Like I said, my I-90 was approved VERY quickly and my experience is an outlier, not the norm. General estimated processing times for I-90 can be found on the USCIS website and I believe it averages 10-14 months?

 

As for I-751, yes, you may receive the 10-year green card without an interview. You MAY not even have to do biometrics, depending on the pandemic next year. After you file I-751, all you have to do is wait. Most people file N400 as soon as they're eligible, even if their I-751 is still pending. Usually, USCIS will do a joint interview to resolve both I-751/N400 simultaneously but this is not completely guaranteed. I've seen some stories of people doing the N400 interview but then being told that a decision cannot be made because their I-751 file was not delivered to the field office in time or some other reason. I've also seen some people wait until their I-751 is resolved first before applying for N400 for this reason, but the decision is ultimately yours. Personally, I'm going to apply for N400 next year as soon as I'm eligible.

Thanks, well I sure hope it doesn't take 10-14 months to get a new Greencard for their error. We plan to do the same with the N400.

No worries. I'm not sure what exactly is going on with field offices and trying to schedule appointments over there right now, but I strongly suggest doing what you can to get the I-551 stamp in your wife's passport. They can only do this at the field office (unfortunately). The I-551 stamp holds the same power as a physical green card and can be used to prove legal status and employment authorization to employers.

Thanks I have seen this suggested, what is that process? To get it started?

Due to COVID, the appointment system has changed. My suggestion is to file I-90 first and obtain the receipt notice. After that, it looks like you'll have to call the USCIS Contact Center to schedule an appointment at your local field office. Tell them what happened with your wife's card, give them the I-90 receipt number and insist on scheduling an appointment to get the I-551 stamp in her passport as proof of her resident status. If they get difficult, you can always request to elevate your request and ask for a Tier 2 representative.

Yup, getting ADIT stamp is definitely a good plan.

 

Also, as a plan B I assume OP's wife already has state DL or ID and a regular unrestricted SSN card:

With those 2 documents she can travel domestically, work, etc.

Guys on the I 90 ‘Date of admission’ question 15 what do I put? The residence since is wrong on my green card, I believe it should be 8/23/2019 from the below statement from me earlier in the post. 

 

“Shortly after the Greencard interview on 8/23/2019 we received a NOA I-797 that our I-485 AOS was approved with the Notice Date of 8/23/2019.”

Isn't that supposed to be the date she entered the US?

I would put the date the adjustment was approved.

Also in part 2 application type, what do I put here for a k1 on 2 year green card? Three choices:

permanent residence- in commuter status 

 

conditional permanent residence

I edited.....TFor question 15, the instructions say "Item Number 15. Date of Admission. Provide the date on which you were granted lawful permanent resident or conditional permanent resident status in mm/dd/yyyy format.  I would put the date the adjustment was aproved. 08/23/2019

I think I would select "conditional permanent residence"

Yeah I’m going with conditional and I’m going to use 8/23/2019 the date of my greencard interview was approved and NOA for AOS I 485 was approved on 8/23/2019, I believe this is actually what supposed to as the residence since date on the greencard which mine was wrong
