Q: Conditional GC expired 2 months ago
I am currently in US and have booked a flight in 3 weeks from now to go overseas and spend couple of months. but now I find out that my conditional GC thorough marriage has expired 2 months ago.
What are my chances of getting it renewed? Can I still fly or should I wait?
A: You should be cautious and immediately complete the documents to remove conditions. You should then file them and follow up. It is not advisable to travel if your green card has expired.
A: A conditional resident card issued based on marriage must be extended by filing the FORM I-751 with USCIS. After filing such form you will be issued a receipt that will allow you authorization to travel abroad. If you travel abroad at this time with an expired resident card, you may have issues in entering the U.S.
