I'd like to hear an opinion as to how to proceed further with my case. My interview was on March 4th in Milwaukee. The interview went very smooth, it was short, the lady immigration officer was very pleasant and forthcoming, and we've been basically told to be approved, but since two fingerprints did not work (sweaty hands) we've been told to provide police clearance letters. As soon as these arrive, we've been told, the Green Card will then be issued. Not a problem, we obtained these in the next two days (clean police records, of course) and sent them to the said immigration officer so they should have been there by March 10th or so.

My concern now is that I have not received a single letter (Welcome letter), NOA, nor a Green Card now almost a full month since the interview? I even sent additional letter to the same address inquiring about the results last week to no avail? What would you suggest? Should I schedule an infopass (and if I do, should I schedule it in regards to "Never received a Permanent Residence Card" or "Case status that was filed")? Call a toll-free number offered on the site? I have no idea as to what is going on, but cannot believe my bad luck to be fretting now after everything went so smooth during the interview. My case status online is also still dated to Dec. 12th 08 when the case was still "pending". If anyone has experienced similar thing or has an advice, please help!
 
hard to tell. you may receive your GC anytime soon, it may be pending like mine 3 years after interview, even though we were said exact the same thing like they told you. online inquiry gives you information from a main centre office while your case is in local office (main centre online system may be never updated with your case status). misinformation line wont help as your case IS pending locally in your local office - misinformation line sees exactly the same info as you do online, not really more and no much of a help.
sure schedule infopass, just like I do every month. be prepared that you may eventually hear bunch of lies to will frustrate you to the highest! give you an example last december our congresmen inquiry - the same day answer "follow up interview within 60 days". ok so we are getting ready. no letter came went last tuesday for infopass showed the letter: "oh no, dont worry about that letter no interview yet, go home wi will let you know as soon as we know anything". up to that point my case is pending 3 years 5 months and 11 days. It did not make any impression on OP, she just said "we have cases pending 7, 10 years, go home".
wish you luck though!
 
OMG! I can't believe you have to wait that long, that is seriously outrageous! Everything seemed perfect when we went for the interview, obviously for some odd reason, they have failed to send me the request for the police clearance letters (after two fingerprints did not work), but the immigration officer provided us with the request sheet, and like I said simply said to mail it it back along with police clearance letters and she will order my green card. I cannot believe that she would purposefully delay the case. I think I'm going to go ahead and schedule the infopass. Thank you for your reply, I hope some people have more positive experience and can direct me as to what to do next.
 
Yeah, basically. She just said to mail those clearance letters and that she would then approve the green card right away. Yet, there's no answer/any kind of information for almost a month now. :confused:
