Filing for Unemployment with a Pending I-751 Application

[notquitesurehow 9]

Hey everyone, apologies if this isn't the right the place to ask this, but I haven't managed to find any relevant threads.

 

I have a pending I-751 application to remove conditions and my 2-year conditional green card expired back in March this year. I got my I-797 receipt notice (extension letter) stating that my permanent resident status is extended for 18 months from my green card's expiration date. 

 

It just so happened that I got laid off last week and had to apply for unemployment. When I submitted my claim, the question asking for the most recent immigration document only allowed me to enter my green card's info, so for an expiration date I entered March 2020, assuming there will be a way for me to submit further information about the extension letter, but there wasn't. I just received a letter from the Employment Security Department asking me to send them "a copy of my most recent employment authorization card and any other immigration documents I have from USCIS". Which is fine, however, they also ask to specify the type of ID that I have and provide corresponding additional information and I'm confused as the extension letter is not among the documents listed. The closest I see is the temporary I-551 stamp on passport, as I will only need to get it prior to the extension letter's expiration.

 

Does anyone have experience with this? I would appreciate your insight if you had a similar issue.

when we filed in March they wanted to see a copy of my wifes Green Card so I had to mail them a copy. In your case I would have moved the expiration date up 18 months and just sent them the 797 copy along with a copy of the Green Card. Hopefully they know what this stuff is.
