Thanks catatemyhw, i thought so too. it's funny how we wait YEARS for the approval email but can't wait few days for the card to come in the mail. more than 42000 visited this thread. helps to know that we are not alone in this anexity.
I know it's premature but I was reading about the naturalization process and couldn't help but feel discrimination when they give it to GC holders through marriage in only 3 years but we have to wait 5 years for that??????? I can see in active military you get it sooner, logic. but why the heck should a GC holder via marriage be treated different than us. I bet if thousands of us hired a lawyer to sue USCIS for that they'll change it. Think about it, and if you agree with me, let's start a thread for that, collect people and do it.

Sam i got a mail from CRIS few minutes back stating that

Application Type: I485 , APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS

Current Status: Approval notice sent.

On August 28, 2008, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I485 APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS. Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service.

GREAT NEWS
yesterday afternoon, 2 beautiful Green Cards were in my home mail. Also emails from CRIS approval notice mailed on 8/28 just like you..I'll be surprised if you don't get the cards today, so prepare yourself for a fun weekend. By the way the welcome letter is nothing but a thin folded brochure that comes in the envelop that has the card in it..so welcome notice = card in same envelop...
8/22--> emails--> mine and my wife's CPO
8/25--> emails--> welcome notice sent on 8/23
8/28--> 2 cards arrive in the mail
8/28-->emails--> approval notice mailed on 8/28
GOOD LUCK TO EVERY BODY.

Finally some news on my case (which got approved on 6/11): I just returned from my second biometrics appointment. They realized that my biometrics data was lost, or just gave up looking for it and scheduled me for another round of fingerprinting. About an hour after the appointment, I received a status update from CRIS: "Current Status: This case has been sent to another office for processing because it has jurisdiction over the case." They (again) transferred my case to Texas. Maybe this time the fingerprints will be sent to the correct service center. So, now I'm waiting for the CPO email...

Has anyone received the actual approval notice (I797 notice of action)? Does it go to the attorney's office, or the applicant gets it in mail? I received Welcome notice (I797C), which means courtesy copy.

you're right, I have received the cards and the welcome notice but not yet the approval notice. Not that I'm eagerly waiting for it but you've got a point here.

Hello everyone,

I thought I could try my luck by posting the dates here and joining the club: :-)

09/08 Soft LUD
09/04 Received CPO letter by postmail
09/04 Approval notice sent email
08/26 Notice mailed welcoming permanent resident email
08/25 CPO email

I hope I'll get my card soon. I am starting to worry a bit, but since I'm within the general timeline according to some of the posts, I am keepin my hopes high.

Best,

Mili.

wouldn't be approval notice will be same as courtesy copy? I think it should be exact same. Even copy we received is courtesy copy but it says about approval in the description.

baroda123,
then why would they send 2 different emails on 2 different days. one saying welcome notice sent, and the other says approval notice sent? I am travling back home tomorrow for 5 days to bring my wife to the USA. her GC got approved while away (last status H4, no AP) I am taking her GC wit me and we're coming together. I was hoping to also take her approval notice with me (don't know why, but just being extra cautious I think).

My lawyer said its same - I think its better to have the I797 with us just to make sure we have all the paperwork with us. After all, applicant is responsible for I485 process, not the employer. In my case, attorney hasn't received approval notice yet. Has anyone received it yet?

Hi friends,

Happy to share the news. I received the CPO email yesterday 09/11/08.
More than happy to receive it. Did not receive any emails for my wife, but her
online case status shows Card Production Ordered!

When should one expect the "Approval Notice Sent" email? What additional
emails should I expect?

Thanks,

I have received my Green Card three weeks ago. Today I got an email that document has been mailed. I received all document with my green card and what is that they have mailed after three weeks. I called USCIS and they said that they have the same info that document has been mailed. Is there any problem with my approved green card? I recently changed address online. Is it related to that? (reply) (report this)

Posted by lrindy (1477) 12 Sep 2008
It should be the change of address confirmation notice. You relax now, it takes 2 to 4 weeks for USCIS to send out snail mail confirmations of address changes. FYI: If you move again please make sure you inform USCIS at each and every move.

Congrats to you and yours. Enjoy the new greened life.


Cheers,

LRIndy.

Texas Service Center

Welcome notice sent on 8/15/08
Priority Date 03/23/05
Category EB-2 India
485 Filing Date - July 2nd 2007

My case got approved while I was in India. The green card for me and my spouse was waiting in the mail. I did not know about it until I checked my mail. I entered on my advance parole and my wife on her H1b. The immigration officer did not mention at all that the case was approved. we were in for a pleasant surprise when we picked up the mail from the Post office.

09/12 CRIS email with I-140 approved
09/12 CRIS email with I-485 "Notice mailed welcoming the new permanent resident" (filed concurrently Jul 07 2007)

The status of my application changed to "Card production ordered" on 09/08. However, it hasn't changed since then and no card yet (09/17). Is that typical? Would an expedite request work at this stage (if accepted?)

Thanks!

Call the USCIS, however - there is a slight lag between the time you get the email..I guess you should have it before friday..GOODLUCK..

I just called USCIS they said, that my app is awaiting to be pre-adjudicated and no decision has been made, but she also said that I should hear something by month end, so keeping fingers crossed and waiting to join this club sooooooooooooN!!
