The online system at CIS shows that my AOS application has been approved. When can I get my permanent residence (I-551) stamp from CIS?
CIS sends the original approval notices to us, which may take 2-4 weeks from the time the online system is updated. Once we receive the Approval Notice from CIS we will send it to you. You may take the original Approval Notice, your valid passport, with at least one blank page, and if applicable, your EAD card and Advance Parole, to the local CIS office to obtain the I-551 stamp as temporary evidence of your permanent residence. The actual “green card” should arrive in the mail shortly after the approval of the AOS application. If 90 days have passed since the approval notice has been received and you have not received your green card please contact our office.
