Folks,
My GC had an error. Today, I went along to Newark to get it fixed. They had my country of citizenship as my country of birth.
It was a ridiculously SLOW process !! Got in @ 8 am (infopass) and was out @ 3 p.m.
No fees since it was their mistake. I got a 2nd stamp with the first one "CWP", i.e. cancelled without prejudice. The 2nd stamp is valid for a year from today. It also states "I-90 filed 01/25/05"
What a pain, especially given that it was their mistake. They kept the old GC with the error.
I hope I receive the new GC soon and NOT after 1 yr !!!
