green card not produced, stamped i551

[mP13]

my adjustment of status (employment based) was approved last Feb 13,2014 and I have the Welcome Notice. However, I already contacted USCIS because the card is not yet produced until now. I got an email response on April 7 that they're sorry and will now place a request to have the card produced. I finally made an Infopass appointment on May 6 and the officer found out that it was a problem with the fingerprinting (which is weird coz I already have my EAD/advance parole combo card). So he gave me another biometrics schedule and told me to email the Texas Service Center after it's done. I also asked for a stamped i551 and he gave me one that's good for 6 months (valid until Nov. 10). I walked in to have my biometrics done right after Infopass and emailed TSC a few hours after.

I have a trip coming up at the end of this month to go to South America for 3 months. My question is will I have problems when I come back? will I have complications if I go to the trip without waiting for my physical greed card?

Thank you.

The I-551 stamp normally allows you to travel outside the U.S and legally work until the Green Card shows up.

what does the i551 stamp look like?

Does the stamp I have attached a pic of enable me to re enter the USA?

I entered the states from Australia with my temporary visa.
I have the "admitted" stamp in my passport (pic attached) and

on my visa it says: upon endorsement serves as temporary I-551 evidencing permanent residence for 1 year.

I have been searching online for an image of the stamp I need.
Is the "admitted" stamp the endorsement? Or is there another?

The I-551 endorsement on your visa allows you to reenter the U.S., since you don't yet have your Green Card.
