Hi all,

I have 2 questions, and would be most grateful for any help you could provide -

Regarding travel while waiting on the I-751 application: I filed my application in January of this year; I might have to travel back to the UK on short notice; would I be right in thinking that all I need is my UK passport, my expired permanent resident card, and the NOA which states that "... you are authorized employment and travel"?

About the NOA: this states that "your conditional resident status is extended for a period of one year." Does this mean one year from the expiry date on the permanent resident card, or one year from the NOA itself?

Thank you all in advance

:)

Yes, you should only need your British passport, your expired green card, and your NOA letter authorizing work and travel.

My husband made a return trip to Turkey this past summer with those three documents and had no trouble at all re-entering the U.S. (He also got a new job recently and had no problem re: the expired green card since he had the NOA letter.)

Hope this helps.
