So basically my passport was stolen, I have notified the country the passport was issued from so it is no use to anyone now.

Do I need to notify anyone in the USA?

I have a conditional greencard so does that matter?

My passport had the original visa to enter the USA but is it worth anything now I have my greencard?

Thanks

Report it stolen to the police. Its a passport they are VERY valuable to scammers and cons.

Aside from reporting it to police (which you've done) you just need a new passport now.

The visa was voided as soon as you entered the US so don't stress about that. Because you reported it lost/stolen it's been "flagged" so it can't be used (I assume it was a chipped passport?) and if someone tries to use it for travel or whatever they would be able to.

So no stress. You've done all you need to.

Moving from AOS forum to General Immigration Forum as not an AOS issue

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

First of all, report the passport stolen to the Police.

Secondly, the visa in your passport means nothing, but for the ROC process you will need to state the absences from the US. If you have an interview, which is not very likely but could still happen, they would want to see your passport. That's why you need the police report.

Third. When you become a US citizen, you again will have to list every absence from the US since becoming a LPR. Here you definitely will have an interview, and in case the I.O. wants to see your passport, you again need to show the police report.

Forth. For immigration purposes alone you do not need another passport. But if you want to travel internationally and especially if an emergency makes international travel an urgent matter, it's good to have one. Thus I suggest you make an appointment at the Australian embassy or consulate and apply for a new Aussie passport. You'll have to show your Green Card for that, by the way.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.
