If 751, Petition to Remove the Conditions of Residence is approved,
applicant makes apppointment with immigration. If all is well, a 551
stamp will be put in passport.

Problem, passport will expire and will take time to get new one.

Question : If passport is about to expire in approximatly one month,
would that be a problem ?

Immigration may refuse to put stamp if passport about to expire ?

Immigration may put 551 stamp in passport , but when passport expires
what happens ? 551 stamp is no good ? Could person travel with new
passport and show stamp in old passport ( if they can keep old passport
) ?

Maybe better to just get new passport ?

Thanks for any help

If the passport is about to expire you will get the stamp on an I-94 card. Why did you wait so long to apply for a new passport?

USCIS takes away I-94 when they approve AOS interview, dont they in all cases?

Not all offices stamp any longer.

Yes, they usually take the I-94 at the AOS interview. They'll stamp it on a new I-94 if you go in the for the I-751 stamp.

I got a stamp on an expired passport.

Thanks for replies.

Reason for waiting to renew passport - foolish mistake in not checking
expiration date before :(

Rete, I don't think there is an I-94 in passport. Do you mean they
will put stamp on a new I-94 ? and applicant can then travel with this
stamp and the new passport when it is issued.

The 751 approval letter has not arrived yet - expected in january.

meem - if you got stamp on expired passport, that may be ok for work
authorisation, but what if you want to travel ?

You take both passports - old + new...
