@HoneyBadger26 did your husband receive his physical green card in the mail yet? The status on mine hasn’t changed since I paid the immigrant fee a month ago, I’m starting to think something is wrong with mine.
-
Maybe that congressional inquiry will get things moving again. Even though the expedite request was denied it might have triggered someone to look at your case and get it some attention. Fingers crossed for you!
-
I don’t have any good advice for you, but I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It’s awful not knowing what’s going on. Is your whole family currently in Canada or is your spouse in the US and the rest of you are in Canada waiting?

We have an access code for the I 130 we filed but that status hasn’t changed since it was first sent to the NVC. I got a second receipt number when I paid my immigrant fee and I never received any NOA document with that one and when I requested an online access code for it they told me it wasn’t a valid receipt number. So I’m pretty confused about how to track the production of the green card.
-
Yay!!!
-
Thank you for the info! I am unable to add my case to my USCIS account. I tried using the receipt number for when I paid the fee to get an access code and they told me it wasn’t a valid receipt number. Then I tried again using the original I 130 receipt number and they denied me saying they couldn’t prove I was the applicant. So I can only use the public USCIS case status thing. I’m really confused about how to track the progress of getting the green card.
-
I forgot to add, since his SSN card was issued I think there is a way he can look it up online and get the number. If he gives the employer his SSN number and his green card (or that temporary stamp in his passport) that should work for employment. I’m pretty sure permanent residents don’t get I94s so he will never have one.
-
I thought when you enter as a permanent resident you no longer get an I94? I checked my I94 and it only shows the last entry I did as a tourist on a B2 ages ago. Has your husband received his physical green card yet? I don’t know how to track the status of mine, the last update I got is from the receipt number from when I paid the immigrant fee and it just says your fee has been paid and your card will be produced. I don’t know if that status will change when it’s mailed or what. It’s only been two weeks since I crossed so I’m not worried yet.
-
This is exactly how mine looked and it was accepted.
-
Ok thank you! I did sign up for account but it’s asking me to request an online access code to add my case. I will use the payment receipt to keep tracking we already have USPS informed delivery. Thank you so much!
-
Which receipt number do I use to track the status of getting the physical green card? We have a receipt number from when we originally filed the I 130 and then I got a different receipt number from when I paid my immigrant fee. Not sure which one to use. The I130 one just shows a status of case sent to NVC and the fee one just shows immigrant fee paid.
-
That’s awesome! I tried to get my drivers license with just the stamp and they put me into a SAVE verification check. Ugh.
-
Ok phew! Thank you. I guess the DMV just weren’t used to seeing it this way.
-
Yup. That’s written on the counterfoil. So the stamp is the endorsement and the date the D/S he wrote just means valid for that year I guess?
-
Is the I 551 the counterfoil they put in the page at the consulate before they sent it back? That full page sticker thing?
-
Yes I have the counterfoil in there as well. So I guess it’s fine that he messed up the date on the actual CR1 stamp?
-
So I crossed for the first time yesterday to activate my green card and I think the agent didn’t know what he was doing and he messed up my CR1 stamp. He put a date then crossed it out then out another date then crossed that out and the just put D/S. I tried to get my drivers license today and they were totally confused about the validity of my CR1. So I’m worried now that’s it not valid until I receive my actual physical green card and I have to take an international trip soon. Can I get this fixed?
-
Did you get your passport back? My interview was Jan 22, I got an email with the tracking number on Jan 23 and it arrived today on Jan 24. I paid for the premium delivery service.
-
I got my passport back today - yay! But I can’t pay the immigrant fee on the USCIS website. I keep getting “unexpected error”, I’ve tried a different browser and triple checked that I am entering the right numbers, but no luck. Is there an issue with their website right now?
-
Does anyone know which specific RCMP criminal record check they are accepting for citizenship applications? There are several different fingerprint based types and I have asked them but they don’t specify which one they want.
-
This exact same thing just happened to me. I did upload a copy of my new passport before the interview, and when I showed up they just wanted to see my old passport, but it was no issue at all. Does he still have his old passport?
-
I brought all of that stuff and they had a little locker I could store it in while I was upstairs. I brought my wallet upstairs, but no phone, watch, key fobs or earphones, they went in the locker.
-
Congrats! Not sure about SSN, but I was wondering how long did it take him at customs to activate the visa? I plan to fly and am not sure how much time I should plan for at customs. Also, after his visa status changed to Issued did he get tracking number by email or did he have to keep checking the delivery service website? I had my interview yesterday and it was marked Issued a couple hours after, yay!!🎉
-
I had my interview this morning and as far as I could tell their IT systems must have been working again because he told me I was approved at the end of the interview. And a couple hours later my case status changed to Issued. I was surprised it all happened so quickly! Did your wife get an update yet?
-
this is probably a dumb question, but where on the CEAC website do you see the status of your case after you are done your interview? Mine is this Monday and I’m going to be obsessively checking it post interview.
