Has anyone been out of the country maybe specifically to Mexico with

Expired Green Card

Valid Passport

1 year Extension ( I-751)

I will be going there in two weeks and paranoid!

I know that the one year extension validates ur Green card for a year and heard from people on this forum that once your green card is scanned all that info is in the immigration officers computer system.

It would be nice to hear some experiences from Travelers though that have gone thru this

If you are travelling by car, facing an IO/customs oficer on the Mexican side is VERY unlikely. But, you would need the card and the extension letter on your way back into the US. Another thing I would encourage you to take with you is your valid passport from your country of origin.

Experience: I lived in a border town for more than half my life :)
