Hello,

My wife she lost her GC while she is in India.I saw ur site it is realy helpful. In addition to that, I have a question.

Her I485 got approved last april 2002 and her passport is got stamped with adjustment of status which is valid for 1 year (till april 2003).

Is it ok to use that stamping to get into US without going to local Consulate in India? Please let me know your suggestions. She is really in big confused status.

Your timely help is Appreciated.

From your FAQ:
"You can apply for a replacement of permanent resident card by filing an INS Form I-90.
For obtaining the said form call the INS Forms line at 1-800-870-3676 or request it online <"http://ww.ins.gov/graphics/formsfee/forms/index.htm">
File the application with supporting documentation and required fees in person at the local INS office serving the area where you live.
If you are outside the U.S. and have lost your alien registration card, contact the nearest American Consulate, INS Office or Port of entry before attempting to file a Form I-90.
If your Form I-90 application is approved, you will be mailed a replacement Permanent Resident Card (Form I-551) with a ten-year expiration date from the date of issuance. ":confused:
