Allowed To Study, Work & Travel ?

[ruby_7 45]

hi

I'm bothered about this I 751 filing. It says you have one year extension after your conditional residence card expires providing you filed the I-751 within 90 days before the Conditional resident card expires. Here are my questions:

1. Am I still allowed to work at least a year after the conditional residence card expires?

2. Am I still allowed to study here in US in University School, for that One ( 1 ) year extension period ?

3. Can I legally travel outside US during the one year extension ? And if so, what shall I bring with me for documentation showing in the airports or to the OFFICERS in the Port of Entry?

I need help, your advices, comments , reactions.....

1, YES

2, YES My wife is attending college BEFORE getting green card. The green card is not a requirement to attend a college or university.

3, YES Show the extension letter and expired card to re-enter the country.

You will receive a notice of receipt for the form stating that "Your alien card is extended one year - employment and travel authorized". Keep the receipt with your green card. If by some chance you are not approved within a year you will want to make an InfoPass appointment to go to your Local Office to request an I-551 stamp in your passport. This does happen as it sometimes it takes over a year to be approved. After your NOA extension expires, this is your only evidence of legal status which you are required to have, by law. This happens occasionally, that a case takes over a year, but it's rare. Local Offices will not give an I-551 stamp is you have another type of evidence of status (ie, expired Green Card + extension letter).
