You are right, but I think they would warn me if they cancelled my current card. And I also keep the letter which shows they approved my GC ... But yea still waiting another mail from them. it should explain process clearly . Maybe as you tell me , they will say , We cancelled your current card , go local Immigration office and get stamp on your passport until you receive your new card..

Im gonna wait...

Have you been mailing them or emailing them? Why not call them and speak to a supervisor directly? You could get things answered in an hour as opposed to several days of waiting on correspondence. 

 

Don't trust them to tell you that your current card has been cancelled - things like that "get lost in the mail" all the time, or they assume you were aware. Call and find out what your situation is - it's far too important to wait for the communications team to sift through your letter.

Trust the too well-known USCIS (Mis)Information and Customer (Dis)service telephone line response? Take it for what it is, and wait for the hard copy verification. 🙂

Hello Guys,

 

So I checked my status online ( I made a account to fiil my I-9o form online) so they sent me a letter for biometriz appointments .I did not receive it yet but should be here in a couple day.

 

as summary,

1- I realized my first Green card is for 10 years instead of 2 years

2- I called uscis and let them know. 

3- They sent me an email and said '' we will review your green card and let you know what you need to do 

4- Almost in a month , they sent me a letter .. it was saying ''fill I-90 Fornm on uscis .gov/efilling

5- I filled my I-9o form online. I took my green card picture and pasted on website and submitted.

6- they let me know they received my I-90 form by email.

7- Now, they sent me a letter for biometric appointment.

 

7/15/2019 2 pm, I will go again for finger print and photo.. they want my greend card too.. I dont know if they are gonna take it or not....If they take it, I think I will be needed stamp on my passport for a year instead of green card (I think)..

 

by the way I have not been out of USA during this time...

 

I will write each improvements untill I get my 2 year green card.

 

Thank you all

Hey, what happened? We are in the exact same situation where we got a 10 year CG instead of a 2 year one, and we are super curious how your issue was resolved. Any update will be appreciated :)
