If you haven't received your green card after 120 days following your approval notice, first step is checking your case status online at the USCIS website with your application receipt number. If this doesn’t clarify the situation, you should contact USCIS directly through their customer service hotline or by scheduling an appointment via the USCIS Contact Center. Occasionally, delays can occur due to administrative or postal issues. If the card was sent but not received, you might need to file a Form I-90 to request a replacement.
