My wife is here on K3 visa, which will expire in April-08 & her I-94 is valid till Jan-09. Last month, I filed her AOS, they sent us the letter with date & time for biometrics to be taken in Aug-07.
She wants to go back her home country in Jan-08 for a month.
My questions are:
Does she need to file I-539 for visa extension before her K3 visa expires?
Does she need advanced parole before leaving?
Does she need a transit visa if her flights changes anywhere in europe?
Can she re-enter US using her K3 Visa?

plz advise.

A few things.

She may have green-card by then, if this is the case then the K-3 no longer will matter.

The K-3 expires next April, and she will be traveling next January for 1 month so should be returning next February which is befor the K-3 expires, so this should not be a problem, no extension or AP needed.

On the outside chance the AOS is still pending after the K-3 has expired, you would just file I-131 for AP in order to travel while AOS is pending.

Yes can reenter USA on the K-3 as long as the K-3 is still valid, K-3 is a MULTI entry visa.

Transit visa depends on her home country, which your profile lacks and shows her home country as N/A.
