That's not true. As discussed here, USCIS employer guidelines allow the employee to choose what documentation of employment eligibility to produce from the list of acceptable documents on Form I-9. The NOA1 is not listed. However, an unrestricted social security card and a foreign passport with an I-551 stamp are. Yup, my advice would be to go and get an unrestricted ssn card immediately while you are still in status (if you haven't already done so). I would recommend showing your employer an unrestricted ssn and a state id or drivers license. That way they need never have to check your EAD or green card. Nevertheless, working without a NOA1 in her case would constitute immigration fraud. Hardly. As long as she files the I-751 before the expiration of her green card, she will not go out of status, regardless of when she receives the NOA1. So if she is still in-status, even without an NOA1, how can that constitute "immigration fraud"? Plus she can always get her passport stamped with an I-551 if she needs to.

Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	Question about my drivers license, while waiting for I-751	my greencard expired on the 2nd of december. two days before, i went to the DMV and got a texas drivers license. its yet to come in the mail but per the clerk it wont expire until 2010. i watched her write down the expiration date of my greencard and it didnt seem to be an issue. she barely scanned my social security card. obviously i didnt push it, but it seems to have worked out fine. i guess this would be different for every state. good luck.

Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	Work authorization / SS card / 1-751 pending....	QUOTE (kbf @ Mar 7 2008, 11:39 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I had same problem. on Thursday 28th Feb 2008, I went to SS OFfice with expired green card and NOA (extension Letter) to get new card that dont have that writing on it. Yesterday, after exactly 7 days, i got my New Social Security Card. so dont worry. Take your paper and apply for replacement card. Good Luck Interesting.

Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	Work authorization / SS card / 1-751 pending....	Good morning, My I-751 is pending approval. I have received the letter stating work authorization is extended for 1 year. I have a social security card with a stamp on it that says "valid for employment only with approval" (or something to that effect). I have continued to work at my job within a large corporation with no problem. In other words, things are fine. However--- I am beginning to look for a career change. I am quite concerned that a potential new employer would be hesitant to take my SS card / expired green card / 1 yr letter as valid proof. They could be concerned that I can only work for a limited time, for example. -is there some way to update my SS card and get one that does not have the "under authorization only" stamp? -has anyone had any experience dealing with human resources depts that is in the same position as me? Had no problem at my current job because I had my valid green card. thanks for any input!	KJ79	Not Telling	0	2008-03-07 10:34:00

Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	Will I lose my perm resident status if I go back to Canada for school?	Hello, I am a happy US Permanent Resident. Citizen of Canada. I was accepted into two Universities back home in Canada and would like to finish my degree. School starts in September so this is not enough time (I dont think) to get US Citizenship. I would like to return back to the states when I finish my degree (or at least keep that option open) as I love my new home in Austin. Will my husband and I have to go through the whole application for spouse permanent resident again? Will it be harder the second time, since I assume they will see that I have "abandoned" my permanent resident status? My husband is a US citizen, we did the whole fiance visa process 3 and half years ago. He is currently studying in Canada also, as an International student on a student visa. Does anyone know of any options here, or have you gone through the same thing? Posting in the citizenship forum too. Thanks! -KJ	KJ79	Not Telling	0	2009-03-30 11:18:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	Traveling outside US?	QUOTE (RIMASH @ Mar 30 2009, 04:16 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> does anyone know this? my husband has a greencard through marriage with me. His greencard is now in the "removing conditions" step. He recently got admission in a Dental school in mexico. he will be going there probably in October. Can he stay outside US for 2 years? does anyone know if he can stay outside US ?? Thanks! This is similar to my question in another thread about going back to school in Canada... I do not know the answer myself. I believe it would make sense to apply for a travel permit / re-entry permit, however I doubt that there are any guarantees tied to that. If the permanent resident is employed while at school and maintaining a house outside the US to me it seems like that puts ones status in jeopardy.	KJ79	Not Telling	0	2009-03-30 16:22:00
