IR 1 Vs CR1

[ahadhayat 0]

Hi,

My wife has finally made it to America. Thank God for that.. It took a while before this day came along. The POE experience was good. She wasnt asked any unusual questions, but when i saw the visa, it stated CR 1 rather then IR 1. We have been married for 2 yrs (in March), and the visa was approved about 3 weeks after our 2 Yr anniv, so i dont understand why we have a conditional status? They gave a notice saying that in 2 yrs we need to file to remove the conditional status. What is the criteria for being in CR 1 and IR1?

I am confused.

I have seen posts here about something like this.

Contact USCIS and correct the error, if it is one. (INFOPASS)

Did you alert the CBP officer about it?

Is the status based on the date that you file?

I thought the status is based on the day you receive the visa. Is that true? My wife didnt catch this untill i saw the passport when we got home. I am happy that she is here but i would have liked to not go through filling yet again after 2 yrs.

It's based on the date you enter the US. If you've been married for 2 years when you enter the US you should make the CBP employee aware of it to ensure they order your 10 year greencard.

Not the point, they should have been given a IR-1 since they had been married for more then 2 years when she entered. Make an infopass and correct the mistake.

because When they started PROCESSING THEIR VISA is BEFORE the 2 yr ANNIV or their wedding I guess thats why they gave YOUR WIFE a CR1.YOU HAVE TO call THEM to let them KNOW about your situation.
