Hi folks,

 

So I was wrongly assigned a CR1 green card even though I was eligible for a 10 year IR1 Card at POE and I have started an i90 application to get this corrected. Now this process may take many months and in the meantime my CR1 expiration date will approach. My question here is that when this date does come by will an automatic removal process be initiated against me ? since till the i90 process to correct my status hasn’t completed, I assume I would be classified as a CR1 resident in the USCIS database ? If anyone who has been in this scenario here or come across a case like this - it would be great if you can tell us of your experience.

This is incorrect. IR-1 is based on POE date, not issuance of the visa.  If POE is after 2 year wedding anniversary, IR-1 is appropriate.

You correct this with an I-90, not an infopass appointment.  It's their mistake, so don't pay a fee.

Incorrect. You can be issued a CR-1 visa but be become an LPR with a 10 year green card fine.   https://www.uscis.gov/green-card/after-green-card-granted/conditional-permanent-residence/remo

No. You are an LPR entitled to an unconditional green year green card. The fact that you have a conditional two year green card is USCIS' fault, not yours. 

 

As long as you file your I-90 specifically seeking a corrected ten year unconditional green card then you should be fine, and can obtain I-551 passport stamps on that basis. The stamps will probably last for around a year each.

Hey everyone - it’s been a while since I’ve been back here. The last update was that we had applied to get my CR1 card corrected to IR1 since we had completed 2 years at the POE. Here’s an update - I got a denial decision notice online on the 21st of September but no letter - as advised by the online notification I raised a request for a copy on the 6th of October but no letter still. The online request said that I will be getting the communication by the 29th of ocotober so there are a few more days left. I am worried though as to what the letter will say - any clues ? I assume it’ll say that i have to apply to get my conditions removed but by when since at the time of applying for the correction I was provided a one year CR1 stamp on my passport which goes on till March 2019. ( my original CR1 period ended April 2018).
