We are about to submit I-751 paperwork for my husband. His green card expires June 29. My question is can we travel out of the US with his old green card and the one year exentsion letter once he receives it OR does he have to go get his passport stamped?

This is a very frequent question.

Answer is: YES :yes: the extension letter clearly indicates it allows work and travel while I-751 is pending.

You will receive a notice of receipt for the form stating that "Your alien card is extended one year - employment and travel authorized". Keep the receipt with your green card. If by some chance you are not approved within a year you will want to make an InfoPass appointment to go to your Local Office to request an I-551 stamp in your passport. Local Offices will not give an I-551 stamp is you have another type of evidence of status (ie, expired Green Card + extension letter)

well what happend if it is approved and you are out of the country?

We are going to file my wifes on the 6th, but she wan'ts to go home to be with her sick father and finish up her daughters visas. What happens if she is overseas when they send you the interview notice?

Then you will either need to return to the USA for the interview, or contact USCIS and see if the interview can be rescheduled. If approved, the letter and expired card are still valid for re-entry to the USA.

If you get an interview at this stage, which is rare, as far as I can see.
