My passport will be expiring March 2021 and I have been told that I can't travel within six months prior to that date. If I remember correctly, one of the requirements for a green card is a valid passport.
Once I get my AP and EAD, my plan is to visit my family back in Italy where I still have a residence permit (or permesso di soggiorno, it expires December this year).
My questions are: 1. Is my permesso di soggiorno/residence permit still valid even if I have been out of the country for more than a year this July? If so, then I will be renewing my passport there. If not, then I'll have to go back to where I'm from (Philippines) and do it there. 2. If I can't travel, can I still renew my passport in a Philippine embassy here in the US? Or is a green card required to do so?
Any help/advice would be really appreciated as me and my husband are stuck with a lot of uncertainties right now and hopefully get some answers that will help us immensely
