    Can I re-enter USA from Europe and then fly back to my country?

    The reason I ask this question is because when I return to USA from London, the immigration officer will ask me for my plastic "green card", but I won't have it, since only two weeks will have passed. And the immigrant visa in my passport ill be null and void.

    Can I re-enter USA from Europe and then fly back to my country?

    Thank you. You said I can return to the US because I have an I-551.

    If my mother gives up her Green card, can she re-acquire it thru sister?

    Sorry, I did not make myself clear. When I said sister I meant my sister. My mother's daughter. So if my mother gives up her Green card now, she can re-apply through her daughter at a later date? And how long will that take? Thanks
