Thank you so much. Now it makes more sense to not get the passport stamped. According to our current timeline, we won't get anything approved until the end of 2024. Canada specifically states that you can travel with an expired GC and an extension letter, but that's the only country that allows it. We actually want to travel to the UAE, Mexico, and, if possible, Costa Rica. However, these countries generally require a valid GC to enter, so we're not sure if they will accept the extension letter from USCIS

Do you have any other passport? I heard if you are using a Canada passport to enter Mexico that should work. This was what I found in another thread. 

anyone flew to Mexico recently with expired GC and extension letter? Thinking about a trip down south but wanted to see if anyone had any issues entering/boarding.

TIA

Received the 48 month extension today! Now the journey carry's on lol

Welp I overnighted my I-751 application and it was received by the Phoenix lockbox today (signed by a "L Montanez").

 

My GC expires on 3/29 so I should definitely have prepared the packet in January, but oh well - here we are.

 

Hoping to get the NOA1 soon because I have international travel planned at the end of the month! (trying to get an InfoPass appointment to get I-551 stamp just in case)

I have a international trip in the future as well. Is the 551 stamp mandatory to get? I'm just relying on the extension letter..

I have nothing to add here but I will also be up for renewing my passport in the near future, so I appreciate the info!

Hi All,

How long does it take to get the extension letter from the date we file our ROC? I have a trip planned out of the country this August and I will be filing within a week and Hoping I have time. 

Thanks! 

This gives me hope for my upcoming travel to Mexico. Thanks!

Got my letter so I will be prepping to file this month us well! Wish everyone a smooth process

I have the same question. Did you get any information?

As long as you applied for AOS within 1 year of getting your medical you should be okay. 

Finally got my interview date for next month! 

Anyone know If I have to get a new medical examination done?

For the interview do we have to do another medical? or will the one I did for K1 Visa still work? (Done 1/2020)

Thanks

Hi all, how long does it take from the time your status says interview scheduled to you receiving the notice in the mail?

everyone is busy working after receiving EAD so probably why it's so quiet haha

Will they revoke the already issued card if they no show for a biometrics appointment that is not required?

 

What people don't realize is biometrics is not required for Advance Parole.  Biometrics is required for an I131 for a re-entry permit but that is not the benefit being applied for by the OP.

nah no revoking

So my husband already has his combo card.  Today we received a new biometrics appointment for the i131.  That seems odd.  Do we need to attend this again? Thanks 

 

Just to be safe I would attend.

We have the same coming today. Considering my status has been "Ready to schedule for an interview" for 67 days, I suspect the letter is the appointment letter with details on what to bring to the interview. It's postage is 50c so pretty heavy. 

keep us updated! hoping its the interview letter for yall!

Hi everyone, I just received an alert from USPS for a package from USCIS- LEES SUMMIT PRODUCTION FACILITY. Does anyone know if this is the actual card or approval letters. Mycase has not been updated since my Biometrics on August 12th. 

Card 👌

1 to 4 weeks seems normal. Another option is calling ssa and ask if your name is in their system yet and proceed from there. 

Best to call your local SSA office and ask if you are in the system. From there follow their procedures to get a new card if needed.

Better late than never I guess 👏
