Filing at the last minute here...

[bogartnoir 1]

My temporary permanent resident card expires on Feb 2nd, 2013. At the rate in which we seem to be getting things done, I expect it will be mid January before it is actually mailed (we plan to send it overnight mail). I'm really scared that this won't get done in time, or that it's already too late. I'm stressed and worried and it's making me physically sick. Is it okay that my card expires as long as I actually did file before it expired? Could someone please give me good news? Thank you.

You need to file a I-751 form along with the evidence it asks for in the instructions.

As long, they receive the package before you GC expires, you will be fine. They will mail you a NOA and an extension letter.

So long as you file within the 90-day window, you will be fine. My GC expired a month ago, and I am still waiting to get the ROC approved. For that reason they send you a notice of action extending your permanent resident status: they already know that they will not be able to process your application in time for you to receive a new card by the time the conditional one expires. Just make sure you file timely, and allow yourself some comfort time, meaning do not file at the very end of the 90-day period. If, for some reason, your package is sent back, rejected, or lost in the mail, you do not want to run out of time.

Thank you all for your responses. I feel slightly better, but I won't be breathing that easy until I get this thing out of my hands. I appreciate it!
