[charlesmarnie 0]

hi, it's my first time to post on this forum and i am a september filer. I submitted my application the 26th of september ang my noa1 was on Sept 29 saying that my I have a 1yr extension. My biometrics was on October 24, 2014. I haven't receive an approval yet but i am wishing that it will be anytime soon. I have quick question about my situation if you could help me. My grandmother just passed away a week ago and Me and my wife want to attend her burial in the philippines on the middle of February. Before we will go to my country, we will be filing our joint income tax first. 1. Can I use my extension letter with my expired green card for my 3month trip to the philippines? 2. Do i need to book for info pass?( I read some post here that it doesn't need anymore but just to make sure hmm) 3. will it be a problem that my wife and me will stay for 3 months there to attend the burrial and also having a vaccation? 4. If my greencard arrives here in our mail, could I ask somebody here in our house to mail it to me in the Philippines or no need cause I still have my extension letter? Thank you and Godbless us all.

hi, it's my first time to post on this forum and i am a september filer. I submitted my application the 26th of september ang my noa1 was on Sept 29 saying that my I have a 1yr extension. My biometrics was on October 24, 2014. I haven't receive an approval yet but i am wishing that it will be anytime soon. I have quick question about my situation if you could help me. My grandmother just passed away a week ago and Me and my wife want to attend her burial in the philippines on the middle of February. Before we will go to my country, we will be filing our joint income tax first. 1. Can I use my extension letter with my expired green card for my 3month trip to the philippines? That is the intended use of the I-797 Receipt/Extension Letter, according to the wording of the USCIS letter. 2. Do i need to book for info pass?( I read some post here that it doesn't need anymore but just to make sure hmm) Purpose? 3. will it be a problem that my wife and me will stay for 3 months there to attend the burrial and also having a vaccation? Likely a non-issue, check the requirements of a Legal Permanent Resident and length of overseas travel. 4. If my greencard arrives here in our mail, could I ask somebody here in our house to mail it to me in the Philippines or no need cause I still have my extension letter?See below. Thank you and Godbless us all.

Welcome to the forum.

Your valid Phil. passport should get you into the Phils., your expired GC with extension letter should get you back into the US. Review previous pertinent threads on this topic for more details.

Good luck on your journey.

P.S. Your "quick question" sprouted into four questions.
