Hi there,

I received my green card in 2007 and I just noticed recently that they've entered the wrong country on it! The country is kinda under a stamp and is spelled a lot like my country this is why it took me all 4 years to notice.

I'm about to move from Florida to California in April 2012 and I know that I have to send my original green card with the I-90 for a replacement card. The thing is I'll be looking for a job in California as soon as I move there, and will need my green card. I read that it makes 3 to 6 months for a replacement card. Should I wait until I move and get a job before I send my original green card with the application? What are my options?

I also might travel to the Bahamas at the end of this month, can I do that with a green card with the wrong country on it?

Any help would be much appreciated, thank you!

Eliette.

Does it bother you that much?

I would just take care of this at the Removals of Condition or naturalization stage.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

No it doesn't bother me that much. I just thought that it's required to have the correct information on the green card. Anyway, if I wait for the naturalization process, how do I take care of that then? Don't I have to fill our the I-90 anyway?
