Hello there guys!!!!!!!
I just realized there is another person beside myself receiving letter from NSC to replace BACKDATED GC due to incorrect residence since date.
Are there any more people out there who received same latter asking for correction of backdated GC?
Could this be one of NSC internal errors?
The law clearly says that refugees are getting their GC backdated to the date of their arrival in US and asylees are getting their GC backdated one year before permanent resident status approval (Sec 209 a and 209 b)
Please post so we can figure out what's going on!!!!
Thank you!!!!!!!!
Gurus pls post what you think , this is obviously an error, what do you think?

Plz read the post by man39 and don't clutter the forum by more posts. I have posted the answer over there. Anymore comments are welcome
 
Thank you very much LAZERTHEGREAT and sorry, I did not mean to "bomb" the forum with new threads, I am just concerned (you should understand why) and would like to know what caused this issue. Exchanging informations between us all could only help us shed at least a little bit of light on the NEVERENDING STUPIDITY of CIS people.
 
unless some congressman slipped in a provision to amend this without anyone noticing, this is a clear internal USCIS error. I did a quick search on LEXIS-NEXIS and did not find anything.

Just send the notice back with a print out of section 209(b) of the INA.

thanks for doing search on lexis-nexis... Law students are good resource to this forum..
 
Response from the USCIS

Did anyone return his/her GC to the USCIS to correct 'residence since date' and get it back yet? My friend went to the local office to show them that the date is correct and they took the GC from him to return it to Nebraska.

thanks,
 
My husband sent his GC because it is not backdated.
We will wait 3 weeks and see what will happen.
Hope we will get his GC back.
 
section 209(b)

how can I find section 209(b)
So far, I have not received a litter from uscis about replace since date. I plan travel my home country in January. I've already book my airplan ticket and set my vaction . If I received that notice next week, I don't have enouth time wait my GC back.
Does that notice has a limit day sent GC back?
please help !

where did you receive your green card? Are you sure you want to trave to your home country for a "vacation"? It could be very dangerous.

Back again to this "do not go back to your home country" thing! Once you adjust that's it! Things do change, so let's say that the situation in Lazer’s (used here as an example only) country changes to a better one, does that mean the INS will revoke Lazer's residency? Of course not.

Again, we are all waiting on someone who did return to their home country after adjusting their status and then faced problems upon their return. On the contrary, many have traveled back w/no problem.

Did not mean to get off the subject, but this thing is getting out of hand :cool: !
 
and to add to what bringslite... if you think after Citizenship you can go back easily.
Actually, you record with INS remains for ever ,no matter what your current status. If they want they dig into your case anytime and question you regarding your visit to home country (even after citizenship). Though then they cannot revoke your citizenship but you could be prosecuted for fraud ( yeah...what are the odds of this)

The point i am trying to make here is once you get your GC the risk if any, of going back to home country is same today and after 10 years. So, if there is a genuine reason go otherwise be prepared to justify the visit throughout your life.

No.

Actually barring unusual factors they in general do not "prosecute" people because of the high burden of proof they need to meet and the fact that they need to hand the case over to the US attorney's office (DHS has to power to "prosecute').

But they do have ample administrative power to reopen an immigration case. The burden of proof is relatively low for them to revoke LPR status or asylum status. LPR status is to some extent a misnomer becuase it can be lost so easily (relatively speaking). Citizenship on the other hand is a different ball bark--revoking a grant of naturalization is a very difficult for them to do.

This is based on my previously work experience where I saw the USCIS take adverse action against real LPRs people. This is not speculation or wild guess.

wait minute ...blackbird you confuse me now.
you don't have no advance parole yet?
so how did you plan to travel to you homecountry?
are you plan to use N.P. with G.C.?
I know you have good excuse for your trip ... but I don't know about using G.C. with AS6 code...remember you can be arrested in you country airport.
I think you green card still good for travel because is not revoked by the immigration and naturalisation sevice.. but don't take no chance ask a lawyer about that.

Thank you Jubilee
I have an appointment next week, I will going to local office try apply a Advance parole. can I get A P on the spot?
what's reason I apply AP?(Just tell them I go back my persecution country pick up my son and I can't show airport custom my as6 GC?)
I have another idea, my airline is from my country to korea to LAX, I already apply korea visa, I can show airline my AS6 GC, but I tell custom I am going to korea. I have two tickets. one to korea, one korea to LAX. what do you thing? I hear about that as6 GC got arrested by airport, but that is entry persecution country, they need pay attention who hold AS GC. if you leaving, I think have no problem. all those are my opinion. I don't know right or wrong.
Just give me you opinion. thank you
I never ask a lawyer because they don't know anything, they just make money from you. I think I never met a good lawyer.
