My wife received her two year conditional green card in the mail today on 9/27/13. She is so happy, mainly because we are going on vacation back to the Philippines in October and will not have to worry about getting back in the country...lol.

I do have one question, on the green card it states that she has been a resident since 9/19/12. However she arrived in the USA on 9/8/12. Is this something that I should be worried about?

Thank you for your responses in advance.

It is incorrect. It should be the date her green card was approved, not the date she entered the US. The date her green card was approved is the date she became a permanent resident. You need contact the USCIS and send in an I-90 to get it corrected.

It should be the date she entered the US.

My hubby and our kids' 10-year green cards all show the date at POE which is Dec 26, 2011. So they are residents since Dec 26, 2011.

Hmmmm.

The OP entered on a K-1 visa and applied for adjustment of status. When entering on a K-1, you do not become a permanent resident until the adjustment of status has been approved. A K-1 is a non-immigrant visa and does not give you permanent residency upon entrance. The date on their green card should be the date their green card was approved, NOT when they entered the US,

Was your wife on K1 visa when she entered the US? If yes, then the date of her GC is incorrect .

No worries. She came here on a visa CR1. She became a resident after she entered the country on that visa. This is the way it works

for a K-1 visa holder? Really? uh unh, no.

I think the date is wrong.

It should tie back to the approval date, not the date you mention, of 9/19/2012 .

Please take another look at the card, tell us the first date printed on the card?

There should be 2 dates. While yer at it, give us the two dates.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !

Ok, then it is not incorrect. It is supposed to be from the date of approval, not from last year when she entered the US. You have no issues and congrats!
