Travel while Green Card Removal of Conditions is Proccessed

[Han 0]

Hi everyone,

I and my husband have moved to Singapore few months ago, and we live in Singapore for at least 2 years, of course we have travelled back and forward to the U.S. and Singapore. We're gonna come back to the U.S for filing a ROC on this March (my GC will expired on May).

As some people here said, after getting NOA1 which automatically extends the validity of the Green Card for one more year. So according to my stituation, it also means that I still can go to Singapore for few weeks while waiting for a biometric appoitment (I have family in the U.S. sent the appointment letter to Singapore), and coming back to U.S with an original NOA1, an EXPIRED GREEN CARD, and I-551 stamp on passport. Is this way safe for me to go to Singapore and come back to the U.S. or I should stay inside the U.S until done with my biometric appointment?

I appreciate from any your answer. Thank you very much

Well, we went to get the I-551 stamp and the agent wouldn't give it to him. She said putting the stamp on his passport would be like giving him two green cards since he already has the extension letter, but she said that, as far as she knew, there was only one airline in one place in Europe that gave people a hard time with the letter. I highly doubt that is true but we are leaving on Saturday so will take our chances. I think a hassle is the worst that can happen so we will deal with it. Thanks for your input folks.

I lost my 797 receipt stating the extension on her expired green card. I have the Biometrics appointment letter, would that still be sufficient evidence for my wife to travel outside of the US before her approval?

@BradLina Tha answer is no, she need the extension letter to enter the US. Since she lost it then she can request for an infopass appointment online for i-551 stamp on her passport, just bring the biometrics appointment with the application and receipt number, passport and the expired green card on the day of the appointment.
