my case was approved around 10/07 (since it is the date that a notice was sent out per AVM). My rd is 10/04, and number is
EAC-02-044-5XXXX.

while relieved, I have a couple of questions for these very helpful folks on this message board.

(1) A couple of weeks ago, I sent out a same questions. I was laid off in August, and was worried about RFE. While I do have a couple of job offers, I don't want to start working immediately.
So I am now still in the vacation mood :-). Given that the green card was approved, do I have any obligation to start working sooner? What if I stay out-of-job serveral more months longer, would INS think my green card a possible fraud, given it is employment based?

(2) Since the case was approved while I am out of US, I hear from murthy's talk, that my passport will be stamped when entering into US, instead of in INS local office. Is it correct? Is there any time frame that I should enter US after approval?

(3) May I claim unemployment benefit now? Would it jepodize green card?

Thanks all for the viewing and answering.

Congrats!!! About your questions, someone in this site posted that you should get your passport stamped within 30 days of your GC approval. While stamping, what would you do if they ask for paystubs or employer info?
