No Plastic Cards/ going to India for 3/4 months

[covey]

POE: Washington Dulles Airport
DOE: 05/20/01
Called VSC, was told TSC handles the cards , they are backlogged seriously and are processing March 2001.
Several months more to get the plastic.
I will also try to call the TSC and get a SRC number to be able to use the automated system.
Even if I assume it takes them 2 months to get thru each month that means to get to May it will be 6 more months. I am probably looking at something around 02/02.

I need to go to India with the I551 stamp for 3/4 months after resigning. has anyone traveled to India with just a I 551 stamp. Do the India immigration cause trouble? What about the US POE people. Do I need supporting documentation?
Please Please post as I have to leave by the end of this month.I greatly appreciate your input.

Don't know about India, also look for another post in this forum, but for US immigration stamp is enough, make sure date and A# are clear.

I-551 is sufficient

My friends wife and kids recently travelled to India on I-551 stamp on passport. They did not require any other paper. The stamp is well recognized.
