Felt like AOS was never over...

[JoJoJoJo 170]

As soon as I received my green card, I found something wrong with it, and file I90 immediately 1.5 years ago. Currently I have an I551 Stamp on my passport, which will expire in 3-4 weeks.

Now I am hopeful to get a new job offer in a week or so. After giving my employer a two-week notice, I am hopeful to start the new job in 3-4 weeks. But around the same time, my I551 stamp will expire. I am really anxious about the job transition due to the I9 process.

Currently I do not have an unrestricted SSN card, a driver's license, or a state ID. I only have a conditional green card with incorrect expiration date, according to which it has expired. I filed I90 1.5 years ago, and it is still pending. I have an I551 stamp on my passport, which will expire in 3-4 weeks.

What should I do?

Can I ask my next employer to verify my immigration status before starting the new job (before the I551 stamp expires)?

Can I request an InfoPass now for a new stamp for I9 purpose? Will they let me given that the current step has not expired?

Can I ask my next employer to use my I90 receipt as proof for I9 purpose?

Appreciate your thoughts!

I-90 processing time is 6-14 months for replacement. have you tried opening a query with USCIS ?

 

Technically your green card wont expire until its denied.

 

you should be able to get an infopass to get a new stamp.

Yeah, I opened an inquiry, and was told to just wait. That was 3 months ago.

 

I just found the table in the I9 instruction (https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-9instr.pdf). The highlighted part says one can also use a receipt for I9 purpose. The problem is that my card was not lost, stolen, or damaged. My card has a typo due to USCIS error... Anyone has the experience of using I90 receipt?

 

Going to the USCIS office to get another stamp will be my last resort .
