Don’t forget to travel with your marriage certificate, in case they want to see proof of the name change. I’ve never been asked for this, but is better to be prepared. 
 

 

Yup I brought all of it when I traveled in 2020. I just am extremely anxious about not having an actual physical card. So much hassle. Might travel in the fall. Hopefully we're all approved by then.

WAC Approval.  Just received email that my wife's i-751 was approved.  No interview/RFE. 

 

I know it is a long process.  Stay positive.  Your approval will come soon.  I do wish you all the best.  My wife will be applying for citizenship in mid September.

If we received our 24-month extension letters September of 2021, when will it expire?

 

I will be traveling for work in the Philippines between September- November. Not sure of the travel dates yet. I've read some travelers not accepted in their connecting airports even when they have their extension letter and expired green card. 

 

-Do I need to get an I-551 stamp?

-How long is the process?

-Who has experience traveling to Philippines with an extension letter?

Not only do you not need an I-551 stamp; they will not issue one if the extension letter is still valid.

Thanks. I am just darn worried as the immigration folks in airports are unpredictable. I think of the worst case scenarios so I can plan ahead. This is a work travel that I do not want to compromise just because of some inconsistencies even when we have complete and correct paperwork. Sigh. I wish us all the best and see more approvals!

It will expire in Sep 2023 .. Before Booking flight for my wife  to fly to Turkey through Amsterdam  connection flight .. so I called Netherlands Embassy in DC to verify if the 24 month extension letter will suffice with expired Green Card .. the Embassy lady insisted that they will send her back  since the card expired and they will not consider any extension letter !! So we cancelled the trip ! Thats Netherlands a modern European country!!!

I wouldn’t be worried from the airlines but what Make worried when an embassy or immigration visa officer in Turkey or Amsterdam would deny entry cause the card expired and they don’t consider extension letter !

Exactly. The feedback I got yesterday was someone was denied in Qatar airport. It was a connecting flight. Now the person was ordered to go back to his home country in Vietnam.
