  1. Her Philippine passport, her (expired) green card and the I-797 extension letter showing it's validity. Korean immigration refused to recognize the letter as valid.
  2. After we were denied boarding to South Korea because the Korean immigration authorities would not accept the extension letter, we applied her for a Visa from the Korean consolate. Today we got back a rejection because they too fail too recognize the extension letter. Is there any way to get a replacement GC with a valid expiration date? Failing that I'll have to apply her for an N-400 and see how long that takes. 😞 Open for thoughts. Interesting that CBP took down the above document.
  3. Yeah, she's refusing to believe that ... (but she's stubborn as I've discussed earlier). She'll figure it out and deal with it as it happens. I'm just hoping to get my long-term spouse visa to the Philippines before she loses her citizenship. LOL
  4. No worries. I appreciate the advice. She's happy to be American. She'll figure the rest out. (Only so much I can do)
  5. Actually a question: She says she keeps her Philippine citizenship as well. Is this not true? (I've considered getting Philippine citizenship for retirement ... but I'd have to give up US Citizenship .. as I understand it, that's not true in reverse). Maybe I'm wrong.
  6. Oh, I get it. She *always* sits next to me when I do this stuff. (She just hates computers) We travel to places she's good for, (her home, SE Asia, etc). she wants her US passport.
  7. My answers to the questions: Q: Were one or both of your parents a U.S. citizen when you were born? A: No Q: How old are you? A: over 18 Q: Are you a member of the U.S. armed forces? A: No Q: Are you a lawful permanent resident? A: Yes Q: When did you become a lawful permanent resident? A: Between April 28, 2019 and April 28, 2021 Q: Are you married to a US Citizen? A: Yes Q: Have you been married for 3 years or longer? A: Yes Q: Has your spouse been a U.S. citizen for 3 years or longer? A: Yes Q: Have any of your trips outside of the United States been longer than 6 months? A: No ... AND now this time it says eligible. Maybe a glitch earlier? No idea. Either way I'll submit the form (and the fee $$) Getting her a US Passport will be so much better than what we are dealing with. She's been amazing thru this process. (As have all of you with the support)
  8. I was born here. 🙂 You mean they might not let her back in the country with that letter? I really wish they'd just issue a new card.
  9. 1. NO 2. Yes 3. I filled it out correctly on her behalf. I did some more digging. Apparently, that form will always kick back "may not be eligible" for anything under five years. But following their "path to citzenship" link, it clearly states three years if married to a US citizen. So I guess I'll just get her to submit it. That's the range I plugged in as well.
  10. Follow-up question on this thread: I just went thru the N400 eligibility tool. Wife's green card is dated 10/13/20. Tool says she is not yet eligible. I thought it was three years?
  11. I had to pull it out and look. You are correct. It's 48 months. FYI: Republic of Korea didn't recognize or honor the letter and instead went by the expired date on her green card. Denied her admission. So be careful. Seems the only country guaranteed to recognize it as a valid extension is the USA.
  12. I think we will do this. I am reading here that there is an online application form? I don't need to mail a stack of papers and documents this time?
  13. We are past three years, but we are still *STILL* waiting for her removal of conditions to be processed. We are on the 2 year extension letter and it seems it will never happen. 😞
  14. The problem was they called immigration in South Korea who wouldn't approve boarding with the letter. I already had the manager involved at the airline. It cost me a lot of money ... I wish I could have avoided it.
  15. My wife's letter stated the same. It didn't matter to the ROK officials at Inchon who wouldn't give the green light for the airline to allow us to board. Hard to argue when you can't even get to the same country to see the official.
