Got my dros to purchase a firearm denied two weeks ago, yesterday received the DOJ letter stating that reason for denying is being illegal alien in the US, however I came to America on an immigrant visa, I have a green card, social security card, CA real ID, Driver license, just got issued an exposed firearm permit by the bureau of security and investigation services, the only thing is my GC is expired and the renewal process is pending for almost a year and a half ad of right now because the uscis is backed up, also I have an extension letter that states that this notice doesn’t guarantee any immigration status, but I had an appointment at my field office and they gave me an I-551 stamp valid for one year as a valid proof of permanent residence status instead of the having an expired GC with the extension letter. Should I appeal the decision or no?
Just an FYI, exposed firearm permit and CA real IDs only get issued for US Citizens, and lawful permanent residence. I know this might be not an immigration situation but it is related that’s why I’m looking for help
