Stamped AM in Passport

[DAVID.PHERSON]

I am a LPR and while coming back to the US immigration officer at Chicago stamped AM in class field on my passport. I am used to LPR but what does this AM stand for?

Thanks

Usually a note of "ARC" is made which you might have misread as "AM". ARC is "Alien Registration Card".

Thanks but I am neither.

I too think it is "ARC". What was the POE?

No it clearly says "AM"
