Hi-

So my conditional GC is valid until November 2015. I am just about to submit my I-751 application with waiver due to divorce. Depending on how efficient my lawyer is, I am guessing USCIS will officially get my complete application before the end of July.

Just learned that I need to travel abroad for business for a week this September. Will there be any issues if I don't receive my NOA or have my biometrics by this time?

Also, my divorce decree includes a name change order. Will this affect the validity of my GC?

Any advise is greatly appreciated.

If your GC is unexpired, you will be fine. When do you anticipate the divorce will be finalized?

Divorce was finalized March 30, 2015. GC's expiration is November 20, 2015.

The reason I ask is I was wondering if I should postpone submitting my I-751 until after my September travel?
