UK Passport Due to Expire
Hi all, haven't posted here in absolutely ages, hope everyone's good
We've been in Texas 2 1/2 years, married for nearly as long and we had a baby boy 10 months ago My eldest son and I received our conditional green cards (adjusted from K1/2 visas) in August 2015.
Just need a tiny bit of advice. We're travelling back to the UK for 2 weeks in May. My husband and baby boy will have their US passports, I'll have my UK passport that doesn't run out 'til 2022, but my eldest son's UK passport runs out in November so he'll only have 5 months left on it when we travel back to the US.
I *think* he'll be ok as he'll obviously have his green card to wave at CBP but will he have a problem boarding the flight from the UK? Would prefer to wait til later in the year to renew his passport if possible :-/
Thanks everyone!

British citizen passport holders don't require six months remaining validity in order to travel to the US, only validity for the length of their proposed trip. Your son's Green Card would trump that anyway.

... will he have a problem boarding the flight from the UK?

Re: UK Passport Due to Expire
You could renew his passport any time from February/March onwards and not lose any validity. As far as I recall the UK passport office carries forward up to 9 months of validity from a previous passport.
