My passport was I-551 stamped. I left and re-entered the US after that. When I re-enter the US, the immigration officer stamped my passport with the following information:
Class: LPR ARC; Until: 1 month

I think that LPR stands for Legal Permanent Resident; ARC stands for Alien Registration Card.

I don’t understand the ‘unitl 1 month’ item. What should I do 1 within month? Do I need to leave the US before that date?

Thanks in advance
 
If you have a 551 stamp, you a PR

You can stay as long as you want.

The stamp you received on entry does not require you to leave nor does it affect your status.

You can stay as long as you want. Where is your plastic card ?
 
Thank you very much.

My passport was stamped one month ago. Still waiting for the plastic card.

I left the US right after I got the I-551. Stayed 1 month in another country.
