What happens with my status since my I-829 receipt expires soon and I am unable to schedule an info pass appointment?

My I-829, 18 month receipt is expiring on September 1. I’ve been trying to schedule an info-pass appointment for a temporary stamp, but it’s impossible. USCIS keeps saying they will call me to schedule an appointment but they never call me. My question is if I can not get an appointment before the September 1 deadline, will I remain in status?

You do not need the receipt to prove you are a permanent resident. You are a permanent resident until an Immigration Judge determines your residence has expired. An American does not stop being an American because their passport expired, and similar here.

Keep trying - yes, you still have the status, but not evidence of the status.

Yes, you will remain in CPR status but be unable to travel internationally until you obtain a new stamp. Your employer may require you to provide an updated stamp as well as proof of employment authorization.

Even though the 18-month auto extension document is going to expire, you still are a conditional lawful permanent resident for immigration related purposes.

Your I-829 pending status will not be affected and it will not affect your I-829 adjudication. You just won''t have the proper document proof of your green card status.
