Correcting an expired GC after submission of I-751
My wife's GC has on country of origin "Palestine (Born before 1948).
In all the paperwork, we wrote "West Bank" and when offered the option "Palestinian Authority".
When the GC came with "Palestine (Born before 1948)", we thought it meant that it was some geopolitical way of saying, it was called Palestine before 1948.
When we went to the biometric appointment, my wife was asked about this and she said that this was the GC given to us. They did not advise us to apply for replacement and said "pick Israel or Jordan", so she picked Jordan and she requested to put a note that her actual GC has Palestine born before 1948 on it, but electronically changed it to Jordan in the USCIS system.
She went to the DMV to renew her learning permit, they refused her GC with the I-797 extension, and asked her to get the I-551 stamp or replace her GC.
My question: Can you replace an expired GC for correction purposes after it expired while you are pending I-751? Does this interfere with the I-751 process?
My processing center is Vermont, we are at point where it says finger prints were taken. Sep 6, 2019.
