Hello fellow members,

Just a quick question really to anyone who has been on vacation while on an extension of green card (piece of paper)

Im currently going through the process of removing conditions (I-751) and i was hoping to go back to the UK for Christmas for like 10 days. I was just wondering if anyone has had any issues getting back in the US?

Its kinda daunting that all you have is a piece of paper saying that your expired greencard is extended for a year. The People at the airport were bad enough when coming here for a visit, nevermind coming in to stay.

So if anybody has any experience orr knowledgs i would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance

quite a few people travel on the letter. others feel more comfortable getting an infopass appt to get a stamp in their passport. nb: your green card must be surrendered in order to get your passport stamped.

you have legal status as an lpr and have the right to travel. it might take an extra minute at immigration but i bet it will go smoothly!

I have the same concern too. I will be traveling out of the US for Christmas holidays and few ladies I've known through Vj too had traveled out of the US with only the NOA1 with them, but they preferred to do the biometrics first before traveling. And I think I will do this too.
