Question about NYC Infopass appointment for I-551 and I-90

Hello,

 

So my greencard card arrived this week, which was great except it had been issued incorrectly. It was issued with an IF1 category and a ten year expiry date, instead of having a two year conditional date and a CF1 category. We were only married in December 2016 so I know this is a mistake. I made an Infopass appointment to get an I-551 passport stamp on the recommendation of another forum user, and managed to get one in two weeks time, but I am wondering if I should send back the greencard and the I-90 form prior to the appointment, or keep hold of it, take everything along to the appointment and turn it in there. On the one hand I don't want to give up my proof of residency, but on the other I don't want to get to the appointment and have them refuse to stamp my passport with an I-551 because i haven't submitted an I-90 yet. I tried calling USCIS but they weren't too helpful!

 

Anybody have any experience in this area? Thank you!

I don't think that this is error at all, some people just get the 10 years on spot at the time of the interview, most of the people will get the 2 years conditional but some people does get the 10 years one. I think that you're just one of he lucky ones.

Congratulation!!!

Thanks for your reply, I'm interested in what makes you say that? Everything I have read states that K1 visa holders adjusting their status will be issued a two year conditional greencard if they have been married for less than two years. The only thing that the USCIS officer I spoke to on the phone yesterday seemed certain of was that it was an error. Sadly, he didn't have much in the way of helpful suggestions as to how best to fix the error! :rolleyes:

 

As great as it would be to have been granted a ten year greencard, I really don't want this to come back to bite me in the butt in the future...

I didn't realize that you're married for less than 2 years and beside I don't really know the condition of the people that said that they got a 10 years green card on spot, right after interview. I think you might be better off consulting with a lawyer, they usually charge as low as $100.00 for a consultation appointment.

Good luck and congrats!

PS. Your Green Card didn't come with instructions of what to do in case there is some kind of error? I think you should follow the instructions that came with your Green Card.

Thank you, I think I will head to the infopass appointment and get the I551 stamp in my passport. I'll follow the I90  instructions I have too, and hope for the best!

Definitely an error. Definitely have it corrected, no lawyer needed. Go to infopass and see if a filled out I-90 can be
left with them to forward to where it needs to go.
