Hello!
I received my green card based on marriage to a USC. We went to the interview and were told that my name check was pending. Two months later it cleared and I received the green card. However, when I received it the PR since date was listed on the card as the date USCIS received my AOS application (3/06), not the date my I-485 was approved 6 months later (9/06).
I went to the local DO and they printed out their computer log for my A# and it showed a PR since date of 3/06 - just like the card. I explained what I thought the problem was and the IO looked at me like I was stupid and said everything is fine. I left it at that.
I applied for removal of conditions on PR in 1/08 (90 days before the expiration of my card) and that was approved no questions asked. The 10 year green card arrived and it had the same 3/06 PR since date that the previous green card had -not 9/06.
I've traveled on the green card without a problem. Now I'm coming to apply for citizenship and I'm not sure when to apply.
Any advice, thoughts or comments would be appreciated!!
Thanks!!
