Thanks.

I am thinking about leaving my current career and do something different in about two years or so (start my own business in a different field). Here is my situation: got my GC about a year and half ago, and switched to a different company after a year of getting the GC. Now I want to do...

Hi, If this is an inappropriate question for this forum, I apologize in advance. I have an uncle who does not live in this country, but wants to buy a house here for investment purposes? Is he legally allowed to do so? Can anyone point me to any resource regarding this subject? Any...

It is my understanding is that as soon as your 485 is approved, you are a permanent resident of this country regardless of whether you have stamped your passport or not. Stamp is nothing more than an evidence of your PR status. I don't think you have a valid H1B status any longer. Experts...

Not true. LC salary is the projected salary that one should be getting once the green card is approved. Not true again. It's ok to make less than 20 percent as long as the company is willing to adjust your salary to the amount stated in LC application once 485 is approved. If possible, have...

I got mine 3/4 weeks ago and it took around 9 months. Good luck.

Well, I got a call from my lawyer today that he received the plastic cards yesterday (the cards were mailed to him and not to me, because uscis replaced my address with the lawyer's one. I gave them the correct address during stamping, but apparently that didn't fix it). He fedex'ed it, so I...

Trends showing that it's taking somewhere between one and one & half week.

No, my application is with NSC.

Status changed to "card mailed". Will let you know once I receive them in the mail.

Gheewalabhai, No, I didn't. I know people who got their approvals in January received their cards recently. Seems that it's taking around 8 to 9 months (for people in Minnesota at least - I don't know if it varies from state to state). You should get yours soon.

Status changed Status changed today for both my wife and me: "On September 27, 2004, after approving your application, we ordered you a new card. Your card will be mailed to you as soon as it is ready." Will keep you posted. hbt SD: 02/02/04

A former collegue of mine recently got his card. It took about 8 months. I am hoping for the same for the rest of us.

Good idea! :)

Congrats! :) However, you are not done yet completely. Welcome to the waiting line for the plastic card.

Those of us that are from Minnesota are screwed. We have been told that it is gonna take 1.5 yrs to get the card. Anyone else from Minnesota?

ISRGreen, Congrats. Could you share which city & state you are from? Thanks.

If yours was a local office transfter case, you will probably get the plastic card within the next 2/3 weeks. Otherwise God knows when you will get it! No one seems to know (let me know if anyone knows).

I had a similar experience. I entered the US with I-551 stamp on May 16 via SanFrancisco. They sent me and my family to the secondary inspection room. There were no questions asked, but we had to wait for about 10/15 mins while they checked things out. After that, they made me go through an...
