Helo everyone,
Finally i got my green card today(it was delivered yesterday and i didnt realise they deliver it on saturdays too) almost in about 26 days of POE. So that is preety quick i guess.
I would like to thank
@SusieQQQ for her prompt reply almost instantly. Similarly i would like to thank all those whose posts help me get through all the new stuffs, the supermoderators of this forum whose blog and comments have been very helpful.
Finally i would like to share my experience which may be helpful to some other people.
I paid my visa immigrant fee 1 week prior to my POE and since then my visa status was" On 14th feb 2017 we received your visa immigrant fee for your permanent resident card..........." and this status didnt change even after my POE on 20th feb, dallas as my POE. it was there for almost 12-14 days then my case was updated 3 times within a period of next 7-10 days. The first 2 updates said my case was submitted and the last update said my card was produced and sent to my mailing address. I didnt get any usps tracking address and it just appeared as a regular mail 2 days after the latest update. But i didnt get my ssn. I went to the local SSA office and enquired about my ssn but they asked me to wait for 3 weeks. I applied for it again a week back. Hopefully i get it in this coming week.
My suggestion to everybody as far as possible be very prepared before u fill ur ds 260, dont just think u can unlock it again later so write anything which is gud for sometime and change it later, think of long term and do not unlock the ds 260 unless it is absouletely necessary. The reason is i changed my address and blv me tht address was absolutely fine in ds 260 but it wasnt updated even at the time of interview. At my interview i asked the officer to change it again he did but put the house no incorrect. When i got the brown envelope i immediately noticed the wrong address and they asked me to correct it at POE which i did but guess what he again entered it incorrect. Finally while creating the uscis account i noticed my address to be incorrect and i changed it and mailed it to uscis which they replied tht it has been updated.
Regarding ssn few of my frens also didnt get their ssn so try to personally go n enquire n apply do not wait for it, seems like it is the new trend in the new dv system dont know but be prepared n do not wait for more than 3 weeks.
And the most important thing be patient which many of us are not including myself but we have to coz we got no option.
N guys read the posts in this forum everythings here and everybody is so helpful over here.
Thank u all for ur patience but wanted to share a few details abt my journey which has just started....
Cheers everyone...
