Default 10yr GC instand of 2yr Conditional GC

Does anyone experience this situation?

My wife and I got married out state, and I filed I-130 few weeks after
the married date. 4 months after our wedding, she got all the paper
work and entered to US with her GC# issued. One month after she is
here, she recived the GC and the card has 10 yr on it - NOT 2 yr
conditional!!! Does that mean we don't need to apply for I-751 to
chage the GC status???

Any experts' advise?

Thanks

No, it's a mistake on USCIS' part. In 2 years, go ahead and apply to have conditions removed. Don't bother trying to fix the current card. Just make sure you don't miss the deadline for removing the conditions. Even though they made the mistake, you are responsible for the correct immigration procedure.

Best Wishes,
Rene

Will they mail out any notice on or about the time when I need to file
I-751 from USCIS?

Probably not. Keep track of the dates yourself, and file when appropriate.
