That is a very long under consideration stamp. What Immigration Office is this?

The "under consideration stamp" is like an advance on your 1-year extension. When you go back on January 8th you'll receive the remaining year in your passport through December 9th 2026.

The 2nd thing they gave you is a TM47 receipt, which is your first 90-day notification reminder. You need to do your first 90-day report in February.
