS just likes to give half of the time that they will be giving you an answer on anything... phone call, approval etc). The officer said he had no access to my file so he just asked me to give him the receipt number and other verification questions. then he put me on hold of 2 minutes, came back and said he can't see any specific reason why my case is not moving and he suggested to do a SR to find out why is still in Lee Summit.

I mentioned that about the forum and there are a lot of people that filled after me and they were approved already, some within 2-3 months from filling. He said that is not accurate information because each case is different by 100% and can't compare them. (such BS).

So now I am just waiting for a for a new SR response. My case online has this assigned: "As of March 24, 2015, your general inquiry, referral number WKDxxxxxxxxxxMSC, is currently not assigned for processing."

Good luck, although unfortunately I doubt you will get past tier 1 and they probably wont know much other than the script they are given and told to use when we ring up asking why there is a delay!

Shell, tier 1 was surprisingly easy... she was just going with the script with zip code, oh yes you are outside processing times blah blah blah...you want me to make a new SR? I said no, I would like to speak with a Tier 2... she said ok and put me through.... i was surprised too.

The automated call said 69 minutes wait for the call back.... i am waiting for 85 already.

I was thinking about calling them and telling them about this site and how we know who and who does not get approved. See what they have to say about people getting approvals shortly of receiving the NPIW and approvals jumping all over the place.

I will and I will let you know what he/she told me...

I called USCIS right now, just because I am so sick of waiting. Last week i submitted an inquiry to the ombudsman ...

Tier 1 offered to file another SR for me, but I said no, I want to speak with Tier 2. She said OK, connected me to that...now I am waiting for the call back... estimated waiting time 69 minutes.

I know Tier 2 is not too helpful, but I just to get done with this thing...

Come on USCIS, press those GREEN buttons!!!

Good morning, everyone! A new week, new hopes...

Let's hope we will see a lot of approvals this week, now that spring is in the air, maybe USCIS will be a little more motivated to work... especially for those like me that are waiting for 11+ months!
