When we received my husbands greencard there was an expiration date error on it...it had an expiration date of 2 years, when it should have been 10 years....we had been married longer than 2 years before entering the country. Long story short, I sent in the paperwork and he had to do biometrics on May 5. How long does it usually take for a new green card to come? The USCIS website it pretty much useless as it never has an up to date processing time...

Has anyone dealt with this recently for a more accurate time frame?

Makes no difference. You can receive a ten year unconditional green card even from a CR-1 provided you've been married at least two years on the day of PoE.

CBP may need to be reminded of this at PoE however. It sounds like this may have been what happened.

CBP have never made themselves out to be the brightest bulbs. They're more like that flickering one that's trying to give you seizure.

The visa in his passport says cr1...there seem to always be complications when it comes to this lovely visa journey. I haven't called because frankly with two small kids running around I don't have time to sit on hold forever. A friend in a similar situation called the other day for answers and was on the phone for 3 hours and still didn't get an answer!

I guess I'll just sit around and wait...what's a few more months :(

My cousin had this issue. I scheduled an appointment with a USCIS officer at a nearby USCIS office.

You can schedule an appointment onliny. If you are not able to go to a ISCIS

You can schedule an appointment onliny. If you are not able to go to a USCIS office or it does not have any available appointments, then hiring a lawyer is your best recourse
