Hi everyone,

 

I filed for my ROC at the end of October and already had my biometrics mid november. I have been kind of out of it for a while (I need to get caught up on my paperwork, house is a mess etc), but I don’t really remember getting a stamp at my biometrics appointment. The officer stamped my biometrics letter after she was done, but that is all I have. If I need to travel, how can I go about it?

 

ive seen people here mention a letter and also a stamp. Would the letter be my NOA letter saying they received my ROC case? And would the stamp be the biometrics one?

 

i also saw someone saying something about infopass but, again, could not find anything about that. Not even sure what that is LOL

 

i would appreciate if anyone could point me to a thread or two about it. Thanks so much!

You mean you filed ROC this year October 2017? If yes then you dont need i-551 stamp to travel since your NOA1 is good for one year from the date of your conditional resident card given you have the NOA1.

NOA1, unexpired passport  and your expired conditional resident green card.

As @Lemon23said, you will need all three items.  If the ROC drags on for over a year (from the expiration date of the CGC) then you can schedule an infopass appointment to get the I551 stamp in your passport that will be good for another year.

 

Good Luck and Safe Travels!
