I filed for ROC in September 2016. I got an approval email in February 2018 and my 10 year card in the mail. My USCIS online account also recorded that case history. This card has an expiry date for Feb 2028. 

 

I moved in July 2018 and changed my address on the USCIS website on July 10. On July 26, USCIS sent me a NOA saying my Green card ROC was still pending and that my conditional status was extended for another 18 months. This was sent to my old address. 

 

In August, they sent me a new green card to my old address. The new card is virtually identical, except now its a 10 year card that expires August 2018. Also has a different i551 no in the back (top left). My resident since date remains the same. 

 

USCIS online account doesnt have a record of the new card or approval NOA

 

I guess there are 2 issues - my address isnt updated on their system, and now I have 2 green cards with different expiration dates. My Alien number and resident since date is the same. 

 

I imagine this is new territory for most people so educated guesses on my situation and what I should do are welcome. I am tempted to do nothing as I have a receipt from USCIS confirming my changed address from July, and my A-number and resident since info is correct on both cards. I read about the recall issue for some people because they had the wrong resident since date printed on their cards, but thats not the case with me and I didnt get  recall notice either. Has anyone else had this issue?

I would escalate to USCIS because that could be a potential issue when you decide to file for N400. Why not ensure you avoid all of that drama.
