I thought i read somewhere that you get a 2 year Green Card if you if you have been married for less than 2 years before you file AOS and if you have been married for 2 years or more you automatically get the 10 year Green Card is this true?

it is determined based on the length of your marriage when Residency is granted not the application date.... if residency is granted prior to your 2 year wedding anniversary then you will be given a conditional card... if after then the 10 yr card

YMMV

Will you be married 2 years come May 4, 2010?

If so, you'll most like receive a 10-year green card. If not, a 2-year green card will be issued.
