Hi everyone, I really hope someone might have an answer for me. 

I just arrived in the US on Cr1 last night and was told green card will be sent to our address. The officer also said I need to call USCIS3 and tell them to remove the condition but he didn't answer to my question. I arrived on the 12th of November and got married on November 24 2017.so basically almost 2 years ago. Will my green card arrive with conditions or do I need to file for removal like right now?

You will get a conditional green card. Don't submit the I-751 earlier than 08/14/2021 if you are still married at that time: https://www.uscis.gov/green-card/after-green-card-granted/conditional-permanent-residence

I read that page several times before asking my question. May I ask how you got the date and why I shouldn't submit I-751 prior that date?

You arrived in the US before your second wedding anniversary, so that's why you got a conditional green card. 

 

A conditional green card is good for 2 years before it expires.  The expiration date is 2 years after your arrival in the US - in your case 11/12/2021.  You can remove the conditions on your green card by filing the I-751.  You can apply 90 days before having the conditional green card expires.  You can not file earlier.  90 days before 11/12/2021 is 8/14/2021.

The officer gave you bad information.  

 

Since you arrived before your 2nd wedding anniversary, you will get a conditional green card.  

 

If you had delayed your immigration by 2 weeks and arrived after 11/24/2019, you would have qualified for a regular 10 years green card and avoided the cost and hassle of filing the I-751.
