USCIS mistake on CR-2 Visa expiration date

[Russ & Lana 1]

My step-daughter's visa shows a 10 year expiration date.  I think it should be two years.

 

Marriage date: 8/18/2020

I-130 Sent for wife and step-daughter: 9/14/2020

Wife approved and entered US: 8/11/2021   Visa expires: 8/11/2023

Step-daughter approved a few months later and entered US: 2/9/2022  Visa expires: 2/9/2032

She entered less than 2 years after the marriage, so from my understanding, her Visa should expire on 2/9/2024.

The visa is what she used to enter the US. I am assuming you mean the Green  card expires  10 yrs after the entry date. Yes they should both have been issued with 2 yr GC. File an I90 for the daughter .. no fee as it is a USCIS error. If this isn’t done there will be problems when they file to remove the conditions associated with the conditional green card

Agreed.

1. How old is your step daughter?

 

2. does your wife intend to naturalize?

 

3. what is the code on your step daughter’s GC?

1. My step-daughter was 10 years old upon entry. Now she is 12.

 

2. Yes, my wife will naturalize.  Would that change my course of action in some way?

 

3. My Step-daughter's GC shows a type of IR2.  Probably should have been CR2.  My wife's GC shows CR1 with the correct expiration.

Does not change your course of action.  File the I-90 to correct the mistake, so they both remove conditions, but when your wife Naturalizes, the daughter will receive citizenship through her mother without any Naturalization process or expense.
