Hey guys,
Can any one explain me what's the difference bet'n CR1 & IR1?

Thanks,
HHP

The CR1 is received when your visa is approved and you are married for less than 2 year. Once approved you will have a 2 year Green card.

The IR1 is received when your visa is approved and you are married for more than 2 years, this would be an automatic process, nothing additional you would have to do. at this point a 10 year green card is automatically assigned

I got married in 2006 and can you explain me why M I in IR1 status?

I cannot, I only knew the answer to your first question. I too got married in 2006

hp&hhp,

You aren't. But someone may have made a typographical error on a document.

What document do you have that says you are IR-1?

[/quote if you have been married less than 2 years when your spouse enters the US on an immigrant visa, the permanent resident status is considered "conditional' . You and your spouse must apply to remove the condition 90 days before your spouses two year anniversary. I believe that you will get this info at the time when you receive the visa.

Your status can not be an IR-1 rather it must be a CR-1, since you got married in 2006. Someone must have made a typing error.
