My wife and her son entered the US on July 11th and we were told they are receiving a temporary green card. I was expecting a permanent 2 year one. What do we have to do to get them a permanent resident green card.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

If your wife received conditional residency at first, the green card is 2 years. If you have been married for more than two years, then you can apply for her to have permanent residency which I think is a 10 year green card.

"...My hair's mostly wind,

My eyes filled with grit

My skin's white then brown

My lips chapped and split

I've lain on the prairie and heard grasses sigh

I've stared at the vast open bowl of the sky

I've seen all the castles and faces in clouds

My home is the prairie and for that I am proud…

If You're not from the Prairie, you can't know my soul

You don't know our blizzards; you've not fought our cold

You can't know my mind, nor ever my heart

Unless deep within you there's somehow a part…

A part of these things that I've said that I know,

The wind, sky and earth, the storms and the snow.

Best say that you have - and then we'll be one,

For we will have shared that same blazing sun." - David Bouchard
