Baldwin Park, CA asked in Immigration Law for California

Q: If I have an extended expiration month on my GC which is December of this year. Can I still travel during that month?

I renewed my GC in March 2017, they gave me a sticker with an extension date (December 2017). Can I travel to Mexico during this month? I plan on returning Dec. 27. Will I be allowed to return back to the US?
