We have no memory of anything in the mail and it's not in our portal which is really surprising because everything else is in the portal.

Does she need the original hard copy of the extension letter or can I email her a copy that she can print out there.

Only original. Copy is a gamble. Airline staff may deny boarding with a copy.

We spoke with USCIS and they said that once we get the I797 extension she can travel with a copy as long as she has the expired green card and passport and her ID's.

I have seen cases where a copy worked.  I have seen cases where it didn't work.  However, the official Carrier information guide says the original extension letter must accompany the expired Green Card:

I understand, I'm just saying what the USCIS rep told us.

Tier 1 reps tell all sort of nonsence all the time, unfortunately. And the worst thing is: you cannot hold them accountable. There's so many people who followed bad advice from those folks only to find VJ was more factually accurate source of information. Travelling with original extension letter is challenging from time to time, let alone a copy.

They never uploaded it for me.

It took 12 days for me to receive the letter.

Did you receive the paper copy?

Remember that is risky for her to travel with the downloaded version instead of the physical copy.

If she tries to use the online version, is a gamble. She can be denied boarding and lose the money spent on the tickets.

Regardless, let us know how it goes. Good luck!

Do you have physical watermarked extension letter? The first issue you may face is airline not accepting the printout and denying boarding. Some were lucky to board with copy but it's more of an exception than rule.

It hasn't arrived yet but in the past she always flew with a copy the original we always kept at home for fear of losing it.
