Hi Ciba /others,

Does any body know how long does it take now a days to receive plastic card after Passport stamping.I have heard stories of people taking 5-6 months .Is this true? How safe is it to travel outside of the US and change jobs with just the stamp in your passport.

Once the passport is stamed how soon can we change jobs ? Is there any restriction.

I will appreciate if anybody can share some information /thoughts .

Thanks
Sajan

Note that there is another discussion on this web site that is more appropriate for plastic card issues: "After the Green Card". You will find postings in there on this topic -- and some of the guys who used to post in here :)

Of course you can try to start this thread too, it\'s up to you ...

Take care!

sajan,

The stamp IS the proof of your PR status. Travelling with
the stamp should have no problem. As for changing job,
it all depends on the "intent," that is, you should not
leave yourself a loophole of being interpreted as changing
job immediately after getting your green card. It is
advised to wait a few more months. There is no definitive
answer to this.

In all, congratulations on becoming a PR!
