Hi Everyone,
I have a general question related to filing of I-131 Re-entry Permit.
I am a U.S. Citizen and I have a Japanese wife who obtained the residency I--551 through our marriage 8 years ago.
She needs to go back to Japan for about a year to take care of her mother's medical situation. From what I have read
in various forums, we can file I-131 so she can obtain the reentry permit which will allow her to stay there over 6 months.
My main question is can she leave the county after the I-131 filing and the biometrics gets done?
Next question: Can the reentry permit be mailed to her in Japan after I receive it here? Or do I have to request the
permit sent to a U.S. consulate office in Japan?
Last question: Is it better to leave U.S. after the reentry permit is received?
Thank you for reading.

Thank you for your quick reply.
Glad to know she can leave after the biometrics and have the permit sent here so I can
FedEx it to her later.
