Hello, currently my husband and I are waiting for his I-751 to be completed. Our interview was cancelled on March 24, 2020. We filed application March 2019, Visa due to expire December 2020. We've been anxiously waiting for some change but when I check our status it has not changed. I called USCIS to ask if and when we should request extension but was told to give it a few weeks. I know many things have changed because of covid and employees ready to be furloughed.  Any advice? We do not know what to do. I get very anxious and need some sort feedback.

His visa expired when he entered the US......His status as a legal resident does not expire when his Green Card extension letter expires.  Only his evidence of status expires....not the status, itself.  There is nothing to worry about.   If he needs evidence of his status for travel, etc, he can request an appointment at USCIS to get a stamp in his passport.  Otherwise, there is no need to request an extension.  There is a lot of time between now and December.

 

 

My wife filed her I-751 in March 2019 also.  Her status is "Case is ready to be scheduled for an interview".

Good Evening,

 

Please update your timeline. I did not know if you were waiting for an interview for a visa or I-751 due to wording in bold above. Upon going to your timeline it was not updated. This will help others assist you.

Lucky cat,

Will my husband be able to continue working if we haven't received new news by December?

Yes.  He will still maintain his status as a legal resident who is allowed to work.
