Green card extension letter expires in December this year. Who knows what happens in my case... But having that stamp in the passport is fine right now, I’m worried when I need to apply for a new job next year if they will accept that as my authorization for work. My passport is in maiden name, which only makes it little more difficult. Sure I can show them marriage license but I’m curios how well versed people in HR are with temporary I-551. The stamp does say “work authorization “.

 

as long as you show them your unexpired state id and a restriction free social security card, the employer can't reject you. It's legally prohibited. Also the stamp serves the same purpose as a green card for the extra year of waiting period. 

I work at an airport and its a little different where you must show them the greencard, but that's because it's and international airport and they have different regulations. 

But other than that you shouldn't have problems with employments.  

I'm still waiting for any news from uscis too and it is pretty frustrating. Although i don't feel that lonely knowing we are all in the same situation

Well that is not some wrong info.

 

If your country permits dual citizenship then obviously this wouldn’t apply to you. But for those whose country of origin does not permit it, by virtue of acquiring foreign citizenship they lose every rights they would otherwise have had as citizens. That means they could be excluded from things like petitioning for a name change if there was a citizenship requirement depending on the laws of the country. So again no wrong info was given, your just lucky to come from a place that permits dual nationality cos believe me if you were not this woulda been a different story altogether.

I know, that is why you shouldn't assume that I come from country that doesn't allow dual citizenship. It was just wrong of you to tell me that I will have trouble getting my name changed, after I said on this forum that I already researched the whole process.

Thank you for info. They took away my green card, so are you saying I can't travel abroad now? I thought we are allowed to travel with the GC extension... I do not plan to travel but I would like to be informed.

You can travel with the passport stamp.

Right! We can make infopass easily. I just love how close to the parking lot the office is. I travel 1.5 hours to Cle office and it helps.

 

btw I just peaked in June 2016 board and lots of people are waiting or in the process of RFE. They are 3 months ahead of us and still in the process.

Okay I’m not sure if you actually read my original post and understood it in its entirety. I DID NOT in any form or fashion imply that u come from a country that doesn’t permit dual citizenship so again you are actually the one making assumptions here. Therefore I encourage u to go back to page 94 and read my initial response cos u clearly didn’t comprehend it at all.

I went to get the stamp in my passport couple days ago and the agent said that its taking about 14 or 16 months the most for our applications. So she said we should be getting some news pretty soon.

Exactly! Seeing those boards I don't expect anything earlier than January, as I don't want to be disappointed. Hopefully we all know by February that the card is in the making.

I think you were confused, that is why the misunderstanding. Those are two separate things:

1) rights of the citizen such as voting

2) updating the data in the system, such as name change

 

You do NOT need to be a citizen to change name in the particular country. Changing the name is not an exclusive "right" to citizens, it is actually a legal requirement to update the name change with the government.

Can anyone tell me how I block certain members? No offense, but I follow this thread and receive notifications each time someone posts, and I don't need this highschool drama in my inbox five times a day. I just want to see people's updates and experiences, not drawn out arguments about he said, she said.

Sorry guys, I was also only interested in updates regarding the ROC status, and then one member started unnecessary drama reading off-topic. Let's stay on ROC topic, shall we??!!!
