Have you been approved but still have not received your new green card? Here’s why:
Green Card Delays
USCIS is announcing that applicants may experience up to an eight week delay in the delivery of their permanent resident card while we are in the process of upgrading our card production equipment. USCIS Field Offices will be issuing temporary evidence of permanent residence in the form of an I-551 stamp to applicants approved for permanent residence at the time of their interview. You will need to take your passport to your appointment. If you do not have a passport, you must bring a passport style photo and government issued photo identification to receive temporary evidence of permanent residence.
If the application is approved subsequent to your interview or by a Service Center or the National Benefit Center, the applicant should bring the above documents to an INFOPASS appointment to be issued temporary evidence of permanent residence in the form of an I-551 stamp.

When Marcus came to the United States from Brazil, he was 2 years old. His father was hired by an internationally known company which any American teenager would readily recognize, and his family had the opportunity to live and work in the United States. During the years in which his father was employed in the United States, Marcus led a normal life growing up and attending school with the hopes of being a professional baseball player.
Unfortunately, all of this changed when he received a college baseball scholarship. After visiting the college and completing his application, he was notified he could not attend college or accept the scholarship without a social security number.

The key here is that you are bringing together the US Company or employer with the foreign worker who has the necessary skills and experience needed by the employer.
