Green Card Expiry Date

 Share

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone! 

I came to USA on CR1 visa on Dec 10, 2018. 
CBP stamped my passport for Dec 10, 2018 and Under this date, the Until date he wrote is Dec 09, 2020. (Means visa is valid until Dec 09, 2020)
However when I received my green card, it says

Resident Since: 12/10/18
Card Expires: 12/10/20

 So, my question is why there is different date on my passport i.e. Dec 09, 2020 but On green card it says Dec 10, 2020. 
Shouldn’t both dates be same? 

Thank you

The I-551 stamp issued by CBP in your passport is valid until 12/09/2020     <<< this is sort of moot now that you have your physical green card.   

 

Green card issued by USCIS is valid as stated, and is what matters now.

Your stamped visa was good for 1 year, until your green card arrived.  
You have received a 2-yr conditional green card, and the stamp on your passport is no longer relevant.

Oh I know about that it is valid for 1 year and since I got a green card it is irrelevant now. Anyway my question was, on stamp CBP officer wrote valid till Dec 09, 2020. 
However, my green card says expiration date dec 10, 2020.

You're overthinking things and worrying too much. The green card has the dates on it. The passport stamp has no meaning anymore.

Just file for ROC within 90 days before it expires and you're fine.

Your passport stamp should have expired 2019 not 2020.
 

Your green card accurately reflects your entry date and two-yr expiration from that date.

But my passport stamp which was stamped by CBP says Until: Dec 09, 2020. Anyway I checked a pic on google a person came on CR1 visa on Aug 24, 2008 and his stamp says Until: Aug 23, 2010. 
same like me. Thanks anyway.

To put it simply ....  Move on!  Forget about this date and that date.  

 

The green card RULES!
