Trip to Mexico with i-751 filed and stamp in the passport

[obender 0]

Hi,

we filed removing of conditions about 10 months ago (and still in processing) therefore original 2 year green card expired and my wife obtained "green card stamp equivalent" in her passport. Now, we going to fly to Mexico in two weeks and we're wondering how easy it will be for Mexican border officials to understand what that stamp means. Have anybody had an experience of crossing mexican border with the passport stamp before ?

Important fact is that my wife has russian passport and Mexico requires visa for russians. On the hand green card holders seem to be allowed to go into Mexico visa-free regardless of citizenship...

Thanks!

she will not be the first foreign national to have ever travelled to Mexico in this situation

payxibka,

you're certainly correct from statistics point of view but you'd be surprised how much other countries do not know and do not wish to know about US rule intricacies.
