US Immigration from Thailand

My wife extended her stay in Thailand due to covid-19 and was in possession of her 2 year conditional green card.

While in Thailand her green card expired, and she is not able to re-enter the US. She did not have a re-entry permit.

We have been to the US Embassy in Bangkok, and with the help of an attorney she will be getting a re-entry permit to get back in to the USA.

My question is, once she is back in the US, do we need to file for a new green card for her first? I am assuming this will be a 10 year green card?

OR, can we just do file for a removal of conditions while she is on her re-entry permit?

I am under the impression that we need to get her the green card first, and once she has her green card, we can then file for a removal of conditions.

Can someone please validate if my thinking is correct? What should our next steps be?

Thanks so much in advance for helping make sense out of such a complicated process and crappy situation. :)

I will be filing my I-751 within the next week or so for my Thai wife. I want to include a photocopy of her Florida ID card along with pictures of her credit cards for which she is an authorized user on my accounts. Should all the credit card numbers be whited out or covered? Not sure if USCIS needs to see the actual credit card numbers.

Also, if my wife's name is on a document (like mortgage) but is small and hard to see, how can I mark the location of her name without using a HIGH LIGHTER of some kind. Any advice for this would be very helpful.

Thanks in advance for any replies to these questions.

Anyone pay the I-751 fee with a Visa DEBIT CARD as opposed to a regular CREDIT CARD?

I have credit cards but on occasion they get declined by the card issuing bank because they don't recognize the payee as some entity you've paid previously. I would rather not take a chance with a straight up Credit card for this reason. I haven't written a paper check in over 10 years and therefore, don't have any. Would prefer to not have to order a box of checks for a singular transaction.

The information on the USCIS website is confusing and all over the place: sometimes they say "Debit/Credit" then sometimes just "Credit"

Anyone have experience paying their filing fee with an actual DEBIT CARD?

Thanks in advance for any replies to this question.

Hello all,

We will soon be filing our I-751 documents (CR-1 ROC) package and would like to ask how you folks packaged your documents when mailing via USPS....and which USPS service you used, i.e. Priority mail, Priority mail express, etc. and if you used their boxes.

Any advice or information would be helpful for us. I think we will be sending to the Phoenix, AZ address. Thank you in advance for any replies to this question.
