Congrats Balyan.

Quick question: You informed that "IO asked both of you to sign" but when we had our interview everything went off well and IO told that we will be receiving notices in 10 days, but IO did not asked us to sign . Is it normal or something still pending from my side?

Appreciate someone can clarify my doubt.

Thanks
Narayan

For me neither software updates on my online status nor NOA letters since 7th May 2010 ( Interview Date) leave alone GCs.

No GC here yet, Rabin. Only 2 emails saying that "card production ordered". I will be sure that they actually mailed the card if I get the third email.

60days from the date of interview or from the date of NOA, or from the date of EAD received?

Was advised by IO that if my spouse needs to travel outside the country prior to having the acutal GC in hand, she should get an infopass appointment and have I-551 stamped.

Guessing an Infopass in case where an approval has been committed would not hurt. Thoughts?

So, I need some advice. I am planning to take a trip to Canada soon. I did not receive my GC yet, so in theory I should be able to use my I-551 - stamped passport which is my temporary proof of residence. However, I just realized that the IO wrote my MSC - receipt number below the I-551 stamp, except that she wrote it incorrectly! So, I am wondering if I can just go (and bring my NOA with the correct receipt number), or is it better to ask for an infopass... ?
 
Fushy, i dont know why she wrote ur MSC number underneath the I-551 stamp. Mine was my A-number. You can take it with ur approval letter and travel
