Expiry date for temp I551? (IR-1)

[DaveBrit73 3]

Hi All,

I had my POE at LAX on May 25th 2015. That's the date stamped on my IR1 visa, which is now valid for 1 year as a temporary I551 until my card arrives.

I returned to the UK on June 3rd. I'm trying to check-in online for a flight to Houston tomorrow and the check in is failing.

I'm selecting "I am a Permanent U.S. resident"

I enter my green card number, adding A0nnnnnnnn.

What do I use for the expiration date?

24th May 2016 or 25th May 2016? Or select "No expiration date"?

Any ideas?

Presumably I need to add the 'A0'?

Thanks!

Either date is fine - your temp GC is good for a year -365 days.

You actual GC will have a 2 year duration (assuming you've been married less than 2 years). Try a 2 year expiration date.

I've been married for 13 years, the temporary green card endorsement in my passport clearly states -

"UPON ENDORSEMENT SERVES AS TEMPORARY I-551 EVIDENCING PERMANENT RESIDENCE FOR 1 YEAR"

I've sorted it out guys, it was May 24th 2016. Thanks!

Yes, I understand what is stamped/written in your passport. The physical green card will have an expiry of 5 years (since you've been married more than 2 years) for an IR1 visa and 2 years for a CR1 visa. Hence my guess.

Have a safe trip.

The IR1 Green Card is for 10 years not 5 years, lol
