Have you filed the I-751 for removing conditions? It should have been filed 90 days or less before the conditional green card expired. You should cancel your plans, and she should not leave the US until it is sorted.

EDIT - Here's the guide about it.

If you haven't filed yet, you'll need to seek advice on how to proceed.

ZAKIANDHUMARIA,

These two statements are contradictory - if she's not yet in the USA for 2 years then her green card has not yet expired. Dates, please.

If her green card has expired, then her status as an LPR has expired with it. Submit an I-751 ASAP and include a good reason for not having filed when she should have.

You need to file for lifting of conditions and then wait for it to be logged into the system so that you can get an I-551 stamp. Without that stamp or extension letter, you could run into trouble. Possibly a fine.

How do you imagine you can continue on with your vacation plans if your wife has lost her LPR status? They of course would not let her back into the US with an expired GC! Common sense says cancel plans and file paperwork.

Yeah, well I don't hang out in that forum, but it was good advice clearly!

I think that thread was moved from this forum too... can't remember now. Anyway, I edited my response, as nobody did suggest seeing a lawyer in that thread, but still....!

I would definitely not go to Canada without her new green card. My husband and I just returned from there after celebrating our second wedding anniversary. They let us right into Canada but on our return, they stopped us at the border and we had to go inside for them to be sure his green card was valid, which it was. We had no problem but they did check it so do not go. Good luck on getting your paperwork straightened out.
