Question to Jseb about address change
Hey Jseb
congrats on getting your card !
How did you go about updating your new address to NSC ? Through the regular AR-11 and 1-800-phone line ? Or did you send a separate letter to NSC?
WHen I called yesterday and told them I am changing my address, the lady on the phone said nothing can be done about the address as the case has already been approved, so she cannot make any changes to the address.
I found that weird ( as I do about everything that USCIS does)

Card Inquiry
kharghosh,
I called National Customer Center for Address Change and also Submitted AR-11 at the same time. They updated my address and send a letter stating, you will receive card within 8-10 months. I received the card within 8 months of my I-485 approval.
In my opinion, there is no point to contact them frequently.

Card Received!
The card was received on 02/28/2005. It has been 252 days.
The IIO didn't give me any useful information when I talked to a lady officer one month ago. I asked her why I haven't received the welcome package, she told me that I won't get it since my 485 was approved by the local office. She was completely wrong.

Why Nebraska is slow
did anybody knows why Nebraska is slow in issuing cards, In other centers they generally issue cards within 3/4 weeks time

Please add my details to the spreadsheet
Hi Everyone,
Was too busy with work and could not visit the forum for a while. Also once you are approved the attitude changes.
It has been over seven months since I got my approval. No sign of the plastic card as yet. I do not really care if it is not for my intended travel out of the country during July/ August'05. That is when my one year of stamping gets expired.
So to see what is going on with my card, I called up national service number and I was transfered to an Immigration officer. He asked me to wait till June and still not got my card, advised me to send an enquery form. But I decided to send the form immediately and did it last week.
Going by the postings in this thread, it looks like that everyone is getting their respective cards in about 8 months after the approval. If this holds good then I am very close to 8 months since the approval. I will update my status here if there is any change.
I request someone to update the spreadsheet with my details.

Hi My 485 was approved on march 25th 2003, and pasport stamped on april 5th. I called USCIS about 3 months back, they said it takes about 1 year to get my card.
I am close to 1 year now, still thinking whether to call them again or not. Last time responce was not good from them. Are they giving more information in details these days? Some one in this forum was saying that, they were trasfered to an immigration officer, they didn't do that to me last time, only the cust rep responded.
any suggesions?

That some one is me !
My call went to a service rep initially. When I told her that I have not received my card and also the welcome kit that they are supposed to send prior to sending the card, she transfered me to an immigration officer. I do not know why she did it, I never asked for it.
Try calling them again ! Good luck !

Thank you everyone. Best wishes to you all. Just an added piece of information. When I went for stamping, the officer said it would take about 12-15 months to get the card. When he said it, I was shocked and to some extent disappointed. But talking with other officers from NSC, I learned that it would take about 7-8 months. It was exactly seven months after stamping date, the card was ordered.
Another observation: that those who are called for an I485 interview seem to get the plastic card in less than two months whereas for those who received the approval online, it seems to take longer than six months.
