Hi guys,

So I submitted my green card renewal form a while ago but haven't heard back yet. Unfortunately I have to leave the country on an emergency, and my green card expired just two weeks ago... I know that to get back to the US I would need a transportation letter from the local consulate - but I am concerned that they would not let me board my flight to go to Hong Kong in the first place.

Anyone have any experiences on *leaving* the country with an expired green card (but valid non-US passport?)

My guess is that I don't know if the have good reason to keep me in the US - after all I can simply drive up to Canada and hop on a flight to Hong Kong and the US wouldn't even know until I return.. and I have other forms of valid ID (Say, a DL or whatever).. but I wanted to make sure so I'm not surprised sitting at JFK...

Anyway, hopping on CX831 on Thursday March 3rd.

Thanks!
