Back in December my wife received a NOA extending her conditional permanent resident status for a year. She had her bio-metrics appointment in January. She is scheduled to travel to Colombia with my daughter to Colombia on Thursday. I just assumed that she could travel with her expired resident card and the NOA extension letter. Now that the travel day is coming close I am in a panic, is there any reason why she wouldn't be able to travel on the extension letter?

if thats what the one year extension says your safe to traval, bring your old permanent resident,and your extension letter, a copy of your marriage certificate if name change,all will be needed on the return trip at the poe.when going to colombia you brough the airline tickets in your name that has to match your colombian passport right.you should be hearing some thing real soon from the uscis, did you register for check case status online,have a nice trip.

I travelled twice with my extension letter, without any problems.

I just needed to show the letter, my expired GC, and my passport.

It'll be fine! :)

And if you are still worried,then you should contact your local office and get a stamp into your passport...But as said above...expired GC and 1year extension letter,passport and marriage certificate are good enough..

The extension letter has the function of a new YEAR sticker on a vehicle license plate. It's only for the airline people and other drones who may have an interest in someone's lawful presence or permission to travel to the United States.

When your wife arrives back in the US and CBP swipes her Green Card at the airport, the DHS computer already recognizes the extended validity of her Card electronically, with or without the letter. It's all computerized now.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

Yes. we live at the Canadian border and travel very frequently to Canada. Alla went many times with her expired green card with the letter and never had a problem entering Canada or returning to the US. International travel is fine.
