2 year CR1 green card instead of 10 year

[Mil123 10]

Hi all,

 

I have just received my green card in the post and it is a 2 conditional card not the 10 year card like I expected. I arrived in the USA the day after my second wedding anniversary so I’m confused as to why it’s a CR1. Does anyone know if I’m able to do anything to get this mistake fixed? I purposely waited until after the 2 year anniversary so we wouldn’t have to go through removing the conditions. The date I’ve been a resident since is the day I arrived in the states so I’m not sure what’s going on. 
 

There seemed to be issues with the biometrics and I had to go to a USCIS application centre for a new picture but I’m not sure if that would have anything to do with the current issue. 
 

Thanks!

You will have to file an I-90 for a corrected green card.  It's free of charge because it is a USCIS error.  File the I-90 online and submit a copy of your marriage certificate, entry stamp and the mistakenly issued CR1 green card.  It says to submit the actual defective green card but I would just submit a copy and hold on the original for now so you still have proof of lawful presence.  Whenever they are ready to start moving on correcting their error they would issue a RFE for return of the defective card.
