Hi to all respected members,

 

I have a question my Moms green card is expiring and I already deposited the fees and she has her Biometrics appointment in 1st week of May. Can I able to get her 1 year Extention tape on the back of the expired green card for her if yes then what should I have to do like what documents should I take with me to the appointment. One thing I already have her Airline Ticket Itinerary with me the proof that she is flying.

 

Or this extension tape is for real and can be done in this upcoming appointment easily.

If you already submitted the renewal paperwork, she should be getting a I-797 that is proof that she has applied for her renewal and that will extend her for 18 months.  What do you mean by extension tape on the back of her green card?

Hi bro I already has  I-797 C received with the appointment date mentioned on it for Biometrics I heard that they placed an Extention tape like a tape on the backside of the green card so the person can fly or work anywhere in the world, Until a new Green Card arrives. Do you have any information regarding that? Can my mom fly in this month before her new green card arrives so when she comes back to the USA she doesn't face any problem by authorities at the airport on her return after seeing the expired green card.

You should get 2 separate letters; one for the renewal receipt and one for the biometrics appointment.  She will need to take that letter (per the CBP officer when my husband traveled with his expired card, she must have the original letter, not a copy) with her and her green card to get back into the country.  

 

They do not put a tape on the back of the card, you just have to keep both the card and the letter with her for re-entry.

Yes she has 2 letters one with Notice that they receive the application the other of Biometrics appointment letter, So she must carry the Appointment Letter when she travels abroad along with the expired green card. One more question can she stay about 5 and half months outside of state on this green card with the biometrics appointment letter?.

Is this about removal of Conditions or just a regular renewal? For the regular renewal she'll get a sticker on her greencard. For the removal of Conditions she'll get an extension letter. Two different processes.
