I am a US citizen who Sponsored my fathers green card in 2010. His green card is expiring oct 2020. He had to stay in India since Jan 2019 due to health conditions. With the Covid pandemic situation and his age (81) and health conditions, he is not able to travel back to the united States before the green card expiry. My father does not have any family in India to take care of him and will have to come here so that my brother and I can take care of him. What are our options for avoiding the expiry of the green card? Secondly, is there a 60 day extension on the expiry date due to Covid 19?
You should try to get in touch with the consulate and send them emails, etc., asking them their guidance and that way you have at least some proof that you are trying to get back into the USA on time, but if it goes past one year it can't be helped, you can always start a new green card if you like, not too many options here.

Thank you Rajiv and staff for helping me out with my GC process. Its been a long 12 year journey and i am glad that i was represented by one of the top immigration attorney offices. Every single application from H1, Labor, 140, 485, and then all the EAD's in between were handled so professionally.
A special thanks to Art, Heather, and Mathew for being so prompt in answering my questions.
I highly recommend everyone to use Law offices of Rajiv. S Khanna, for all the immigration matters.
Thanks,
Siva Kanumuri
