You can check the status of your Green Card directly online, but it can be a time consuming process.
There are a few variables on how long it will take for your Green Card to be processed. Ultimately, it will take around 3 months for processing, but to get a better idea, you’ll need to know where the field office you filed your Green Card from and the Service Center that it is processed from.
There are 4 different Service Centers in the US including California, Texas, Vermont, and Nebraska.

If it has been awhile and you are outside of your processing times, you can check the status of your Green Card to see what stage of the approval process you are in. This can be done by visiting the following link: egov.uscis.gov/cris/Dashboard.do
It will be broken down by 9 different stages ranging from acceptance to the production of the card. The further into the process you are, the less time you have to wait. The process will take awhile, so once you’ve started the application for your Green Card, you’ll need to have patience while everything is reviewed, documents are checked, and interviews are scheduled.
If you aren’t getting the information that you want about the progress of your application, there is a customer service number that you can call at 1.800.375.5283. You’ll be able to ask any questions about your case and find out about how much longer you can expect to wait. It’s important to understand the timeline, however, because if it’s only been a few weeks and you’re calling to find out how much longer, they’re going to know that you haven’t done your homework. Be patient. As long as you see progress within the first two months or so of submitting the application, then you’re on the right path.
