Hi, I applied for removal of conditions on my residence in September 2020. I received I-797 Notice of Action in October 2020 that gave me an extension f 18 months. After that my case status did not change for the next 8 months. Green Card expired in 11/20. My husband wrote to the senator about lack of action on application. Subsequently, they called me for biometrics in July 2021. My case status changed to: scheduled for interview at the end of September 2021. However, I have received no notice from them confirming a date for the interview. I went ahead and filed N-400 application yesterday. I could not keep waiting anymore. I have multiple questions. 
 

1. Is there a possibility that my I-751 will get scheduled for interview before N-400? In that case, will they still do a combined interview? Do I still need to take my spouse along? 
2. What happens when the extension period of 18 months expires, does USCIS give another extension?
3. My parents live in India and I have not seen them for past 2 years. I want to visit them. Has anyone ever travelled outside the United States on an expired green card with just the I-797 notice of action? Did you experience any difficulty?

Possible, if N400 interview isn't scheduled by then, no combo interview.

You will receive another letter extending your GC by another 6 months. If no interview by then, can get ADIT stamp on your passport.

That's the whole point of the extension letter. Lots of people travel using the expired GC and extension letter.

I hope you did not file N400 right at the dot/ opening of your 90 day window. USCIS system doesn't factor timezones.

Immigration journey is not: fast, for the faint at heart, easy, cheap, for the impatient nor right away. If more than 50% of this applies to you, best get off the bus.

I actually filed N400 after completion of 3 years. I didn’t do it during the early filing period.
