That\'s a myth. You were official PR the moment you were processed for I-551 i.e., when your passport was stamped. The card is merely an "evidence" of your status, not the status itself. Remember 10 years from now when you renew your GC (assuming you don\'t apply for naturalization by then), you will be in the same state again - stamp in the passport & waiting for a card in the mail. This wait for the plastic card is not needed & has no real significance! Congrats again!
