I travelled back from Spain yesterday with my US Citizen wife, travelling on my expired Green Card and extension letter. No issues in Madrid Airport, where the extension letter was recognised instantly by all airline staff (Iberia), and was through CBP at JFK in minutes...handed them my passport, green card and extension letter, and was asked no questions other than the usual customs questions as to any items we were bringing in. Was really simple, and nothing to worry about either.

Update - 02/11 - Biometrics Appointment (a breeze...in and out in less than 5 minutes!), and case now changed to Case Is Being Actively Reviewed By USCIS, so the waiting game begins! Let's see if I get to the point where I can naturalise (under 3 year marriage route) before anything is done!

Update to our case, for those following timeframes etc. 01/14 - Package sent to Carol Stream, IL 01/16 - Delivered 01/22 - Text Message received (G-1145) 01/23 - Check cashed 01/24 - USCIS Case Tracker confirmed status changed to Biometrics Scheduled (For 02/11) 01/27 - Chat with agent via EMMA and received my online access code - Biometrics Notice, Receipt and Green Card Extension all held in my online account 01/31 - Receipt and Biometrics Documents received in Post 02/01 - Green Card Extension Document received in Post Service Center is the National Benefits Center (NBC). Now the long wait begins, but glad to have received everything so quickly, as due to travel in a couple of months, so no worrying about receipt of original extension letter or missing the biometrics appointment.

I also sent in a G-1145, with my pack. Received a text message today around 1pm that the case has been received. Package was sent by USPS express mail on 1/14 arriving with them on 1/16. So, it looks like the G-1145 is working, at least at Elgin!

Hi Everyone, I am creating this forum for all the applicants who are going to submit their petitions in January 2025 for the I-751 Removal of Conditions on Permanent Residence. I have finalised my package, which will be sent to USCIS today. Looking forward to hearing other experiences.
