He can travel with his original expired green card and the original I-751 NOA which acts as a one year extension to his green card. He must carry the original extension letter though, not a copy.

Recently, I have travelled to my home country and back with the I-751 NOA and had no problems. Both here and abroad, officers and airline clerks seemed pretty familiar with that document.

PS: biometrics letter not necessary, just the one that starts with "your card has been extended for 1 year" (NOA)

I would agree with prior responses. We are awaiting ROC approval. My wife's conditional GC expired in November. Over the weekend, my wife and I drove up to Richmond, BC from Seattle, WA. We took our passports, her expired GC, and a plastic page saver containing the original I-797 ROC receipt (1 year extension letter) and a copy of our marriage license. Going each way at the Blaine border crossing, the customs officers (Canadian and US) wanted to see the extension letter and seemed quite familiar with the process. We had an enjoyable trip with no hassles.

YMMV.

Good luck on your immigration journey.

I am traveling to Mexico in a week and i am just a little uneasy because the United airline personnel in Mexico city previously denied my access to board when i had my EAD card. This happened about 2 years ago when the EAD card (AKA combo card) was kind of new and they made me go to the embassy to get a letter from the USCIS office in the Mexican embassy. It was such a hassle because i was literally standing outside the US embassy in Mexico with no appointment or anything. I pretty much told the guard at the front entrance my situation, he went back into the building and after 2 hrs i was able talk to someone at the USCIS office in the embassy and they just ran my info in the system and they issued a sealed letter which i had to show to the United airlines clerk in order to board. The USCIS officer was very nice and he told me he wasn't sure why they didn't let me board. The only thing he could think of was them not having the updated booklets where the employees at airlines check what documents are needed to travel. When I got to the counter after two days of being stuck in Mexico city. It appeared that the United airlines personnel did not have the updated booklet. Evidently, i was furious with the people at United airlines and they let me board with this letter they made me go and get at the embassy.

My concern is the airline personnel (United Airline) not being informed again and them giving me trouble to board. I have read many posts that just by showing your NOA that shows your one year extension along with your expired GC is enough. I have read that others get an info pass stamp just as an extra precaution. I have my NOA extension letter and my GC will expire while I am in Mexico. HAS ANY BODY RECENTLY TRAVELED TO MEXICO UNDER THIS CIRCUMSTANCES?
