Good news, received new 10 year green card after waiting 9.25 months. Applied in September for i 90 replacement. Much faster than expected! My question is I applied online and it didn't ask me to return the 2 year green card that was sent in error? Where do I send it back or do I keep it until applying for citizenship in a few years when eligible?

It wasn't for AOS. OP successfully adjusted, but received wrong card. I-90 was filed to replace it.

 

10 year card renewal can be quick, but can also take 9-12 months.

I wish it took 9-12 months. It's been 19 months for me and no update yet.

Sadly, it does take a long while for some I-90.

Any plans to naturalize? Most likely, you would have been a citizen by now if you filed N-400 at the time you filed I-90. And with N-400 you would have gotten 24 months extension for your GC for free.

Thankfully extension has not been a problem as there was an automatic extension period of two years for Green Cards while Form I-90 applications are pending, that has now been increased to three years so I am good till May 2027.  Though with everything going on, having a valid card would be helpful. Can't give up my Indian citizenship yet (India doesn't allow dual citizenship) due to some property laws in India and some other matters. Once those are settled, it will be time for N-400.
