About Form I-90

[coolguy_11]

Thanks God. After 4 years of waiting I finally received my card this morning.


Unfortunately the card is not backdated. I am ready to file form I-90 to get it corrected. According to the form I need to provide the following

1. A letter explaining where the error is on my card;
2. My Green Crad
3. Supporting documents

What kind of supporting documents do they need? Can anybody tell me something about that? Or anyone with the same situation, or ever filed I-90 before?

Thanks in adavance

Four years? Are you counting from the day you got your Asylum?

I'm not in your situation but I can only assume they would need a copy of original grant of asylum whether it was a judgement or a Final Approval letter showing you are an asylee. Maybe a copy of your first I-94 showing date of Asylum granted and maybe a copy of your receipt for the I-495 application.

Anyone else care to weigh in?

4 years from asylum granted to GC is not bad at all. I guess USCIS is moving faster in that aspect at least. Congrats for your GC error and all at least you are a LPR...

 

[thankful]

What is the resident since date on the card?

If there is an error of the kind you described, you need to enclose a print out of the law authorizing the backdating.

print this off and send it in:
