You probably don't need this info anymore but

They need to determine his lawful permanent resident (greencard) date and the POE code on the card. As an L nonimmigrant did you all adjust? It might actually be an office code if you adjusted here.

It is good that you are getting your child's status updated with USCIS. Filing the N-600 gets them to update their computer and well, government computer talk to each other. Have you gheard of E-Verify for employers to check new hire's eligibility to work. The SAVE system is used by benefit granting agencies in local areas for medicaid, medical, TANF, food stamps, or schools or student loan organizations might check for status.

And if he ever got in trouble with the law later in life, having his staus available to ICE and CBP would preveny immigration detention or deportation A bunch of young adults find out the hard way that having a question as to their citizenship can have them going before and Immigration judge.

Tell all your friends.
