I485 approved week ago, no further update
hi folks, My wife, kid and my i485 got approved on July 6th. my wife and kid received their green cards in mail today (their case status’ got updated to card was mailed, etc over the past week) , but my case status is still showing “case was approved” and card didn’t arrive yet. I am happy that my case is approved, but not receiving card is making me nervous (I waited for years for green card) . anyone noticed delays in receiving green card recently. I saw posts about EAD card printing delays because of vendor change, not sure there are delays for green card printing as well.

I chatted with Emma this morning, they are asking to wait for 30 days (normal processing time). the agent also hinted the reason could be printing shortage issues, but I am not sure. anyone else who got approved after July 7th, get their green cards mailed to them?

hi @issic l - 12 days since my approval, but green card is not mailed by USCIS. I called Emma multiple times, standard response is that card has been ordered, but no future information. not sure why this delay for few cases like mine. I received my approval notices though. I keep calling Emma every few days incase an agent reveals more information as to what is causing this delay. you could try the same
