My experience of entering the US with expired Green Card and NOA paper:
1. Standing in a lane for US citizens and residents, I moved fast to the immigration officer. He looked on my passport, expired Green Card, and NOA and send me to the passport office where the line moved very slowly :-( Finally, an officer checked my paper and some computer screen (I guess he accessed my status online) and then admitted me to the US.
2. The second officer told me when giving my NOA back to me: "Don't forget to send the paper (the NOA) back when you receive the new Green Card." I have never heard or read that people were supposed to send their NOA back to the USCIS when they received their 10-year Green Card. Am I ignorant or was the second officer?
