Supporting documentation for a reentry permit and how to pay?

[fiskefillet 1]

Hi everyone

Generally nervous about these things but if the official USCIS instructions say to only attach your form I-551, which is my green card, front and back, thats all I need to attach, correct? Have read a variety of things on different blogs and what not but this is the only official instruction that I can find.

 

If you are applying for: a. Reentry Permit You must attach: (1) A copy of the front and back of your Form I-551; or (2) If you have not yet received your Form I-551, a copy of the biographic pages of your passport and a copy of the visa page showing your initial admission as a lawful permanent resident, or other evidence that you are a lawful permanent resident; or (3) A copy of the Form I-797, Notice of Action, approval notice of an application for replacement of your Form I-551 or temporary evidence of lawful permanent resident status.
 

Also is there no way to pay the fee online? Do I have to use a G-1450 form and attach that? Seems a hassle, and less secure to me

Yes, a copy of the GC.

 

No online payment. Filling out G-1450 is more secure than using a credit card in a store in my opinion. If you feel it’s less secure, you can send money order or cashiers check.
