I have a valid non-US passport and an expired green card with NOA extending my legal status for 24 month.  I know that I can still travel internationally with expired green card as long as its accompanied by the NOA, I've done it already.  I want to take one more trip in late Oct but would I have any problems if NOA letter is set to expire in about 3 months when I will try to leave? With passports, you would not be allowed to board a plane if it expires in 3 or 6 months, not sure which one (just happened to a friend of mine who was denied boarding because his passport was expiring in less than 6 months). Would I have similar problem with NOA if the trip gets close to its expiration (assuming I won't receive a new NOA or green card itself before the trip which I have low hopes given how slow USCIS is these days).

As long as you re-enter the US before the expiration of the extension letter, you should be fine. The extension letter is not a passport.   It simply extends the expiration date on the green card.

Call USCIS, make an info pass appointment and get a stamp in your passport. There'll be no other letter and depending how long it still might take to get your ROC approved you gonna need it anyways

USCIS don't usually give it eatlier than 30 days before extension letter expires and you need a good reason for it.
