@Lyz, do you have the card and extension letter? Is the letter still valid? Maybe FedEx to Nairobi.

As the OP said, the USCIS folks took the expired green card and extension letter when they issued the I-551 stamp.

Wow! Nice find.  I have never heard of this before.  I guess we need to start advising everyone to hang on to those expired conditional Green Cards and extension letters. 

You bet

We don't have the card. We have purchased another ticket through Germany

Does the UK not accept the wet-stamp I-551 at all, or just not for transiting?

I have an EU passport (Austria), an approved UK ETA and an unexpired wet-stamp I-551 in my passport along with an expired (corner clipped) GC.
My return flight to the US will be to Denver from Brussels via London Heathrow.

Thanks in advance!

The OP was from Kenya so needed a transit visa. If you’re from Austria then you should be fine, but double check it on the link given above in this thread.

Also, eTA may or may not be needed starting April 2nd

Yep, but he says he’s got that, so think that is sorted.
