To be clear as all I have read is about the I-551 stamp being used for travel, if we were to come upon this grueling wait period and the extension letter were to expire we would need to get this stamp how much BEFORE the letter expires and how does one go about setting up an appointment for that and most importantly it can be used for work authorization not just travel as I have read elsewhere on the internet.....correct?

 

i hope we won't need that but I'm seeing so much delay even still from people that filed the ROC in 2015!!!! Especially VSC which would be us ?. SO inneed to be prepared and I'm putting alerts in all my calendars so I can tackle this well in advance if need be.

You would make an Infopass appointment approximately one month before the extension letter was due to expire.

 

An I-551 passport stamp is evidence of LPR status and can be used for all purposes, including foreign travel and employment.
