~ 6 months. But may vary in each case :)

card received for me and spouse. aprv date 10/25/04 Passprt stamp date 11/4/04

If you don't get passport stamped, how could they order a card for you. You need fill a form and submit photos and finger print to get a card.

Try use a different option (like general question, meeting officer) other than the specific one for stamping. As long as you have an appointment you are fine.

By the end of fiscal year, meaning Sep 2005.

I've read many threads on this issue. Murthy says 6-month is minimum; some lawyer saying >one year is safe. Old rule of two years was removed after AC-21 was born. What the law says is that you must have the intention to work for sponsoring employer WHEN you GC is approved. Hence 6 month or...

The link has no information on where to find ss office, which is what I want to know. It may or may not be next door to the service center. update: found the website, http://www.ssa.gov/replace_sscard.html type in your zip to find local office.

where do we change ssn card? I understand the no is not changed, but the new card should not have "not authorized to work".

Agree. Marry your sweatheart asap, or find another one. Otherwise you will experience the pain.

I don't think so - I assume you started a new LC with company B.

Is the card processing also center by center? if yes, is other center faster? I don't see why printing a card is so hard. My employer make an id card for me in about 3 minutes.

Congrats, bharity! GRCA, did you online message change? Mine still says fingerprint was received... Anyway, I did pp stamp on 11/4. It's not that important, but I'd like to see some message about 'card ordered'...

Is one required to give up all the I-94 upon pp stamping? I thought no more I94 for PR.

Agree, he probably made his card himself :) At least you need submitt your photos.

My lawyer told me 6 months- 1 yr. May be it depends on the SC?
