Question for those that activated their visas

[wowswift 3]

Ok, since we crossed in Maine, the guy that activated our visa never did one before. Anyways, was he supposed to use the red stamp? he used the regular blue one that says "admitted" and then put CR-1 as the class, and under but a year later as the expiration date, and then wrote the A#. But also on the visa, its says "Upon endorsement serves as temporary I-551 evidencing permanent residence for 1 year"

so i guess im just wonder if its ok, or did he need the red stamp?

You are all good, mine one has blue stamp too.

Color does not matter. They provided you with an I-551 stamp which = Green-card.

Moving this to: "Moving Here and Your New Life In America" forum.
