Hi there,

I was just asked, what was the purpose of your trip, what are you bringing, welcome to the US.

The same hassle they give to the USC, they give to the LPR, which is none :), unless she/he stayed for 1 yr or more and is bringing some fruits , vegetables, animals etc that are prohibited by customs.

Usually they do not ask many questions at the POE, but sometimes it is similar to the Consulate interview. Like they ask what will you do in USA, who is your petitioner, what do they do in USA, how long have you known each other, how did you meet, etc.

I'm traveling to Manila tomorrow with my greencard stamp, the temporary I-551 ADIT stamp. Has anyone traveled with the stamp before?

I haven't...however the stamp is the same as having a green card. You won't have any different questions. You're lucky (as I was) that you got the stamp so that you can travel prior to the GC coming in the mail.

Have a safe trip!

They will ask how long the LPR was out of the country to make sure that the LPR does not need the re-entry permit (for stays longer than 1 year).

Hi Carla,

Question, can I travel with my unexpired GC? It's expiring on Aug. 2, 2008 but I have a pending I-751 and I am physically divorced. Do you think it's an issue coming back to the US?

Thanks,

Sim
