Permanent residents with expiring or lost green cards must file an I-90 application for replacement. According to the USCIS, the current processing time for I-90, Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card, is approximately 6 months.  However, it has been reported that some I-90 applications  are pending well beyond the 6 months.  The USCIS Field Operations Office attributes the delay to the fact that the National Benefits Center is understaffed and unable to handle the volume of I-90 applications. In an effort to resolve this issue, the USCIS has been forwarding applications to various local offices.

In the meantime, individuals with a pending I-90 application who are in need of evidence of their permanent resident status should obtain a temporary I-551 stamp in their passport.  The stamp is obtained at a local USCIS office by scheduling an InfoPass appointment and may be valid for up to one year.

 

To apply for an I-551 stamp, the following documentation is needed:

§  Valid passport;

§  InfoPass appointment notice (if applicable);

§  Form I-90 receipt notice;

§  Proof of residence within the jurisdiction of the USCIS office;

§  Copy of expired/lost green card (if available);

§  Documents evidencing the need for the I-551 stamp, if request is based on an emergency walk-in (i.e. flight itinerary, doctor’s letter or death certificate, along with evidence of the relationship to an ill or deceased relative; company letter if emergency travel is work-related, etc.);

§  Copy of date-stamped ASC appointment notice evidencing biometrics capture (if applicable).

The USCIS will typically issue the I-551 stamp with a validity period of 6 to 12 months. However, if the applicant’s passport expires prior to that time, the stamp will likely reflect the expiration date of the passport. Additionally, if biometrics have not yet been captured for the pending I-90, the office might further limit the validity period of the stamp to a period of 30 to 60 days.

Evidence of permanent resident status is essential for work, travel, or to obtain a state issued driver’s license. Therefore, if you have an I-90 application pending, you should obtain an I-551 stamp to avoid issues related to the above mentioned matters.

Hi, saw this post. I have my schedule for the infopass next week & I didn't know that we have to apply for I-90 for my expiring GC. actually no idea of that. Also when I scheduled my infopass the only requirement stated in their site was Valid ID, copy of the appointment letter & needed documents for my pending application.

Hello folks. I'm a November 2016 filer as well. 

 

I had 751 application as a Divorcee. 

 

I tried getting an Infopass as my one year extension had expired. It was a pain to get an appointment till I used the distill webpage change tracker and got one super last mijute to go in today Saturday 12/16/16

 

My online status didn't show anything since my receipt was confirmed. 

 

I went in to get a 551 stamped and the officer told me I was already approved on 12/11 and my green card was being shipped out soon. 

 

If you guys are in NYC I think it's worth showing up as I did see a few people show up without appointments. 

 

Good luck to everyone and let me know if I can answer any questions.

Did anyone else realize that for CSC it now says that they're working on July 27, 2016? Weren't they working on August when it was updated last month?

Yes, I guess the reason behind that was because they are getting a lot of service request inquiry while some June and May 2016 filers are still waiting for their approval.
