Ok guys I have completed the ritual of getting my passport stamped today morning. I got it done in Tampa, FL. I reached there at 6:15 and there are about 50 people already there in the queue. They let me in at about 9:00. Then waited inside again until 10:15 to get my turn. After my token was called I showed her the courtesy copy of the Approval and my passport. She asked me for the photos and then she filled the application I-551. After that she called me to a different room and asked me to sign the application and finger print with my right index finger. After that she stamped my passport with a validity of one year. She took only the approval notice. I asked her if she need to take any other documents like I-94, AP, EAD etc. She said "NO". The service was courteous and got a good feeling walking outside. I was sleepy though when I was in the room. She told that the card would take about 6 months.
I live in TSC region but my GC was processed in VSC. Any word on how long would it take to get the actual card ?
I have seen bunch of well know people on the board getting approvals. Congratulations again to all of you and good luck for the waiters.
