You spoke  to  tier 1 officer. They know nothing. 
 

You will have to file I-90 to get a 10 year gc.  There is no fee for this.  
 

Before you file I-90 do the following:

 

* make an electronic copy of the front and  back of the gc 

 

* Go to SSA to get your green card

 

* Go to the  state dmv to get a REAL ID drivers license 

 

* Apply for ACA health care if you need health insurance.

As you entered the US after your second anniversary , you should have received a 10 yr GC. USCIS has made the error. As MikeE states… file an I90… no fee needed.. USCIS error.. keep copies of everything including the current GC.

100% inaccurate.  The Permanent Resident Card is a Green Card.  Some of these USCIS tier 1 people have no training at all?

Thx. Much clearer. I did reread your post and sorted it out in my head. 😁

Just now, Chene said:

On her passport it shows officer stamped the Sept 9 2022 arrival and he put ir1 underneath.

Yep. As it should be. Apply for the correct card using the I90

Did you mean ssa card? She already has the SSA card.

for question "what is your current immigration status?" i click on 'conditional pernament reident"?  and "why are you applying to replace your pernament resident card/?" i click "my current card is incorrect becuase of a department of homeland security (dhs) error?
