Immigration Forum / USA Marriage Base / May 2006

For those of you who remember (particularly Meauxna), I was the one who
was married on July 1, 2002, had my AOS interview on December 23, 2004
and due to screw ups (fingerprinting not done right) and basically being
put on the back burner for 18 months, I then received my conditional
card dated July 7, 2004. Ok so I went back into the local office and
told them they must have made a mistake. I should be getting a 10 year
card based on being given approval after my 2nd wedding anniversary. The
Supervisor went through the spiel about how there is nothing in black
and white stating that I have to be given a 10 year card and until it
clearly states it in the law, they will continue to issue the 2 year
card no matter the length of marriage. Their lawyer says they were
within their right to do so.

So on April 23, 2006 I sent paperwork into Nebraska to have conditions
removed. It was all sent back to me today (minus Acclo fastener) and
paperwork all mixed up with the following letter:

The Nebraska Serice Center is returning your Form I-751 and any
supporting documents. If the date of marriage indicated on your I-751
Part 3 is correct, you have have been improperly classified as a
Conditional Resident upon entry or adjustment and that this filing would
then not be required. You will need to bring this letter to your local
office for review of your classification. If it is determined that you
are not subject to the conditional residency requirement, your local
office will process a new Permanent Resident Card with the correct
classification at that time.

Ok so now I have to make an appointment and hopefully get this cleared
up locally. Does anyone know if this letter will take precedent over
what the local office told me above?
