My husband received his combo card about a month ago, got a SSN a few weeks ago and landed a job this week! We are traveling to England Wednesday for a week to finish up some business and see family. Unfortunately, his father passed away during a time he was not allowed to travel. Any advice on traveling? Should he have his card, SSN, employment proof, death certificate from father?? Any advice? Just don't want to hit any snags coming back over to the U.S.

He will just need the combo card and his passport. He will probably be sent to secondary inspection upon re-entry to the US but that is normal.

Somebody mentioned they had problems boarding a British Airways flight at LHR in July with an combo card. You may wish to print off pages 43 & 44 of this guide off just incase. Safe travels.

The only documents he needs to re-enter the US are his AP and valid passport.

My condolences for his father.
