This is what I sent to my wife's HR Dept and it cleared things up. You need the expired Greencard, extension letter and a government ID like a driver's license. 

 

 

I have attached chapter 7.1 from the USCIS Hanbook for Employers (M-274) that verifies the documents she has submitted are sufficient for employment. The entire handbook is here: https://www.uscis.gov/i-9-central/handbook-employers-m-274

 

The most relevant portions are here:

 

Employees must be allowed to choose which document(s) they will present from the Lists of Acceptable Documents. You cannot specify which document(s) an employee must present. Employees who attest to being an LPR in Section 1 may choose to present a List A document (such as a Permanent Resident Card, Form I-551) or a List B and List C document combination

 

The combination of an expired Permanent Resident Card and a Form I-797, Notice of Action, that indicates that the card is valid for an additional year, is an acceptable List C evidence of employment authorization for one year as indicated on Form I-797. At the end of the one-year period, you must reverify.

So the combination of her unexpired Texas driver’s license (Type B document) and the Greencard + Extension Letter (Type C) satisfy the requirements of the employment eligibility. The USCIS is really backed up so every single person who has a marriage green card gets one of these letters while the case is processed.

I almost totally completely forgot about this site and my application since I just recently had a baby in Feb. But today I decided to check my case status and it is still “fingerprint was complete.” And I came back up here just to find out most of you guys got approved already!! Should I be concerned!!  

[LarryH 25]

And....... I'm still here.  I guess I should now take over responsibility of updating the January filers approvals table for the forseeable future

Congrats on your new bundle of joy!  There are still plenty of members who haven't received their approval so I wouldn't be concerned at this point.. I checked the other threads from 2018 ROC and a lot of them haven't received anything either.

Thank you! I guess the baby will be our new “evidence” if I get an RFE lol. Hoping for just an approval notice!!!
