Green Card delivery date…
My I-485 got approved last week March 2, 2023… usually when does my status in the USCIS account to change to card being produce? or is there any instances that they won’t change it and i will just receive my green card in the mail without any notice? thanks

Same here, I got approved on March 4,2023; and my status in my USCIS account is “Case approved” so I got the same question.
Chris TMar 7, 2023
@M G do you get notifications thru email?
M GMar 7, 2023
yes I only received “we have taken action on your case” but on my account i saw my approval notice
Chris TMar 7, 2023
@M G cause I heard others they get notified thru email about their card being produced without changing the status in their uscis account..
S DMar 7, 2023
no interview?
Chris TMar 7, 2023
@S D no interview… they just asked for Medical RFE
M GMar 7, 2023
@Chris T No, I haven’t get notified thru email about my card being produced.
arowana LuckyMar 7, 2023
Wow! I got approved too March 3 No Interview..Case Approved I-485. No update for today still Case Approved but I will receive my Social security today as per USPS. I saw it in my account notification. It generated to ss services when i got approved last friday 3/3. Usually sequence is New card is being produced then Case Approved but for somehow we jump on Case approved so we will expect to received our card either this friday or saturday as my social sec is already coming tonight. Its true and legit...Thank you God!!!
Chris TMar 7, 2023
@arowana Lucky I received my SSN card yesterday and it has the wrong spelling of my first name… Im just waiting for the green card to be delivered so I can fix the name issue in the social security office
arowana LuckyMar 7, 2023
@ Chris T. Oh sorry to hear that but at least we got approved! I ll check mine later hopefully there is no misspelled. We should be receiving our GC either this friday or saturday. My friend's GC same situation. His! stuck on Case approved didn't changed at all but received in 7 days....
Chris TMar 7, 2023

