  1. Thank you up front for any input. My wife has a I-131 pending for re entry permit as a LPR. We got a biometrics appointment notice for 1/8. Unfortunately our lawyer office was closed and it wasn't seen until 1/12 due to the holidays. We called USCIS and set up to reschedule but they said new appointment will come in email in next 30 days. Lawyer suggested to go to the local office and see if they would allow us to do a walk in. We came in and was turned away due to not having an appointment. No walk ins are allowed according to security. This was Indianapolis. Questions What's the wait timeframe for a new biometrics appointment? Is there any centers that may be nearby that will do a walk in?
  2. What would happen if we apply the N-400 and end up having to leave to Japan? Could she do the interview and oath there? We don't want to end up in a situation where we apply for N-400 and she has to wait around 12 months in USA and can't leave. Or try to avoid a special trip home.
  3. Hello, I am a US citizen. My wife is from Argentina and holds a 10 year green card. Her and I have been married and lived in the USA since 2008. She hasn't travelled outside the USA in 6 years since we had 2 kids. The only time she would have travalled before was to visit Argentina for about 1 month per year. I have received an offer to do a temperary assignment in Japan for 2.5 years. I want to take her and the kids there with me during the assignment. We have no intention of staying in Japan, We would return to USA. My company would easily provide evidence in a letter if needed. I read that with a GC and leaving the USA for long periods of time, specifically more than 1 year is grounds for abandoning her PR. So I saw there is a form for I-131. A few questions I have 1) If we apply for I-131 would we be able to go to Japan starting in Feb 2024? Is that enough time to get approval? Would this qualify for expedite? I read on USCIS website I-131 are taking 17 months to process. 2) Is an I-131 required? If my wife were to come home to USA for a month in the middle of the assignment would that satisfy her not abandoning her permanant resident status? We wil do the I-131 anyway to express our intention of returning. I think if she is gone so much during the next 2 years they will quesiton her without it. 3) Is there a danger in my wife doing this with me and having her GC revoked? Has anyone ever done something similar to this and can share their experience?
