Is this too late?

[bubba_cliff 0]

My husband and I just filed I-751 today, Oct. 11. My greencard expires on Oct. 14th, Sunday. I thought it was okay to mail my I-751 couple days before the expatriation date, but now I think it was way too late. I started feeling really nervous. Is there anybody who mailed I-751 right before the expatriation date?

As long as you don't plan on travelling outside the U.S., you will be alright probably.

You should be receiving an NOA shortly (probably in the next few weeks) that extends your GC for one year with travel and employment authorization. If you should travel outside the U.S. after receiving the NOA, just make sure you take your expired GC and the NOA for re-entry into the U.S., until your 10-yr GC arrives.

Thank you so much. That makes me feel much better. I'm not planning to go anywhere near future so I should be okay. Thanks, again.

You mailed it in, so don't worry too much about the date... with luck there won't be any problems with the application and you'll be just fine. The fine print on the application says it must be SUBMITTED during the 90 days, not received/accepted etc.

So it is submission date, not received/accepted date. Now I'm able to have good night sleep. Thanks!!
