How many days it is taking to get the card physically mailed, after approval message.

Hi, could you tell me which center was your case at.....mine was a NSC and I had recd the same e mails on teh same dates but no card ordered email ....and no card yet...
 
I just got my Welcome Notice / Approval Notice that says welcome to the United States etc. No card yet. Mine was approved on 6/20 so maybe in two days, I hope.

Welcome-notice is from USCIS directly. Card is manufactured in a remote site (Kentucky) which is then sent to you directly.

Based on approval date & your residence location (from kentucky), I would estimate you should be getting it between 6/26-6/29 ;) .

My case was originally filed with NSC (not a transfer case).

Based on many people inputs in this forum, there seems to be no consistency in USCIS automated email.

Plastic card usually sent within in 10 days from date of approval. This may be little more in the future for sometime due to too many number of approvals.

Wish you get the CARD soon without any error.
 
Guys,

Those who go the cards, did you receive a Card Mailed notification? I didn't receive one. The last mail to me was card ordered on Jun/22/07. I am planning to travel to Canada coming friday (Jun/29). If I don't get the card by then, I am planning to get my passport stamped at Detroit USCIS office. Is there any difficulty doing that? Please share your experience.

Thanks..

Yesterday I had an info pass at Philly - USCIS office and they told I they don't stamp on PP and they said Travel Document AP is good enough (as long as it is valid) to travel before you get your plastic card.

I think you will get your 'CARD' b4 friday.

Rcvd Plastic Card

Guys it took 7 days for my plastic to arrive.

The email and the status update changed (approval notice sent) a day after receiving the approval notice. As usual inconsistent...

My card arrived yesterday,but so far I haven't received the card mailed email. I only received the email that card production is ordered, on the day of approval. So don't go by the theory that U'll get the card in mail, only after U receive the email saying so... Don't we all, by now know how USCIS work ?

As usual buffoonary :)
