Received CR1 visa instead of 1r1. Marriage over two years. How can this be corrected?

My husband received his visa but was stamped CR1 instead of 1r1? How can it be corrected?

I don't know much about this I just wanted to congratulate you on the visa!!  I know you had a rough road.  So happy for you!!

 

Have him show the marriage certificate at POE if that doesn't work you can rectify it with the help of an attorney.  I'm not sure if adjustment of status after 90 days would do the trick someone else here will probably know more.

Thanks.  We have been married over three years now.  We have met the requirement.

He should report  it to the CBP agent at his port of entry.

 

Congratulations on this long and tough journey.

Yeah, don’t worry about the category on the visa, the difference between the date of marriage and date he enters US on that visa matters, which will definitely be more than 2 years. So he will receive a 10 yr GC after entering US.

Your case makes me hopeful! I received my response from USCIS and they have sent the case back to the Embassy in Senegal. Seeing your timeframe from the appeal decision to the issuance is about 4 months, I am gauging myself on that for us to hear something for scheduling (but you never know).

Congratulations again! Now time to live life, something so many people who don't go through this process seriously take for granted.

Congrats!
