Green Card Undelivered
Hello all,
I have been approved of my permanent residency in the US based on marriage after the long application and interview process, however, I still have not received the card in mail yet.
While it was being shipped out, I was in a process of moving and they were delivered back to the USCIS as undeliverable.
After having to wait for 30 days after requesting for the status update, I asked for it to re-ship it to my new address.
I received a mail after about 5 days saying that I should be receiving my card within 30 days.
I called USCIS to receive tracking number and status update because it has been about 24 days and I still haven't received anything yet.
They said they do not have the tracking number but if I don't receive anything by 10/25 (30days mark) then call them back.
The thing is I have an international trip planned during the second week of November to Cancun with my husband.
If I do not receive my card by then, what can I do or what will happen?
I have a travel permit that is supposed to expire by next February (I applied & was approved while applying for green card). I am not sure if it's still valid and will come in handy for this trip.
Can I use that instead? Since I was approved of my green card, I already have the approval letter as well as the green card number but the only thing I am missing is the physical card.
What would you advise me to do at this point? Our trips are not refundable. Has anyone experienced the same thing before?
Thank you!!!
