Incorrect Middle Name on Green Card

 Share

Hi again everyone!

After my long journey, another one has opened up :( I do pray that all these waiting games shouldn't be that long :( and that I'm almost at the finish line.

I have just received my green card two weeks after the interview.. but the thing is, they placed an incorrect middle initial in the card. I got the welcome notice at first and noticed that they had my name with the incorrect middle initial and called up the call center right away. They told me to send a letter right away, to which I did. But unfortunately, I got the card a few days after that.

Now, my questions are as follows:

1. How long does it usually take to get a replacement card?

2. Is there any fee at all that I should pay? like the biometrics fee or processing fee for an I-90 (replacement of greencard)?

2. Would having a different middle initial in my greencard, be a "big deal" in making transactions in the near future?

3. me and my family would be moving to a different state by the end of this october... is it advisable to just try to get a replacement card after we moved there?

4. is it possible for me to apply for a driver's license with my current greencard (the one with a different middle initial)? I badly need a driver's license right away because we will be driving, and I might need to drive alone.

5. if it is better to start getting the replacement card right away, is it advisable for me to get an infopass to get a I-551 stamp in my passport?

6. how long does it take to get an infopass appointment? and would my intentions be valid for an infopass?

Thank you again in advance.

I already tried calling the offices today, but realized that they are all closed because it is a holiday :)
