  1. Hi All, I had recently had my interview, after which my N-400/I-751 was approved, and my oath was scheduled and it'll happen in a couple of weeks. My I-751 status changed to card being produced and based on the tracking number it was supposed to be delivered yesterday. However, for some reason the postal service sent it back to USCIS. I know I could go to USCIS' website and file a "didn't receive card" service request. But since my oath is in a few weeks, and I already have my expired GC, I didn't want to go through the hassle. I was thinking of printing the status page of I-751 that says the card has been returned, just in case if they ask me where my new GC is. Do you think this would be okay?
  2. Hi all, just wanted to share my experience of traveling to Mexico with my expired green card and extension letter. There is some ambiguity about this in the forums and I found it hard to search for information, so creating a separate thread. [FYI: this is not about entering the US with the extension letter; I know that fine and I’ve done it plenty of times] Sharing my experience just in case anyone is looking for this info: I had zero problems. United Airlines checked me in without any problems, and when I landed in Mexico, they asked for my extension letter after realizing my GC had expired. And that was it, and they stamped my passport. Different Mexican consulate generals in different US cities had very conflicting information on their website—including the one in NYC saying that the extension letter is not accepted. This is clearly incorrect. I followed the Mexican Embassy in Washington DC’s link, which redirects to the the actual Mexican governments regulation. It states that anyone with valid proof of permanent residency in the US needs no visa. Nothing more than that. It’s as straightforward as it can get.
