This is my story.i got married in april 2009 filed for adjustment of status ,had my interview 4.20.2010.the Io that interviewed us was pretty mean but I brushed that off. he said he will approve the case.waited and waited no greencard, until 9 months later. on the greencard it says 4.20.2011,so I was thinking well he approved us that date and it took 9months for me to get it.i filed to remove the condition 90 days before it expires and I was granted the 10yrs greencard. I applied for my citizenship this year in june2013 and got an interview date for September 19,2013.ok so I was happy,went to the interview,waited over 2 hours,didnt bother me because they were behind and had computer issues.anyways my name was called and the lady said both me and husband and kids should all come in.went in the office,was there for about 20 minutes because they had more computer issues, the IO said they must have picked up the new system from a garage sale,i just laughed and waited for another 20minutes.anyways she asked my husband and I to stand and tswear ij etc. .she gave me the civic test and I answered the first 6 correctly and did the reading and writing correctly and she asked me questions on my application.everything went well at that moment,then she took my file up and she got quiet and said well this is why they pay me the big box to tell you this,i was like what is she talking about,anyways she said,well I have to deny your case,its not your fault but ours.on your greencard it says 4.20.2011 and I understand that you applied the time that you should BUT!!! the IO that interviewed you for your greencard was new and had no idea what he was doing so he forgot to put the 4.20.2010 date in your file on that date,instead he put the date in 9months later ,so therefore you applied for your citizenship 9months too early and because you removed your 2 year greencard conditional card the time you did,that was also early. I was shocked,i just started to cry.i mean they made the mistake and waited until I went for my citizenship to tell me this.she said that's how the system is they don't actually go through all the file until they reach the citizenship step.so I asked what do I do now,she said she doesn't know what to tell me but its not my fault and I would just have to sit and wait for a denial letter and refile for my greencard and citizenship!!! are you serious!! I came this far and have to redo my entire immigration process because of there mistake.she said well to make you feel better,he did this to couple hundred people!! .I don't know how that gonna make me feel better thou.so now am here not knowning what to do.i contacted lawyers and waiting for a call back.i don't have the offiical denial letter in hand,i checked online to see if they updated my case but they haven't, so depressing that they did this and wont fix it,ooh and to make matters worst,my husband told me he saw the guy that messed up my papers just sitting relaxing in his office.im so glad I didn't see him because I definitely would have a little chat with him.so pissed!!!
