Does anyone have any experience with obtaining a European visa
when the phisical plastic "green" card is not yet available?
I've just renewed my I-551 passport stamp in Chicago (in a valid Russian passport) and I also have a valid reentry permit.
I need to go to Italy, Spain and Switzerland in the summer and I was wondering if there would be any difficulties in obtaining their visas.
The instructions on their websites do not mention anything explicitly about a passport stamp and just say that if you are A PR then you need to show a green card when applying for a visa (in fact, for Switzerland it seems that with an actual green card and a valid passport one does not even need a Swiss visa, but I doubt that it will apply to people who just have a passport stamp).
