How long does take to get a green card after interview has been approved (family based)

Does anyone know how long should it take to receive my green card? I just had my interview and its been approved by officer and she told me that it usually takes about 3 weeks but online status still says "Testing and interview" ?
 
When my wife got her GC in 2010 the officer that interviewed us said that she was going to make a recommendation of approval to her supervisor. She did say that officially they have to say 30 days for the approval letter and 60 days for the card. However, in reality (as the officer also said) it is one week for the letter and two weeks for the card. I did receive an automated update regarding card production order late the evening of the interview. However, I wouldn't trust the online case status system since our I-130 and I-485 applications where not in the case status update system until a month after we filed.

In your situation, I would recommend making an InfoPass appointment at the field office where you had your interview. Try to schedule your InfoPass appointment for 30 days after your interview date.
 
Congrats !!

For me it took around 15 days from the day i responded to RFE in my interview. check my signature.

You should get it in less than 30 days. I know your feeling a mixture of paranoia,expectation and excitement lol.

Yea hopefully. the thing is its been 2 weeks since Ive had my interview but online check status still says '' Testing and Interview'' and I called USCIS and asked them whats goingg on and they said that decision hasnt been made yet supposedly even though officer told us that its approved.
 
Verbal approval is not official approval. It may still have to wait for supervisor review before the official approval is given and the card is printed.
 
Hello IgorB, I am wondering eventually how long did it take for your to get your GC in mail?

I am having similar situation as you did earlier.
Thank you