Randy chaturaMar 8, 2023

Ibrahim YakubuMar 8, 2023

Chris TMar 8, 2023
@Ibrahim Yakubu so you’re approved March 2 and its now card produced?
M GMar 8, 2023
Congratulation for your approvals! any update?
M GMar 8, 2023
@arowana Lucky Congratulations! where do you track your SSN?
Jolene XuMar 8, 2023
Approved March 1 and still shows card is being produced.
arowana LuckyMar 8, 2023
@ MG sign up on usps informed delivery. You’ll see all your letter before it gets delivered next day..
Chris TMar 8, 2023
@Jolene Xu When you were approved March 1… when did your status changed to “card is being produced”?
Jolene XuMar 8, 2023
@Chris T it's March 1st that day got changed. Same day when it was approved.
Jolene XuMar 8, 2023
@Chris T actually 2 mins ago it was changed to card was picked up by usps
Chris TMar 8, 2023
@Jolene Xu wow yours is fast! congratulations 🎉
M GMar 8, 2023
@Jolene Xu GC or EAD?
Chris TMar 8, 2023
@Jolene Xu i just looked in your profile… is it the EAD card that theyre giving you? or the Green card?
Jolene XuMar 8, 2023
@Chris T it's my ead finally. I got a fasle notification a couple months ago but this time is real
M GMar 9, 2023
@Chris T @Driss H @arowana Lucky @NOOR KARIM @ashi shami no update si far?
Chris TMar 9, 2023
@M G none so far.. I actually subscribed to the informed delivery with USPS so i could check if I have mails coming from the USCIS
M GMar 9, 2023
me too! @Chris T I only see my approval notice, thanks @arowana Lucky for the tip
Chris TMar 9, 2023
@M G oh wow at least you’ll get the approval letter already… im still waiting for my approval letter…
arowana LuckyMar 9, 2023
@M G still the same Case approved. But i will received the approval letter tomorrow both I130 and I485. EAD is different and i think its faster. I also don't know if it has something to do with GC redesigned. It started this Jan 2023. @ Chris T i received my ss and its missing my middle initial so as soon as i get my gc i ll go to SSA office. I am still hoping to get the GC before end of this week!
NOOR KARIMMar 9, 2023
@M G No still stuck on case approved since approval day i was feeling hopeful to receive my card this week but now i don’t believe it anymore i will just relax and wait until uscis decide to send me my green card lol 😎
NOOR KARIMMar 9, 2023
@arowana Lucky yes i believe that’s maybe the delay the redesigne of the green card. Maybe we will be the first batch to receive it that’s why it’s taking for ever i don’t even know if i’m a resident yet because this letter i received uscis say it’s doesn’t give you any benefits it’s only a courtesy notice technically i’m still illegal can’t work can’t drive how cruel ☹️
arowana LuckyMar 9, 2023
@ Noor Karim We are already Lawful permanent resident since the day that USCIS approved our AOS thats why some of us already received the SSN that doesn't have a marked of anything like not valid for work or something. We can even go to USCIS local field office for i551 passport stamp as a proof of LPR if you really need to go to DMV to apply for Driver license. Rest assured we are already LPR.
NOOR KARIMMar 9, 2023
@arowana Lucky Thank you for the clarification appreciate you.
Driss HMar 9, 2023
@M G hello no update so far .According to what I saw , it may take one month to receive it. I know someone who has been approved one month ago and he just received hi GC. I agree the production process is different for GC and takes more time to receive it
NOOR KARIMMar 9, 2023
@Driss H It’s use to be only 1 to 2 weeks but now days with all this post pandemic issues it’s might take a while mine still stuck on case approved lol
Driss HMar 9, 2023
@NOOR KARIM you right !
arowana LuckyMar 9, 2023
We are all anxiously waiting for the physical card as we have waited months, year for this to happen hahaha. Anyway this is a good wait better than awaiting for an approval. If i dont receive any update tomorrow like card produced then i will make an appointment to go to my uscis local field office (Sacramento) thru emma, infopass to have a stamp i551 on my passport as i need to go so SSA office to fix my name on my SSN. and DMV for real ID…Have a wonderful day to everyone..Chill! we reach the end of tunnel. Thank you God for everything!
NOOR KARIMMar 9, 2023
@arowana Lucky We have mailed an official notice about this case (and any relevant documentation) according to the mailing preferences you chose on Form G-28, Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney or Accredited Representative. This is a courtesy copy, not the official notice. anyone receive any other mail other than approval notice my lawyer still didn’t receive anything from uscis yet.
arowana LuckyMar 9, 2023
@Noor Karim I will only received the approval notice of i130and 1485 based on my usps informed delivery. When i got approved last March 3 i informed my Attorney that i have already approved both and she just congratulated me and told me I will received my GC next month which i doubt because some of people here at lawfully received it within 7-10 days after approved.
NOOR KARIMMar 9, 2023
@arowana Lucky I already told my attorney as well but in my case it’s only 485 approval that’s why reading what uscis said made it look like they’re sending official approval notice to my lawyer “”We mailed an official notice about this case (and any relevant documentation) according to the mailing preferences you chose on Form G-28, Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney or Accredited Representative. This is a courtesy copy, not the official notice””
Did you have the same thing written on the notice you received online
arowana LuckyMar 9, 2023
@ Noor Karim No i dont have that courtesy copy online
NOOR KARIMMar 9, 2023
@arowana Lucky Oh okay thanks! speaking about the official approval notice i just got the email from my lawyer after my last reply to you and there’s a official copie of my approval attached to it. thank you so much for responding to my annoying questions now will wait for card to arrive!🙏🏽
arowana LuckyMar 9, 2023
@Noor Karim No problem. There are no annoying questions we are all new to this thing and trying to help each other. What matter most is we are all LPR now. Congratulations to everyone in here. Good luck to all of us for a new beginning!

Erick JiménezMar 17, 2023
guys I got a question: Once I got the approval notice, do I have to do finger prints again or is that “you may need to do biometrics” only part of a standard message on all approval letters?
cristy simonMar 17, 2023
approved March 4 and I haven’t received yet.
Chris TMar 17, 2023
@Erick Jiménez I dont think you have to do it again… not unless they request it and they will send you a schedule for biometrics
Lady StomMar 17, 2023
@Chris T how long did you wait for a case to be approved after you submitted a new medical form?
Chris TMar 17, 2023
@Darina K I sent my I-693 (Medical RFE) thru USPS last Feb 8, 2023 and it arrived in the Queens FO Feb 9, 2023 (according to my USPS tracker). My status changed to RFE received last Match 1, 2023 then it changed to Case approved the following day March 2, 2023.
Erick JiménezMar 17, 2023
do you guys know if I can get a stamp on my passport that shows that I am a green card holder in order to travel as I am waiting for the actual green card to be mailed?
Erick JiménezMar 17, 2023
I need to travel this week abroad and I got my approved notice last week.
Zs LMar 17, 2023
@Erick Jiménez yes you can thats the point of the stamp
