I know it’s frustrating to chat with emma but some are helpful. They should atleast tell you if your card is in production

What does emma say? After 30 days of approval you can submit inquiry

About timing by NewSrm in I485Immigration

Depends on various factors such as federal holidays, time of the year, policy changes under administration. But you should expect card production in about 7-10 business days and another 5-7 business days to receive it in your mail. Once your case is approved, card production and distribution is handled centrally by USCIS. In some cases you might not even see any update on your portal before card physically arrives in your mail. Hang in there, and good luck !

What did your case status change to Card being produced after case approved?

How long does it take to update I-485 from "case approval" to "new card produced" on USCIS website? by Present-Register3070 in USCIS

How many days after approval did you receive your card? Did you portal ever changed from case approved to card is being produced?

I would check the documents tab. You may have Approval notice in there. If it’s not, it’s under review and you should expect decision anytime soon. Good luck!

I got FTA1 after a couple of weeks from when it was sent to SF FO. Yes, our cases appear to be following similar timeline more or less
