Hi all,
I am still waiting for my I-751 to get approval as my 2 yrs conditional greencard is about to expire. I have to get out of the country April 1, 2005 and my GC will be expired March 15. What if my application did not get approval in time as I travel. Can I stop by the local INS office get a stamp in my passport to extend so I can come back to the States? Please help.

Did you receive the NOA which extends the validity of your current GC by one year? Carry the extension letter and your current GC (even if it shows expired), and you should be OK to travel. Others have done this successfully.
Best Wishes,
Rene

Hi Stephon,
My husband & I filed our I-751 petition jointly to the CSC on 8/17/05 & received the NOA extending his CGC for 1 year on 8/23/05. We are currently still waiting for an approval. Good luck to you. My husbands CGC expired on 11/13/05 & we haven't traveled outside the USA since then. What SC did you apply at?
Fondly
June
