Strange letter from lawyers

Hi All,

Last week I got the email that my greencard was approved. Earlier this week I received the physical card.

Today I got a letter from the lawyers, they forwarded the approval that was sent to them, and included a cover sheet saying I had to go to the INS office with 2 photos, my passport and my I-94. My understanding is that while you CAN go to the office to get a greencard stamp, you only do that if you need to travel before you get the physical card.

Since I already have my card, can I just disregard the foolish lawyers? They have been disorganized all along, and even told me to register for selective service, and I am nowhere near 18-26. I think I may have just gotten a form letter that doesnt apply to me.

Any thoughts?

Challenge them on it and let them know you have the card. Sometimes their clerical staff will just blindly follow some set procedure that doesn't apply to everybody.

Nowadays, the USCIS offices won't give you the passport stamp if they know you have the card.

Absolutely. There are too many attorneys who are just glorified form fillers.
 
They are at least a year behind the latest developments on GC approva procedure.

You don't need to get the stamp as you have gotten your plastic card already.

Good luck

Most green cards are being processed automatically, and sent out, there are some offices that are still following the old process.
