I'll probably call tomorrow to USCIS but I'll put the question out here.

Any of you guys had an extension on an extension before or heard of it? I say this because I think thats what I got right now because I withdrew my original I-751 and put in a new one. My green card was extended from March last year to this year based on the original application. Now that I have another application accepted does this extend it based on the first extension....... :blink: yea.....work that one out!

Thanks for your thoughts in advanced!

Oh! Boy. That's a hard one. I don't know the answer, better ask USCIS itself or consult a lawyer. :blush:

The extension only extends the green card from the expiry date on the green card - not the date on the extension letter, so having a secoond extension letter still only extends the green card date by one year. You need to carry the NOA and the green card together. So, if you are nearing the expiry of the one year extension on your green card, make an Infopass appointment and have them put the I-551 stamp into your passport to extend your status further. In that case, your status will be extended for the year from the date on the I-551 stamp and not the original green card date.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

.― Lucy Maude Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

Thanks for the help guys.

I called USCIS and they said that the new application extension letter does add another year to the GC based on the original extension letter. If I go out the country I would need to take both letters of extension as well as the GC.

Though just to be safe I will make an Info Pass appointment to get the I-551 Stamp in the passport. :thumbs:
