Here's an update on my Card replacement situation, and timeline:

5 September: received GC with data error.

11 September: I went to local USCIS office and asked for my passport to be stamped since I needed to travel. Received I-551 valid for one year with no questions asked. I didn't have to show anything except give my A#. They told me to send the I-90 to MSC (Missouri Cervice Center).

13 Semptember: sent I-90, original CARD and COPIES of evidence (like Birth Cert. etc.). I made a copy of the whole package as sent, for my records.

30 September: Letter from MSC acknowledging receipt of I-90.

20 November: Letter from MSC confirming processing completed and that new Card will be sent within 2-3 weeks.

So far so good!

Is your GC employment based or family based?
Where did you sent I-485 in past? Name of service center that approved your I-485.

Info needed so that one can understand processing of I-90. I have seen that many employment based file I-90 with service center that approved I-485
 
Ginnu,

The Missouri Cervice Center - MSC - processed my I-145 and I-90.
My AOS application was DIVERSITY VISA based (Lottery).

Thanks

5 December: Online Status changed to: Current Status: Card Mailed.

9 December: CARD RECEIVED with correct data!!

It took almost three months for the whole replacement process to complete and I'm glad it's over! And by the way, my AOS was Diversity Visa based and processed at the Missouri Service Center (MSC).

Good luck everyone
