I saw in another area of Visa Journey that someone was wondering if anyone had gone to Morocco with their expired 'green card' and an extension letter while waiting for the Removal of Conditions. Since we'll soon be sending in for ROC, I was wondering the same thing. Has anyone done that, and if so, what happened? No problem, or big hassle?

Thanks!

My husband told me he won't chance traveling with just an expired 'green card' and an extension letter, so I guess it doesn't matter!

Thanks for the info!

Oh, yeah, if I did talk him into trying it, it would definitely be through JFK. He came through PHL the first time. Never again, if we can help it.
