Is it unsafe to file for I-751 12 days before green card expiration?

[Dave&Roza 748]

Hi All,

Thanks so much for your help on this.

I will have my grand parents mail the application for us so that it's not mailed too early and not too close to the deadline though.

Considering that we leave on December 7th, return on Jan 1st and that the green card expiration is Jan 13th, when do you think would be the best time to send it?

I feel like the week of Dec 3rd or 10 would be too soon since we may receive a biometrics appointment while we're still gone. It looks like the beginning of the week of Dec 17 would be best. It's nearly a month before expiration and not likely that we would be schedule for a biometric appointment on a date before Jan 1. What do you think?

Thanks again for your great help!

Given that this week is Thansgiving and a lot of people take three days vacation to get a full week and Xmas is coming up, I would sent it off today. The back log of stuff they will receive from this week will take a few more days for the application to be processed. Our bio appointment was one month after we sent in the AOS and that was went things were going much faster. Have your Grandparents watch the mail for the Noa1 and let you know when the bio appoitment is. Given the holiday season, thing are going to slow down.

Good luck,

Dave
